The remains of Soda Springs, one of 49 mineral spring that attracted visitors to this area in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The springs were developed by the Longmire family, who first settled the area in 1883 after building a wagon trail from Ashford, 13 miles (21 km) away. In addition to improving the springs, the Longmires constructed a series of cabins, tents, a 5-room hotel, and hiking trails to Paradise.

By 1915 the Longmires and the National Park were no longer seeing eye-to-eye, and the Longmires leased the property to a hotelier, who improved and continued to operate the springs until the National Park Service purchased the property in 1939. You can read a bit more about the area's history here: http://bit.ly/1vkU4C4

You can visit the remains of a few mineral springs and an 1888 cabin by hiking the short and flat Trail of Shadows loop (0.7 mi/1.1 km). It's an easy walk, and there's a nice view of Mount Rainier from the meadows.

"Amazing place with great amenities. We were three families with kids and lots of games and activities to do. We had bought few games from home but realised the property had large collection of board games with table tennis and arcade as well. Our kids enjoyed a lot and we because of the hot tub. Overall I’ll definitely be booking this in future if I’m staying near Mt. Reiner. Personal recommendation, book for two nights. We only did one night and felt it was too short"

"Beautiful scenery. Clean & comfortable. "

"Great house for a little vacation"

"Great location for the park. Enjoyed the deck and house was very comfortable. Packwood is a cute little town. We had cloudy weather in the park so the mountain hid most of the time but we will need to plan a trip back!"

"Nice property, we were up to ski white pass. Good location."

"We stayed here a few nights and loved our stay. Spent some time in the national park which made it convenient to drive to in the early mornings. The location was perfect and the house was set up very nice. Feel lucky that we were able to stay here rather than in a lodge. Would highly recommend staying here if you are going to be in the area. "

"This property was great for more large family. I definitely would recommend. "

"It’s a nice and quiet spot to escape for a couple of days. "

10/10 Excellent

"Easy to find, super clean and some thoughtful amenities. The view is a peaceful and beautiful forest through a wall of windows. Wow!So close to both the Steven’s and Longmire entrances. But Sunrise is about the same as Longmire. (We liked Longmire for Copper Creek and souvenirs). Packwood was super convenient as a home base. Would come again!"
