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.

This is such a beautiful place to stay. We travelled to Washington so that I could hike in Mt. Rainier National Park, and this house is conveniently located just minutes away from it. The home is clean, spacious, comfortable, and well appointed. The owners are very responsive and helpful. And the five acres of property in which it is located are beautiful and peaceful. I would love to stay here again. I almost enjoyed the home and acreage as much as the hiking!

Girls hiking trip

Great property in a great location about an hour from most park entrances. The house was stocked with everything we needed. Dont buy spices!! Beds were very comfy after a long day of exploring. Very clean and we enjoyed the quiet location. We would stay again. Loved the hammock on the porch and the double glider bench.

Husband and I have stayed here every year for about 6 years for our anniversary. It has been 10 out of 10 every time! This is a great property with all you need for your mountain home away from home. Lovely scenery around the home and property, complete with a little creek! Excellent jump off point for many wonderful hiking trails as well!

We really loved the house! The pictures were accurate but the house looked even better when seeing it in person. It was also very spacious. Everything we needed was provided. The kitchen is very well equipped and there are plenty of towels in the bathrooms. Having shampoo, conditioner, and body wash was much appreciated as well as a hair dryer. The beds were the most comfortable ever and there were plenty of extra blankets. It was very convenient to do laundry as our stay was part of a larger trip to the National Parks. We did have a question during our stay and Kim, the owner responded promptly. We would definitely stay here again if traveling to the area. Also the house is close to the town of Packwood and near the Steven’s Canyon entrance to Mt Rainier.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Grenfell

Host profile image
This property is very special to our family as we all enjoy the mountains and getting outdoors. My husband John and I both grew up in Hood River, OR and wanted our kids to experience the outdoors and small town experience. Packwood has delivered all this and more. We hope you too will visit this special place and all it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to be in the mountains and love being located so close to Mt. Rainer and White Pass Ski Resort where both of our children, and many friends and family, have learned to ski.

What makes this property unique

The first time we drove into Packwood and looked up at Mt. Rainer we fell in love. We knew within the first 5 minutes of walking our property with Hinkle Tinkle creek running through it, the beautiful view of Goat Rocks, Johnson Peak and the short proximity to Cowlitz River, Mt. Rainer and White Pass Ski Resort that we had to have it.
