This is the perfect little cabin base camp to relax between hikes at Mt Rainier! Cabin #2 has a great loft for sleeping and conveniently has a hot tub on the front deck. The cabins are stocked with great amenities like a cast iron, hot plates, and a kettle, plus a fire pit outside. You’re also a quick drive to a couple of solid restaurants.

We stayed here last summer and loved it just as much! The location is perfect- very quiet and well kept. Rainier can be so challenging in the summer and staying in Ashford gave us an easy, well rested early start. Seriously- we entered the park a little after 7am and the lot at Paradise was almost full. Getting up on the trails with less crowds and before the heat of the day is a game changer. We love the cabin and the hot tub. Stay here— you won’t regret it!

Weekend Trip to The Village at Rainier

The Beaver cabin was adorable, clean, simple and just what we needed! My ten year old was delighted by the loft beds, I loved the swing and the hot tub and fire pit made the place far more than just a place to sleep for the night. The beautiful artistic touches around the property were lovely too, and Janet was very responsive. Thanks for a great stay!

We loved our stay! We were in the Raven Cabin, which is tucked towards the back of the property. Every cabin seemed secluded from the next – we stayed overnight two nights and didn't come across any other guests, despite no vacancies. The property itself is kept very nicely, and relaxing in the hot tub pre- and post-hike was splendid. Less than two miles from the park entrance! We're already talking about staying again!

This little cabin was adorable! It was exactly what my friends and I needed for our trip- a warm place to rest after a long day in the National Park. The hot tub was a dream after a long day of hiking! It’s also close to a couple good restaurants, coffee shops and ice cream.

I loved my time here in this lil cabin. I came here to do a big dent on the book I've been writing before the publication deadline. The space really helped me stay cozy, feel inspired, and was so close to many beautiful walking spots. It was simple and perfect for just me for those three nights. I wish I would have stayed more and I hope to return later! Random things I really appreciated: the delicious faucet water, many hooks for drying rain jacket and other items, good coffee machine, simple kitchenette, comfy bed, warm and simple heating system, good parking. Note to future traveler - the Google Maps will take you to the wrong place (it took me past the cabin and up a private driveway that was actually west/straight above the space). Note about walking in the neighborhood - there is an aggressive dog up the street northwest of the property. It was locked up most of the time in its trailer, so it usually was a non issue. When it did charge at me one evening, I stood calmly, didn't move, talked in a high pitch tone, and the owner quickly came out to get it. Unfortunately, another dog did get pretty badly attacked by that same dog during my stay. If you have kiddos or dogs with you, be careful.

My husband and I were not able to fully enjoy this little nook of cuteness due to a cat emergency bringing us back home way sooner than intended. I’d love to come back and soak in the hottub and look at the stars after a day of hiking. The place was very clean and the bed comfortable. Communication was clear, and Janet was very helpful.

The best cabins in Mount Rainier with hot tubs guide

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.
