Beautiful, magical stay! The forest is lovely and hosts are so kind. Having the camp kitchen was a game changer too!

Amazing Experience
If you are looking for a place to stay near Mt. Rainier look no further. John and his family were more than welcoming and made us feel right at home. The property is beautiful with many nooks and crannies to explore. Even though it was late in the season we were able to forage some blackberries from Johns garden. There is a peaceful, calming, inclusive energy about this land and we will be back. Words can't begin to describe how great of an experience it was. Thank you John for allowing us to experience your beautiful home.

Breathe in the beauty!
Absolutely beautiful! Lovely family greeted us. It was in a gorgeous forest with a creek running through. Very secluded. They included firewood 🪵 for us to use. There also was a compost toilet available too. Lots of paths to explore and 900 year old trees 🌲

This property is truly magic - lots of great sites, and even better hospitality! John met us when we arrived and walked us through the entire (incredible!) property. So many cool things to discover on the property! Highly recommend this site. We will be back!

This was a great spot near Mt. Rainer. The host was super hospitable and showed me around before I set up. Quiet and cozy.
