The Penguin Cabin is exactly as described. It is clean, spacious and has so many amenities. We hiked, played games and watched movies. The cabin is conveniently located near Mount Rainier National Park. Communication with the host was excellent. We had an exceptional stay at the Penguin Cabin.
The property was very clean, comfortable and inviting. The kitchen has all the utensils one needs and the rooms are well stocked with hosery and linen. We had a wonderful time especially with the pool table and karaoke. Also, the fact that this property is located very close to the nisqually entrance mt rainier makes it convenient for those planning to visit mt Ranieri national park. We higly recommend this place.
We very much enjoyed our stay. The home is spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need, beds were comfortable. Communication from the host was timely and thorough. Thank you.
Great location and very clean. Somewhat dated but very clean. Could use some kitchen supply updates but we found everything we needed to make breakfast.
The house is a lot bigger than I expected. It's cozy and fun with a group. The location is unbeatable. It's quite and just 5 mins from Mt Rainier NP. Matt and crew were awesome and super helpful. They were responsive and jumped in quickly when needed.
We only stayed one night but overall it was a great stay

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Our booking was somehow overlooked and when we arrived an hour past check in time the unit had not been cleaned/prepared.When the host was contacted by the vrbo site he contacted us and apologized. He then found a cleaning crew to come in asap to clean while we were out. When we returned it felt clean and more comfortable.
A friend and I really enjoyed our stay before heading to Mount Rainier. The beds were super comfortable, and this would be a great place to stay for families planning to explore the park. The home was located right by the Nisqually entrance. Communication with the host was great, and overall wonderful experience.
Good location to mt rainier, bedrooms small but bedsizes queens that are preferred, nice to have cupboards labeled so easiy to find, need 12 oz glasses, plenty of drinking water
It was a god place to stay after hiking at Mount Rainier. Really liked the kitchen. There was a little problem with the heater that the owner offered to fix immediately. And there wasn’t enough hot water to use the bathtub successfully.
As a family of seven the Penguin house had plenty of room for our family was in a great location for our visit to Mt Rainier! Mark, communicated with us through out the check in process making it super easy! Highly recommend!
This house was set up so perfectly! You could stay home for your entire trip and be completely comfortable and entertained! The hosts thought of absolutely everything from karaoke to board games. The hosts were friendly and communicative and a dream to work with. Highly recommend!
Had a great time with my family. We can really feel that the owners put time and effort to make this place a great place to stay. It has almost everything you can ask for. I would definitely visit again.
