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.

RV/tent site · Sleeps 5 · Vehicles under 20 ft
The creek camp site is tucked on the back corner of the property and a little more private than the RV site. We are now offering a shared porta potty for guest.  A key for the porta potty will be inside a glass mason jar at your camp site or in a glass mason jar hanging in the wood shed to the right of porta potty. The space is long with different options for tent set up. Seating and a fire pit are available along with wood bundles for purchase.  Wood can be purchased on line or after arrival.  Creek camp is further away but traffic noise during the day is possible with the Park entrance being so close.

We enjoyed our stay at Wilderness Path campground. It was in a convenient location to the park and everything was as advertised. The owner Crystal was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed 2 action packed days at Mt. Rainier and would recommend this campsite to anyone looking for a cozy place to set up camp.

We pulled in after midnight due to a long day exploring. The host was very informative when we sent a message asking how to find our spot after dark. Very clean portable toilet. Simply exactly what we needed for an overnight, close to the National Park for an early start. Very well maintained camp areas

Wilderness Path Corner Camp
This was a great camping spot! Literally 1 mile from the entrance to Rainier NP. It was clean and quiet. Porta-Potty was well-maintained. Having a picnic table and a little rocking chair int he site was helpful. They also put out a trash can and emptied it for us halfway through our one week stay which was awesome. This particular site has a big cedar tree to pitch your tent under so it stayed dry even in a bit of rain.

Cozy camp with a site for a RV (shorter trailer or Sprinter) truck, or tent camping…they were all represented the nights we were there. Five minutes from the SW park entrance, five minutes from Ashford restaurants, less than an hour from Paradise Visitors Center and the classic trails. I would take Crystal’s over the unlikely opportunity in the park.

Super easy to get to and a short drive to Mt Rainer. We were in the Creek camp site and thought that the Corner camp site looked nice too. Host was helpful with recommending nice swim spots for the afternoon.

Wilderness Path Corner Camp
We stayed in a campervan at Crystal's site. The site was a nice setting in the forest, and next to an open area with a small creek. The site had access to water, a picnic table and 2 chairs. It was a little tough to find, but Crystal was quick to respond to help us find it. The site is at a great location, a mile from the Mt. Rainier National Park entrance.

Signage could be better - our email said we were 'site 1' but there was no site numbers. We were confused as to if we had the entire section under the trees near the road or if this was meant to be 2 RV spots. Apart from that, we had a comfortable stay.

The only decent RV space was #1. If you parked your RV with the door and awning away from the traffic noise then the power/water were on the wrong side of the RV. The other RV spaces had no shade and were just out in a field. Crystal always answered our question promptly and was full of advice about her RV camp and tips that helped to access Mt Ranier park.

What a great spot to camp. Despite people commenting on the road noise, it didn’t bother us as we were out hiking and exploring most of the day anyway. The campsites were lovely and spacious and you would hardly know that there were other campers there. Crystal is delightful and gave us some interesting background history on their family’s land and tips for the park. I plan to return in the future!

We loved the convenience of finding a spot in Ashford the evening before heading to Pardise where we started our Rainier climb. We were pleasantly surprised by both the picnic table and fire pit and nearby porta potty which was just fine. We noticed a few other sites privately nestled amongst the trees that would have been lovely. We also appreciated the corn hole game near by and space to play had we wanted to. We will stay again
