The best tiny home rentals in Mount Rainier

You’ll know Mount Rainier National Park when you see it—the hulking volcano rises more than 14,000 feet above sea level, dominating the western Washington horizon for miles around.

Here you’ll find 473 camping sites scattered across three of the four quadrants of the park, including Cougar Rock in the southwest, Ohanapecosh in the southeast, and White River, in the northeast. In addition, 13 tent sites sit at the walk-in Mowich Lake campground to the northwest. Beyond that, numerous backcountry sites are scattered on and around the mountain.

Weekend Trip to The Khohay Farm

Staying at the Sweetheart Cabin was the PERFECT autumn weekend getaway! It was stormy and rainy outside a lot of the time, but that just made the cozy cabin even better with the wood stove, string lights, candles, and blankets. The cabin as well as communal spaces were clean and everyone was so kind. They said that the number one rule was that we felt at-home :) Thank you so so much Jenel and Khohay, my partner and I had a beautiful time at your farm <3

Mary and Lloyd truly have such a wonderful property and were incredible hosts! The stay was cozy, beautiful and most importantly dreamy. This was the perfect locations for an engagement trip for my fiancé and I. The views and the incredible outdoor tub was the icing on top. We will absolutely be back again to enjoy this magical location.

Our stay was even more magical than we could have imagined. The drive up felt like we were in Jurassic park (in the best way possible) and the views were insane. The cabin was cozy (heater included!) and the toilet and bath were extremely clean. Mary and Lloyd thought of all the details from a cute handwashing station to bath amenities (towels, soap, bath salts). We loved getting to know them and their sweet pup Leo. Thank you for the great stay! When we come back to the PNW we will definitely look to rebook.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Sweetheart Cabin for a night during our first trip to rainier and it was excellent! Khohay was super friendly and talkative and an amazing host. The cabin was super comfortable and cozy. We heard elk at night too which was super cool! Definitely recommend for anyone trying to escape the city and explore Rainier and the surrounding nature.

The tiny home is the perfect place to rest your head on the best land with the best hosts. The sweet tenants (goats, sheep, chickens, and frenchies) are the icing to the cake. I can’t wait to find a reason to come back!

Weekend Trip to Secluded Ridgeline Retreat

Its like a scavenger hunt to make it to the cabin which was so much fun! The road was very passable for our low-profile sedan. The property and view is absolutely stunning! The tiny cabin felt plenty roomy and the decor was quaint and the bed was so comfy. We thoroughly enjoyed a glass of wine and the sunset on the AMAZING cliff's-edge patio before taking a nice log soak next to the most beautiful view you'll ever see! Its like a dream. A bucket-list experience, for sure! We woke up to a rain and lightning storm rolling through and it was great laying in bed and watching it through the glass door. The hosts, Mary and Lloyd, were beyond kind helpful and hospitable. They even brought us coffee and homemade muffins in the morning! The outhouse was clean amd smelled great. Everything seems brand new. The park was so close but we wish we had more time just to enjoy the cabin, bathtub, and landscape. We even asked about coming back the next weekend but they were booked. Multiple friends have asked us where the cabin is and how to book; the pics are that amazing! Please love and respect this place. Its so special and even as it blows up in popularity, I hope it stays the slice of absolute heaven it is now🩷

This place is fantastic and I couldn’t recommend the experience enough! The quiet and seclusion make it a perfect place to relax and getaway. The location is close to the national park for good days hiking, and far enough where you can easily get away from all the crowds and end the day soaking in a sunset view with perfect outdoor secluded bath. In addition to all that, the hosts are the nicest and most hospitable people ever. Great location, great property, and great people!

Mary and Lloyd (and their dog Leo 🐶) were such welcoming hosts! Their property was spectacular and the set up allows for the most gorgeous views from the deck of the tiny house and bath house. The bed is very comfortable and everything was clean and very well maintained. They have WiFi, power, outdoor path lighting, and a selection of hiking guidebooks for visitors. If you’re going to stay here, be sure to make time to enjoy the tub at sunset or under the starry sky. It’s quite an experience! The road up the mountain is well maintained, but steep. It could be a challenge if it’s wet, but we had no trouble with our rented camper van. We will definitely stay here again if we ever end up in the area!

I stayed at the Sweetheart cabin & it is just the cutest!! Located at the top of Jenel & Khohays beautiful farm, you get such an amazing sunset. Lots of goats, 2 of the cutest puppies & a pig!! While the farm is amazing, Jenel & Khohay are even moreso. Both so welcoming and sweet. I couldn't recommend staying with them more.

My partner and I had an amazing stay at Jenel and Khohay's property - spent one night in the Sweetheart Cabin. We loved spending time with the animals, picking cherries, and relaxing on the deck listening to birdsong. Our hosts greeted us, showed us around and made us feel very welcome. The cabin was comfy, cozy and well set-up, and the outhouse was clean and very convenient to the cabin. We really appreciated the communal kitchen and bathroom space, had an amazing send-off breakfast of fresh farm eggs and espresso. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Weekend Trip to Cozy Snug Home @ Mt Rainier W/ View

We loved this tiny house! It's in a neighborhood but has a fence which provides privacy and allows for a stunning mountain view! I liked how the host left snacks for us and had a water filter in the fridge! It was well stocked including a French press, keurig, tea kettle, hot plates and cooking utensils. Having a fridge and microwave were also nice. The full bathroom was great as well - it was nice to take a hot shower after hiking. We loved it! Would absolutely stay again!

Khokay we are still dreaming about your beautiful tiny house and farm. You made it so comfortable for us, it was such a peaceful space. I love your doggies, fresh eggs 💕, the chickens, goat, sheep, and the potential of seeing elk! The tiny house had everything we needed and more. I enjoyed doing some yoga in the morning with a cup of tea. Also the outhouse was surprisingly amazing! 🤩 I am sad we ran out of time to try out the gym, sauna, farmers cold plunge and bike rentals… but we will be back for more later! Thanks again ❤️💕

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.
