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.

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!

Great getaway spot

Spacious, property isnt close to anything else so its fairly quiet except for the road noise which is really not a lot. All appliances are modern and wonderful. Nothing was lacking. Surrounding scenery is super green and vibrant. Squirrels in the area, we saw 3 deer walk through the yard one evening, and even an elk. Stocked with all the pots, pans, and spices youd probably ever want. Very nice wrap around porch. 7 minutes from the town proper of Packwood. 30-40 minutes from Nisqually entrance to the park, and even less to the Stevens Canyon entrance.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Grenfell

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.
