I thought this house was a great value. It was spacious for our party of 8 adults and 2 kids (ages 7 and 9). There are two large separate gathering areas to hang out. There are three arcade games that kept the kids amused. There were two square tables that made it comfortable to play double pinochle. The house was clean and well-stocked. We used it as a home base to explore Mount Rainier and nearby lakes. Across the street from the house is a trail that leads to a river. It is small, but the kids enjoyed trying to skip stones which was difficult because the shore is raised above the river. We were there in July so it might be different at other times of the year. The house wasn’t fully updated for those who want the latest and greatest style,but it was clean and comfortable.

Close to the Pass for boarding!

We had an amazing stay at this property! We had planned a weekend of fun at the pass and the location was perfect! Clean home! Very prepared home as well! The property has items we didn’t even realize we could’ve needed(tinfoil) and had all the necessary cooking necessities!

Great Way to Unplug and Reconnect

The house was placed in the quiet but perfect little neighborhood. It was far away enough that our group was able to unplug from social media/ internet yet still close enough to town for us to socialize. The best part was having access to the river (even though the water was cold), it still allowed our group to go outside and explore. There was just enough beds and bedding to accomadate everyone but it was a little different than what was listed on the page, it was fine though since our group was able to figure it out. There was some minor bumps but it was able to be resolved pretty fast once communicated with the owner. Overall, I would come back and stay again!

Enough for one night

The location is not bad if we consider the river in front however it takes 45 minutes to get to the Gondolas and 1 hour and30 minutes to get to the trails for Mt. Rainer. The house didn't have furniture to do fire outside or bbq, we found a mouse that we frantically try to dispose and upstairs was poorly clean. The games upstairs were broken like foosball table and hockey.

Comfortable group stay for visiting Mt Rainier!

Our group had a great stay as we visited Mt Rainier for a long weekend. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment for a large group, and the laundry was a great plus. It was also great to have large common spaces to hang out as a group. Only thing is I wished there was a picture of the office with the fold up beds, as the room was quite small and I didn't really know what to expect.

Packwood

The house was very spacious. It was great having four bathrooms. Everything we needed was supplied. An abundance of towels and bedding. The game room was a lot of fun. Lots to do near by. Access to the river was just across the street and there was also access to a nearby club to swim and golf. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend. And beautiful Mt Rainier was very close by.

Rainier House

It was a nice house for the size group we had. It needed some updates but worked for us. It was a cozy house that was well supplied. We ran out of hot water everyday though after 2-4 showers, leaving others to have to take cold ones. Good location to the NP.

Poorly maintained property with a horrible host -

In a nutshell: The property is poorly maintained - things are broken and falling apart. There are a lot of bugs inside the house. My Experience: When we arrived the property was still being cleaned - had to wait till 4:30 before we could get in. The game room had games that were broken (foosball table was falling apart and the air hocky table is in shambles) - there were discarded wrappers around the games and furniture The grills were dirty and smelled really really bad. The first night foot board trim on one of the wall falls off - (you could tell it was put back several times and was really lose) The next day - was supposed to be really hot - we came back to a home around 3 pm to find it was at 86 degrees inside - and the A/C would not work. Host had us troubleshoot the unit by turning off the power to reset the heat pump - It did not work - kept on messaging the host for help - but nothing. Exhausted we finally gave up around 9:00 pm only to wake up in the middle of the night to find the house freezing at around 67. Had to turn the heat on to make it moderately liveable. Messaged the host in the morning again letting him know the AC was finally working - They insisted they will still have someone come over and check it out. What is worse ? The host insisted we pay $600 for "damages" to their property (the trim and the non-functional AC). I should have paid attention to other guests who had similar experiences... Truely a trip from hell...

Ski Weekend

This place is great! We had extended family and friends for an annual ski weekend and was able to accommodate all of us. So many beds! The whole place is very well organized and labels for where things are. Kitchen was well equipped and all loved the game room. Highly recommend if you have a large group!

Board n Ski

This was year 30 of our annual ski trip to Packwood/White Pass. The house was perfect for our group. Plenty of room for all to enjoy spending time together after a day on the slopes. Ryan has done a great job with updating the house and is very helpful and responds quickly to questions. Awesome time had by all.

This property, the home and yard, is not accurately described in the online offering data. The home had not been adequately cleaned, there were insects in the home despite our best efforts during our stay, mouse droppings in the kitchen and food containers chewed through for the final two days, bathrooms inadequately supplied, the outdoor area is entirely uninviting (dirty and unusable outdoor furniture), and we did not have exclusive use of the property...there was an occupied RV present in the yard and a 3-day "yard sale" was conducted on the property during our stay. This is our one and only unsatisfactory experience with VRBO home rentals near National Parks over the last 20 years.

Perfect vrbo for a large group

Plenty of beds and parking space. Description was accurate, and host was easy to communicate with. Not too far from some dinning options in Packwood. This was the perfect spot for my group of 8 adults, with a little room to spare.

Very comfortable house with plenty of space to spread out. Kitchen was well equipped and living room was very comfortable to gather in. Our only complaint was the plastic sheets on the beds. If I stay again, I would remove them.

Packwood Beauty

Perfect place. Use this as a base camp for MT Rainier hikes. The house is very clean. Multiple sitting areas and everybody felt like they had their own space. Multiple bathrooms. Perfect for large groups. Packwood is a very charming town to stay with multiple restaurants and other amenities that Ashford does not have. Would absolutely stay here again. Check in process was flawless. Hosts were great.

Nice place in a very small town

The house was very nice for our group. It had enough enough beds for everyone of us. It's located a bit outside the town but the location is very, just across the river. It's about 45 mins from Stevens Canyon gate. The house has a very nice backyard where we enjoyed our evenings. It also has a nice grill. The host is very responsive. The only issue we encountered was a mouse running amok in the house. Other than that, it's a very nice house.
