Our rental property was once a mini Rail Road with full size locomotive's, train cars, pumper cars and more. My dad & grandpa layed all the tracks & put together the buildings in the 1970's. Once done my grandma sold tickets to the tourist and my grandpa ran the engine around the 7 acre oval track pulling a train car full of happy tourist through the woods over the train bridge and past the big water tower back to their vehicles so they could finish their journies with a drive to Mt. Rainier. There is a lot of history on this property for our family and we hope by sharing it with others they will be able to experience some fun here as well. Our quiet time is 10pm

Many water birds and other birds call this home. You may spot a great blue heron or crane as they stretch their wings for several minutes soaking up the sun. Keep an eye open for the bald eagles that have a nest in a tree at the shore.
Osprey and Bald Eagles are often seen soaring above, before diving into the lake to catch a fish.
The lake is stocked every May. The fishing is good here and the lake has a reputation for being especially great for Large Mouth Bass fishing. If you love to fish, then bring your fishing gear and pole.

This place is magical with spacious campsites among pristine fields, gardens, and woodlands. It felt like camping in our own private park. It’s a beautiful drive in every direction and only 15 minutes from Ike Kinswa. We will be back next summer with our paddle boards.

Jeff's camp sites are amazing! Site 1 is nestled right next to a pond with a lovely babbling brook. We saw a bunch of salamanders in the pond too!
There were other campers near by, even a big group that had three sites, but we never had a problem with noise or anything like that. If we hadn't been able to see them, we wouldn't have even known they were there. The landscape is beautiful with a wonderful variety of trees and other plant life. Jeff stopped by, introduced himself and told us a bit about the work he's done and plans to do to improve the place. We had a great time here and will *definitely* stay again. Thank you so much Jeff!

Notable campgrounds
- Best for a wilderness experience: Mowich Lake
- Best for old growth trees: Ohanapecosh
- Best for groups: Cougar Rock
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Though RVs are allowed to park at Cougar Rock, Ohanapecosh, and White River campgrounds, they have no electrical, water, or grey water hookups.
- Each campsite is limited to a maximum of two vehicles, two tents, and/or six campers. Most campsites are big enough for only one tent and up to four people.
- Campsites at Cougar Rock, Ohanapecosh, and White River campgrounds can all be booked in advance online, with availability opening on a six-month rolling basis. The sites at Mowich Lake are available only on a first-come, first-served basis
When to go
Mount Rainier National Park is open year-round, though heavy winter snow typically closes all but the Nisqually Entrance. At this time, roads at higher elevations may be closed or require snow chains or winter tires to access. July and August are busy times, when popular parking lots and entrances come with long waits. Aim for a mid-week visit, or go during the late spring or early fall to beat the crowds.
Know before you go
- The visitor center at the Longmire Museum is open year-round, while the Henry M. Jackson Memorial Visitor Center at Paradise closes on winter weekdays. The Ohanapecosh Visitor Center and Sunrise Visitor Center are open in summer.
- When making a summer visit, try to arrive early (before 10am) or later in the day (after 2:30pm) to avoid peak crowds and wait times.
- Concessions are sold at Longmire, Paradise, and Sunrise. You can also stock up in the nearby towns of Ashford and Packwood.
- Cell service is unreliable in Mount Rainier National Park, but there is wifi in the Jackson Visitor Center at Paradise.
