We needed a one night stop and really enjoyed this location. Sadly, we didn't have time to enjoy the hot tub but we did get to enjoy a movie and some peace and quiet. Great little spot and we really enjoyed it.

Cabin was clean, comfortable, and well stocked with essentials. The decor was fun! It is in a peaceful setting. We sat on the deck a few times but didn't use the hot tub even though it looked very inviting. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at the cottage. The place is fully stocked with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. The deck overlooks the beautiful trees and the setting is very peaceful. The location is great for visiting the surrounding areas. The hot tub was an added bonus after a long day of sight seeing. We even got a visit from local wildlife!

Carpenters Cottage is amazing! Clean, welcoming and beautiful views. This place felt like being at home had a warm comfort feel about it. Having a washer & dryer was a plus because we went home with all clean clothes. I give this place a 10 out of 10. Cannot wait to book this place again. Jim & Sandra B.

About the host

Hosted by Dustin Salisbury

Host profile image
I was in education for 22 years and three years ago decided to start a remodeling, construction and property management business since we've had several rental properties over the years. I decided to try out an AirBNB at our 2 bed cottage to see how it went. 1 year later, we've been very busy and it's fun to meet people from all over the world and help them see our little piece of Heaven, called the Pacific Northwest (PNW)!
We've hosted guests from Central Mexico, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Michigan, Italy, Canada, California, Texas, Florida, Idaho, Ohio, NY, Montana, S. Dakota, AZ, NV, NY, WA and of course Oregon as well as many other states.

Why they chose this property

I chose this area in Rainier for our rental because I grew up here...200 yards down the road, we owned the property already, it's a beautiful area near the coast, the mountains, the city, the country, Seattle, the Gorge and so many other areas!

What makes this property unique

I think my property is unique because I tried to focus a theme on the history of our family, the logging in the area, and the legacy of ancestors.
