This was a great, rustic location right next to the entrance of the park. Easy to park and access. Cozy and great for a hiking couple looking to spend most of the day in the park and then have a simple meal in their cabin.

Great staff at check in - quick, friendly and helpful. Excellent location next to NP entrance. Cabins very clean, updated yet woodsy/cabin design. Spacious, quiet and comfortable. Highly recommend to those visiting Mount Rainier NP.

really great location for getting to and from the national park. amenities in the room are pretty basic but clean and comfortable!
We booked a premium cottage and it was the perfect getaway, steps from the Nisqually Entrance into Mount Rainier National Park. The cabin was spacious, had a mini fridge, and was clean. The beds were comfortable and the staff were kind. It was the perfect spot to relax before/after exploring Mount Rainier.
