Ridgeline Retreat

Mary and Lloyd have built something truly special here. Stunning views, magical forests, the bathtub of my dreams… it’s about as close to perfect as they come! Mary and Lloyd were wonderful, there to help you with whatever you need and very knowledgeable about the area. You can tell how much they love to host and how much they care about the property in the way they talk about it and all the wonderful attention to detail, time and effort they put into it. Couldn’t recommend a property more!

This place is so incredible it was one of our favorite stays ever. Mary and her husband have such a special piece of land. The views are incredible, the tiny cabin is so cozy, the vault toilet outhouse is super clean and nice. They provided all materials we might need like towels, a space heater, soap, and Mary even drew us a bath whenever we were ready to get cleaned up from a long day of hiking (the bathtub / deck space is unreal). The driveway getting in is long and a bit rugged through the forest but it is totally fine if you just keep a steady pace and continue on. This place feels too good to be true and from the moment we got there we’re already planning a trip back.

This place is what mountain dreams are made of. Tiny is full of simplicity and charm. Mary and Llyod are so welcoming and accommodating. I was a little chilly in Tiny and they brought me a heater, it made Tiny ultra cozy. I got the coffee and granola for breakfast and it was the best way to start my day of long hikes on Mt. Rainier. Tiny is located close to the Nisqually entrance to Mr. Rainier so if you wake up early enough, you can get into the park-no line, no waiting. I also made use of the outdoor baths, and the experience has ruined me for all other baths. There is nothing better than a warm bath watching the sunset behind the ridgeline of trees. I came for a weekend respite of peace and quiet and I found it. This is an experience I'll never forget, and hopefully will have a chance to do again!
