Thank you for the wonderful review Chris. We are thrilled to hear you loved your stay at Hinkle Tinkle Hideaway. We hope to have you back in the future.
Great place to stay when visiting Mt. Rainier. Clean and just as described. Would be perfect for a family with kids. Really enjoyed the all season room.
Kim thought of every possible creature comfort that a traveler might want. How she got the elk family to come through the backyard just as we were having dinner, I will never know What a peaceful place!
This house is the perfect home away from home and close to Mt. Ranier national park. The kitchen was fully stocked (I especially appreciated the food storage, including Pyrex and tin foil) Beds were comfortable, but a little on the soft side for us. Top-of-the-line washer and dryer that let us do a load of laundry while we sat in the sunroom, reading or simply enjoying the view. The property is beautiful and serene. Check in was a breeze. I highly suggest this home if you're looking for a place to relax and refresh.

Thank you for the wonderful review Alina. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and enjoyed all that Hinkle Tinkle Hideaway had to offer you. Kindly, Kim
Great place. Plenty of room, comfortable beds, clean and a very well stocked kitchen! It was also in a great location. Close proximity to Mr Ranier National Park as well as other local hiking trails. Would definitely stay there again.
The host couldn’t have been nicer. The issue wasn’t with her at all. I was just disappointed in the place itself. It was a little outdated and could use some fresh improvements, I thought it was going to be nicer than it was. Also, I thought it was priced extremely high for what we got, and the area that it was in. It was just 5 miles west of Packwood, but in a spotty neighborhood. Overall, it had a clean bed and bathroom, and that’s all we needed. So, thank you for that.
The house was very clean and cozy. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was nice. The kitchen was very well equipped for cooking and there was plenty of space for our family. We enjoyed the personal touches like the toiletries, scented candles, lots of warm blankets, and fresh, local coffee.

Amazing home in Packwood! This felt like a home away from home, we didn’t want to leave! Great amenities and plenty of supplies to make a longer stay feel more comfortable. Highly recommend staying at the Hinkle Tinkle Hideaway!
This was our second time staying at this property and still highly recommend it. We enjoyed our stays in the fall and in the summer. Great location, clean and stocked.
This was a fantastic place to stay for our family, for a little trip to Mount Rainier. It had everything we could possibly need. It was clean and has a very well stocked kitchen. We'll definitely stay again.

Hi Tessa, thank you for the wonderful review. We are so glad to hear your enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to having you back in the future.
This was a great location - close to Packwood, and not far from the National Park. The house was clean, kitchen was well stocked with appliances, cooking utensils, dishes, etc. Very comfortable as a home base for day trips into the park.
We had a great stay at the Hinkle Tinkle Hideaway as a home base for visiting Mount Rainier! Anything you could ever need was provided in the house and the beds are super comfortable. We also had a good time playing with some of the outdoor items. We would definitely stay again.
Excellent property. Well stocked with whatever you need and very reaponsive host. Great for a weekend or longer. Lots to do at the property with lawn games, campfire, or just relaxing. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for something near Mt. Rainer or just to relax in any season.
