Cute & cozy cabin. Everything was clean and they priovide you with things that maybe you didn't think to pack. We enjoyed the hot tub and fireplace. The host is friendly and communicates fast. Highly recommend this place for a cozy cabin experience 👌
Thank you Dans place for a wonderful experience!
Super stay! House was cute and clean, very spacious and comfortable, in a great location near the park entrance and restaurants but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. We had all that we needed.
We enjoyed our stay here in this cozy cottage. It was clean, neat and had a washer/dryer. The yard was big with tall trees all around. It's only 5 miles from the entrance to Mt. Rainier National Park.
The perfect place to explore mount rainier, and come home to relax and unwind. Our kids loved playing out doors. Dans place is equipped with everything you could need. Would definitely recommend staying here!
We really enjoyed staying at Dan's Place and visiting Mt Rainier. The house was clean and comfortable and the owner was very kind helping us with any questions, The hot tub was very nice after a long day of hiking.
This was an excellent stay - great location, so close to Mt. Rainier, very nice hot tub, new grill, well equipped kitchen, easy access, all the essentials. Good internet connection. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
Lovely home just outside Mount Rainier National Park

This property has everything you need for a great getaway!
It is close to Mt. Rainier. Great hot tub to use after a long hike. The place has plenty of room and very clean.
Dan’s place was a perfect base for our Mt Rainier visit- within 10 min to the entrance. The home was clean and spacious, the bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with extras like spices, hot chocolate and pancake mix. It was nice to sit out by the fire after hiking all day. Having a washer and dryer was a plus as this was part of a multiple location road trip. Excellent communication with Madeline. We would definitely stay at Dan’s place again if we get back to Ashford. Thanks for a great stay!
Dan's Place was very clean, welcoming, and had everything we could want/need. The hot tub was fun to enjoy and we also enjoyed the variety of hot teas. The location feels fairly remote but is great for getting to the park!
Very clean. Very close to the entrance of the national park within 5 miles. Very well appointed Kitchen most everything you need. Comfortable beds, I’ve already recommended this place to friends. Would stay at Dan’s place again in a heartbeat!
Dan’s place was our favorite place on our 11 day trip! We loved sitting outside each morning and listening to nature! The beds were comfortable, everything was provided including snacks! It was a quick trip to Mt. Rainer each day. We hope to make it back someday! Thank you for hosting us!!
Since our college kids are all away, we like to get together for a girl's weekend at different places a couple of times a year. We chose this cabin for a cozy weekend to craft and connect with some peace and quiet. It was absolutely PERFECT! Great spot to relax and also a good location to explore Mt. Rainier. I highly recommended this cabin.
We stayed for a couple days with another couple. Perfect location to meet and hike Paradise area and visit Longmere area. Loved that they had a hot tub after a long day of hiking :-) Place was clean and comfy. The only issue we had was that we hadn't heard how to check in from the property manager but she replied quickly once I texted her number instead of texting within VRBO. Thanks Maddy for sharing Dan's favorite spot!
Great property with a lot of amenities. Our bed was comfy and the hot tub was wonderful. Only complaint was the floors weren’t cleaned with food crumbs everywhere. Luckily, there is a vacuum available. I recognize the cleaner was short on time, as she was there when we checked in. She was very nice, but a response from the owner would have been appreciated. Overall though, amazing property and we would stay again.

Dan’s place while visiting Rainier
We had supper cooked on the grill within 30 minutes of arrival along with fire for s’mores, playing cornhole and hot tub! These activities provided great entertainment throughout our stay.
We would have preferred improved communication as a message sent early morning the day of our arrival went unanswered.
The futon sheets were in a wad under the futon and we assumed they were dirty, went for a thin blue blanket to cover the futon which was stained. We washed the sheets for the second night.
Hanging bath towels were wet when we arrived and several drawers in kitchen had bugs in them so we needed to do extra washing.
Some extra work on our end made this a great stay.
Beautiful property, excellent location. Tbe house has everything you need for a great and comfortable stay. The property is meticulously maintained, and the location could not be better for access to Mt. Rainier National Park.
