What a great place to stay! We had a rainy July week and it was absolutely cozy in the A-frame. When there was a break in the rain we re able to see some amazing views and hikes because this place is ...in close proximity to some of the coolest hikes around. Packwood is also the cutest mountain town. Can't wait to come back!

I'm an east coast Canadian that has fallen in love with the PNW. My passion is to travel the world, spend time in the great outdoors and explore our beautiful national parks.

Adventures Nearby
Here are some details about the adventures nearby. Refer to the map for their location.
Breakfast Of Champions
This hidden gem is only open from 8am–3pm and has the best breakfast around! Opt-in for the hot sauce made with habaneros and carrots – you won't regret it. Fuel up before a hike or get a burrito to go on your way out of town.
The Mountain Goat
This was the perfect spot for a coffee to get us ready for our day's adventure. Locally brewed coffee and freshly baked goodies gave us the energy we needed to take on the day. Small town feel, but big flavours and tastes.
Spending Time In A Mountain Town
Grab coffee like a local at the Mountain Goat; get maps for Mt Rainier National Park or Gifford Pinchot National Forests from guides at the visitor centre; enjoy vintage finds and one-of-a-kind gifts at the new Mercantile shop in town! You can spend hours in this little town despite it only being one street long.
Accessible Trail To See Ancient Basalt Formations
This ADA-accessible trail is a paved path that takes you through the history of geology in the area. I know – totally sounds nerdy, but the shape of the rock formations is pretty mysterious. Waterfalls line the mountainside, and if you go in the summer you are sure to see tons of wildflowers!
Packwood Brewery
Packwood Brewery was full of friendly faces, amazing locally brewed beers, and great snacks! Packwood Brewery has small details that would put a smile on just about everyone's face. It is family-friendly and offers games, a stunning fireplace, and a warm welcoming atmosphere.
Ski At White Pass Resort
Experience an epic day on the mountain skiing, snowboarding or tubing. This family-friendly local ski resort has something for everyone. Enjoy a day with friends with views of Mount Rainier all while skiing!
