Rainier National Park. 20 minutes to the grocery store in town that has cool restaurants and a great crystal shop. Local hikes are close, include gravel, paths, and waterfalls.
Our property IS off-grid and collects rain for water and solar for electricity. We do not have WiFi but do have cell service. Potable water is provided in small quantities at each site. Fires are subject to local burn bans and property provided materials. All areas are walk-in and include wagons to transport any gear.The Hillside Off-grid Cabin is a private 12'x12' studio room for two perched on a hillside with a private deck and huge views to the NW. Please be aware the cabin is walk in and about 300 feet down a reasonably level trail from the single parking spot provided next to the owners cabin. A wagon or wheel barrow are provided for moving gear. It takes about a minute to walk to from the parking area. The Hillside Off-grid Cabin is furnished with a queen bed, loveseat, coffee table with raising top, a small heater, and a gear/coat rack.

Instant coffees, hot chocolate, and some teas are provided along with some sweetener and creamer options. The Hillside Off-grid Cabin does not have WiFi or a TV but there is good cell service generally allowing visitors to create their own hotspot and get online if needed. While staying here you are allowed to explore and access the entire hillside property. Up the hill from the parking area are a few large communal level shady areas to enjoy the views of the lake, cool mountain breezes and general serenity of being in the treetops.
