Family September Trip
The Miller Cabin was the perfect place for our stay. We stayed a week. This was a family trip coming from two different states. We were able to drive to many areas of Mt Ranier and surrounding areas to hike and spend time admiring the mountains, rain forest, beautiful old growth giant trees and rivers. We had a fabulous time. The cabin filled all our down time needs. The beds were very comfortable which is very high on our need list. The appliances were appreciated for their cleanliness and sizes. Thank you Shane Miller for renting to us. Maybe we can come back some day.

Great location, space and communication with owner
Great location, easy check-in and good space in the house - you don’t feel like you’re on top of each other. Communication with Shane the owner was excellent, and he granted us a late checkout which we really appreciated. WiFi and cell service are spotty in the neighborhood so don’t rely on it for work - go up to the mountain and use the lodge’s wifi if you need to work :)

Our stay
Overall the cabin was well maintained and comfortable. We could never get the gas fireplace to work even with the owner trying to instruct us over the phone which was unfortunate. The neighborhood elk roaming around were entertaining until they knocked over garbage cans and started digging through the neighbors’ and our trash.

Cabin in the Woods
This is a great choice for your family trip to the Greenwater area. We used the cabin as home base for our annual family skiing trip. We got snow while we were there, and were visited by the local elk contingent. Be sure to strap down the garbage can lids! We all had a great time. I recommend the Miller Cabin highly!

Could be fabulous if property gets some TLC
The property is in a great location with easy access to Crystal Mountain, Rainier, and not too far from Enumclaw and is in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It is “surface clean” with clean countertops and floors. It needs a more thorough cleaning as drawers and cabinets are littered with crumbs and spills in kitchen and baths. The departure instructions include an expectation that the vacationer “start AND FINISH at least one load” of laundry, which is unusual and likely the cause of bath towels smelling sour. A kitchen towel was nicely folded on the dishwasher handle, but was dirty/soiled from a prior stay. There was coffee creamer in the refrigerator that had expired months before. Like most properties in the area, this one did not have air conditioning, so the master suite upstairs was pretty hot. We bought a box fan that really helped it feel more comfortable and left it in the closet for future vacationers to use. Make sure you take a photo of the door code from the check in instructions on the app prior to driving to the property. There is very limited cell service at or near the property and I couldn’t get it to open. My signal was just strong enough to make a call, and I called Shane to ask for help, but got voicemail. He never returned my call in spite of my request to do so. I also emailed him twice concerning the property, but never got a response. I hope he wasn’t sick or had something terrible going that prevented him from being responsive.

Wonderful location and neighborhood
This worked well for our family’s stay and nice proximity to many hikes in the rainier area. The community itself was perfect too- plenty of trails, roads for running, a playground, and beach to explore off the white river. Even the elks in the neighborhood were a fun novelty. I would highly recommend - perfect for a family with younger kids.

Great location but house missing a few amenities
We really enjoyed our stay; easy access to go skiing and we loved the location. For the price and fees, I would have expected better amenities - the pots and pans were very old, outside lighting (was very hard to see to see at night), the driveway was solid ice after the recent snow fall and then melting and no hot tub. There was also dog poop on the deck by the chairs in the front of the house, likely left by a previous renter. On a positive note, the house was impeccably clean and instructions for check-in / check-out was easy. Shane was very responsive for any questions I had.

Room to improve
Really great location, and the bedrooms, bathrooms, are great. The kitchen is laid out well, but everything was a bit worn down. Towels, blankets, etc have signs of a lot of wear. Asked to do 1 load of laundry as part of checkout, with is fine, but there was no laundry soap provided. Dish network didn't work either. On checkin, it was clear housekeeping hadn't been there after the last guest. Was able to reach homeowner through VRBO customer service (owner's phone # provided on reservation was incorrect, so had to call VRBO), and he was great in quickly getting housekeeping scheduled to clean the home. Just lots of "cons" that offset the "pros" of location.

Wifi speed was perfect for cell phone use (no issues), although it isn't really designed for streaming. There is a cut out in the wall above the door to enter into the master bedroom (so noise travels). There is a nice collection of games to play. Super easy access to Crystal (about a 30 min drive, roads were all clear of snow). Very cozy and comfortable! Would stay again.

Great small house
Great location, good and cozy house. The master bedroom was great. Most of the appliances are new. Decoration is nice. However, the kitchen was poorly stocked-we constantly ran out of cups and dishes. Had to buy few bowls, since the house had just one. Lacked large oven baking pans, thermometer, aluminum foil. The dishwasher is not working well, which explains why we found few unwashed mugs in the cupboard. In COVID time they should not ask us to reuse the previous tenants dish sponge. Had to go to the store for that too. A better stocked kitchen would have made a good experience a great one.

Gem in the woods, close to skiing
New Years at the Greenwater Chalet was fabulous. The cabin was roomy enough for 7 adults to have space but celebrate family time together at night after skiing at nearby Crystal Mountain (about 20 minute drive). Parking in front was plenty for 3 cars (watch the marker skis when backing out the driveway.--our backup beeper didn't notice them) We loved the open living space with windows to the neighborhood and saw several visits from the local elk herd. Kitchen was especially well equipped for our evening dinner preparations. Generous size refrigerator held all our supplies. The rooms were all comfortable and quiet with good air circulation keeping us not too hot, not too cold. In cabin washer/dryer was a nice perk. We appreciated the availability of washer soap as well as dish soap and dishwasher soap. Separating recyclables from trash will save you a lot of grief with trash capacity. There are two large recycle bins but only one small trash one. And as other guests noted, keep them secured from the elk. We had one knocked over but nothing spilled out. Give a little time for the water heater to catch up if several people want to shower after skiing for the day but that was the only even remotest glitch we encountered. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

Shane and his cabin are wonderful.
We loved everything about this property! I would absolutely recommend it to others. We had no connection to the owners and found the place randomly online. The layout was great, and the property was super clean upon arrival. Shane is a terrific host and answers questions quickly. Kitchen was easy to maneuver since nearby food is not an option. This home is very convenient to visiting Mt. Rainier. I would imagine this place would be equally cozy in the winter. Don’t expect much internet service but that is not specific to Shane’s cabin but the area in general. I have yet to find a national park area with any strong internet capabilities . Reality is that is a good thing not a bad thing when you are in the mountains but visitors should be aware.

Perfect Spot
We celebrated New Years Eve here and had a great time. There was plenty of room for our family for meals and playing games. The elk were amazing - at one point the entire herd was right outside the front door. They did try to get into the garbage, but we were able to shoo them away. Speaking of garbage, the can was 1/2 full when we arrived, but we were able to get ours in. Not sure if it was prior guests or not, but there was garbage in the recycle bins that the elk did get into, but we cleaned up their mess and got it into the proper containers. This is no big deal, but we couldn't figure out how to get the DVD/VCR to work. We had other devices for the kids to watch movies, but it would have been nice to use the TV. We will definitely think about this place again if we need a larger cabin for family use. Sincerely, The Nichols and Gram family
