Great small cabin just outside Mt Ranier NP

This little cabin was perfect for a place to relax after exploring Mt Ranier NP. The cabin is located about 100 yards from the park entrance. It was clean and comfortable. The only issue was we could not get the TV to work properly. It seems the WiFi was limited and the TV kept “buffering”…but we were not there for the TV…we were there for the park.

I am used to nicer hotels and while I knew this was a cabin, I didn’t realize all the challenges. The area has been having a drought and water may not be available in the motel at times due to it. Was not aware it could be an issue before hand. We arrived while they were experiencing a power outage, but on top of that there was no water bc they use well water (no electricity no pump). Cabins do not have generator backup. I just wasn’t prepared for all the challenges. We were about to leave, wasn’t comfortable being caught after dark in an unknown location without electricity and a working toilet, but luckily power came back on. Location was great because it was right by the entrance to the national park. Staff was super friendly!

Nice stay

We stayed in junior suite. Room is clean but little bit dark. Shower room is very tight. No internet connection. After seeing the mixed review, overall experience is better than my expectation. Location is good but 4 miles away from restaurants.

I stayed here for my first time the first week of August 2025. The front desk guy was so kind and welcoming. I drove from over 6 hrs away and arrived much earlier than i anticipated. They coordinated so I could get into my cabin earlier than my check out time. I was so thankful as I had been up and driving for a long time. The cabin was clean, the lighting was soft (I am audhd and hate big lights) and the mattress was very comfy. the frame was squeaky but the mattress outshined that small detail. I have nothing bad to say about this property. I travel for work and really value a quiet space to relax after a long day. I often encounter loud people but this place was so serene. It is not fancy and the wifi goes out because of the remoteness of the cabin. There is no cell service there. If you go closer to the lodge part, you get better wifi signal. I personally enjoyed no service. I was able to disconnect and enjoy the peace and quiet without distraction. 100/10 stars.

Did the trick for a one night stay close to Paradise! Stayed in Deluxe Cabin and it was clean and shower worked well. Small fridge and microwave w/ coffee maker/coffee made it convenient for simple meals. Easy parking as well.
