Perfect basecamp for Mt Rainier

We loved our stay here! It was the perfect location, literally a couple hundred yards from the entrance to the park. The nearby Nisqually river was fun also. Well-stocked kitchen, fun fire pit and hot tub, comfy beds and plenty of room for our group of 9. Highly recommend!

Nisqually Beauty

The cabin was incredible. We loved the spaciousness of it. The hot tub was wonderful after a day of hiking. The place was clean, beds were comfortable, water pressure is shower was great. It was so close to the Mt Rainier entrance, it was a breeze getting into the park. It was exactly as advertised and we would definitely stay again!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay. Very spacious, clean and comfy beds. Well stocked kitchen/house. Tap water was refreshing/great for drinking - so nice not to have to but bottled. Enjoyed our beautiful evening walks along the river a black away and great location to Mt Rainier entrance. Enjoyed close by casual restaurants. Just make sure to stock up at grocery store as none close by (small convenient store is)

Thanks for helping in making great memories

The house was very well stocked and comes with a beautiful piece of property around us. It felt very cozy even though it had lots of room for our group of 4 to spread out. So close to Nisqually entrance into Mt Ranier Park which made it super convenient. Highly recommend this house for your stay while visiting Mt Rainier Park.

Beautiful cabin in the best location

We had the best time during our stay! The house is beautiful and PERFECTLY located literally a minute from the Nisqually entrance. It’s well equipped with everything you need- kitchen supplies, bedding, even sticks for s’mores by the bonfire. The host is super responsive and we loved the contactless check in /check out process. We had the best stay.

Great Weekend by the Mountain

We love Mt Rainier so much! And this cabin was a perfect home base for exploration. Nice indoor and outdoor space and close walk down to the river. My little niece left behind an iPad in a drawer in the cabin and Christy was very kind and helpful in getting it back to us. Thanks so much!

Doorstep of Mt. Rainier National Park

What a nice place! It was right outside the Nisqually Entrance to Mt. Rainier so it was easy to get to the hiking trails early. The house had a nice layout with enough room for everyone. The hot tub was appreciated after a long day hiking. We would stay here again if we are in the area!

Great Family Getaway

The descriptions are spot on. The house was actually more spacious than I thought. The amenities were perfect. The kitchen is well stocked and we had all the tools we needed. The beds were comfortable. The hot tub was exactly what we needed and no chlorine smell was a plus. Thank you for a very comfortable stay. Definitely one of the best stays I’ve had with a vacation rental.

Great spot

Awesome experience overall. The owners where very communicative and had all the information we needed before we even got to the home. The location is awesome and is less then a mile from the park. I would come here again if we came back to Rainer. The house rules where also very easy to follow.

Truly beautiful cabin just outside the gate of Mt Rainier. The cabin was fully stocked with everything you need. My whole family, who were visiting from abroad, enjoyed it so much. Make sure you make smores at the fire pit. The kids loved it.

Dream home

I went to the Buchanans home for a get away weekend with a group of friends and it was amazing! The house is beautiful and clean; the kitchen is fully equipped! We felt like in a a Disney movie, it was so beautiful. Plus, the National Park is a block away which was great for a morning hike. I felt in love with the place, and Christy and her dad were vey nice and always responded my emails.
