Lots of space for 11 of us adult hikers! Such a fun place that brought back childhood memories of school life! Plenty of storage and room in the two bathrooms! Huge well stocked kitchen! Very friendly locals and fabulous bartender Julie aka “Purple” at Headquarters Tavern across the street. They have yummy pizza and the best wings ever!

Our group of 16 family members from 8-75 had a fun and relaxed time at the Schoolhouse. Luckily, the weather was warm and moderate (unlike our first time when it was super hot) -- so sleeping was comfortable. The gym is a big draw for our family so it was in frequent use for basketball, pickleball, dodge ball, ultimate frisbee, and various improvised games. The kitchen is great for a large group and the serving counter is really useful. The chalkboards in the main dining are surprisingly popular!The lake is just a short walk away and good for swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding -- or just hanging out.I appreciate that the Schoolhouse is not "fancy" -- so much more relaxing and casual.Thanks for another fun stay!!

Stanley Family Reunion!

We had an amazing long weekend in Mineral, Washington. There were 18 of us in total and there was plenty of space to move around and hang out. It was a rainy weekend, so we were extra thankful for the gym space. The place was clean and well stocked. We made a ton of memories and can’t wait to go back!

Family reunion for large family

We had an amazing stay at Mineral schoolhouse. My adult siblings with families of their own all fit in the very sizeable rooms comfortably with plenty of room and interesting things to keep us entertained and active. We played pickleball in the gym, enjoyed a stage performance put on by the kids, played bingo, watched tv in the family room, played "school", walked to the lake, pretended to be lunch ladies, rang the school classes bell, sent their parents to the principal's office, etc. So much fun and was such an interesting venue for us. Everyone wants to book again!! Super close to Mt Rainier park, hiking, and EZ time horseback riding that we also enjoyed.

Super cool property!

This property was so awesome! A converted schoolhouse from the last century? Yes, please! We were in the area for the Mt Rainier half marathon. There was 19 of us, mostly teenage boys plus chaperones. This house was perfect. They had a great time exploring the house, writing on the chalkboards, we played hide-and-seek in the dark and had a death match of dodgeball in the gym. We had such a blast in this home. Perfect for big groups.

Large, fun, unique space to gather with a group

Our recent stay included 5 families with kids 15-22 years old. The schoolhouse provides so much space for families to spread out and have their own privacy, along with awesome group gathering spaces both inside the building and outside on the grounds. We even played pickleball in the gymnasium (brought our own portable net and paddles). We enjoyed games in the yard and stories at night by the fire pit. The kitchen is big with tons of space to cook and prepare food. Ovens worked great. Kitchen is well stocked with cookware. If you have a large group, you may want to bring some extra portable outdoor chairs. We had a great time.

The School House Family Reunion

The School House was just as it was listed. Perfect place for our family, the kids had a blast in the gym and come to find out dodge balls and basketballs were there ready for play. Had some deer on the property daily which was an added bonus. Adults played card games on the ample table space and stayed up late telling stories. Only cons were the smell of propane at the stove which was noted on instructions but we ended up keeping kitchen door open most of the time because we were cautious. The kayaks were stored in an area where birds frequently nested and the group didn't want to mess around with cleaning them to take them to the lake. Storing those somewhere where the remain clean would be an improvement. The cute little red bench in the front of the house had a rotted leg/peg that broke free of its repair when grandpa sat in it but he was not hurt! Might have been more for decoration, which could be our bad. Don't let the cons scare you away we would stay here again if we are invited back, lots of space for our family and we all loved it! Great memories!

Best ever family reunion location

The layout and amenities of the schoolhouse are unique and wonderful. It is a fun place to get together as a whole family, and we loved feeling like there was plenty of space when we were doing group activities or just relaxing. It feels charmingly old-fashioned, but doesn’t lack any modern comforts. There is plenty to do within a half hour drive (we enjoyed Alder Lake, Northwest Trek Wildlife Park, and Mt Rainier National Park), and trips to and from the airport are not too long. Some thoughts on the amenities: - The classroom bedrooms are huge! Beds are comfortable and shelves and outlets are plentiful. Provided space heaters kept us cozy. - The commercial kitchen is great when cooking for a crowd. There are plenty of kitchen tools, utensils, bowls and plates, and more. The range is old-fashioned but works perfectly. - The gym is amazing. The adults in our crew had a great time playing knockout and family dodgeball after the kids were asleep, and the toddlers loved running around. It really makes the whole place stand out. - The main eating/gathering area is spacious and well equipped. The many board games are great, the stage was fun for activities we had planned, and the TV was modern enough to hook up to our devices. We moved couches from the bedrooms, and it was a perfect gathering place. - The covered area between the gym and the main schoolhouse facilitated staging activities and loading cars very well. We loved this location and can't recommend it enough!

We had a great family trip with our kids, spouses and 6 grandkids (14 total). The schoolhouse trip will be something the cousins talk about for years to come. They loved running the halls and the gym with the highlight for them. The lake is in walking distance.
