I stayed in the cabin for two nights and had a wonderful experience. Everything was spotless and well maintained. The cabin was fully equipped with helpful amenities like a dishwasher, stove, refrigerator, microwave, and coffee machine, which made the stay very convenient. Room service did a great job, and it was so nice to come back from hiking and find everything clean and ready. The private jacuzzi inside the room was perfect for relaxing after a long day outdoors. There was also a grill outside, which made it easy to cook dinner and enjoy the peaceful setting. The location was excellent, very close to the entrance of Mount Rainier National Park, making it ideal for exploring. Overall, the cabin was comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully equipped. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Had a very enjoyable stay. Just watch out for snow falling off the roof on a snowy day. Got a load down my neck going down the stairs lol. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

We had a too-short pre-Christmas large family stay, with a very nice better-than-expected first ski day of the winter up at White Pass for some of us. Our suite, room and cabin were comfy and clean, for all 7 of us, and one dog, too. I can’t wait to go back!

Excellent stay, wish we spend more nights in the cabin. Liked · NB: We've stayed in a cabin, not lodge. Location: Close to Mt. Rainier NP ( Stevens Canyon Entrance ) Cabin: It's basically a suite, bedroom is not a separate room. However enough space for couple. (There are more spacious offerings, if interested.) This place has the best-equipped kitchen along our route. Grill outside.

It’s a quiet place to stay and about 10 minutes to the Gateway of mount Rainier. Rooms are clean , place is surrounded by nature and is about 5 minutes from downtown where one can have their food, though limited options. It’s perfect stay to explore mount Rainier. Service is friendly and professional. However we couldn’t get printer provided at reception when we needed it badly. The most tourists start from Ashford, so it’s advised to stay at Packwood. You'll avoid the long queue when you head to Paradise. Room includes two double beds, WiFI, flat TV ,refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, heater and air-conditioning. No complementary breakfast is available.

First off- I pulled the photos from their webpage because I forgot to take any, and I feel that their photos are truly what the experience was and they are accurate. Stayed here overnight after boarding at White Pass. The location is perfect for outdoor recreation near White Pass ski area. I loved that it was still close enough the hub of Packwood. We booked the Deluxe Cabin w/ jetted tub and it was absolutely worth it. There was enough space (and warmth) for two people to dry out all of their snow gear and still have space to relax. I’m a big fan of a jetted tub and this delivered. It was clean and functional! The whole space was clean, beds were comfortable, and check-in was easy. 10/10 I would book here again.

My group stayed at the lodge for the weekend and we rented the entire hotel. Lisa, the manager, was amazing and helped with everything. The cabins are beautiful, new, and very well maintained. The hotel is spotless. My family stayed in the two-bedroom suite, and we had plenty of space. I highly recommend this property for winter fun at White Pass.

I reserved this cute cabin for a weekend getaway to Mt. Rainier with my fiance and two dogs. The grounds were beautiful with fall color. The cabin I reserved on AirBnB was hosted by Packwood Lodge and was better in-person than described on the listing. It had more amenities than described, for example it did have towels, travel sized shampoo etc, and even a hair dryer. This cabin was fully furnished to include dishes and a dishwasher. It was super cute and comfortable! The customer service of the clerk at check in was stellar. I forgot my coat in the closet the day we checked out and the clerk called me and told me I had left it. When I told her I was not going to come back to get it, because I was already 2 hours away, she told me that I could purchase USPS postage and email it to the General Manager, Lisa, and they would mail it to me; no hurry they would hold if for 30 days. A couple days later, I emailed the Click-N-Ship postage to the Packwood Lodge Contact Us email address. Lisa replied and gave me an update when they planned to mail the coat and later emailed me the tracking number. I received my coat one week after my departure from Packwood Lodge. I would definitely stay here again!
