This rustic cabin surrounded by trees is located just one-half mile from Mount Rainier National Park, the Nisqually entrance in Ashford, Washington. Accessible year round with a hot tub under the trees, beautiful cedar slab railed deck with deck chairs for relaxing, picnic table, BBQ, custom cedar slab dart board, marshmallow roasting pit, horseshoe pits, and extra lawn chairs for enjoying the visiting deer and peaceful outdoors. This property backs up to 500+ acres of timbered National Forest that stretch up to a beautiful ridgeline that runs to Mt Wow.

Beautifully remodeled in 2006, this 1923 cabin still retains some of its rustic charm with age warbled glass pane windows, old stone fireplace with custom cedar slab mantle, and refinished hardwood floors. The gorgeous tiled bath includes a jetted tub and shower. This rustic cabin is heated with a wood stove insert with a gorgeous old stone fireplace and cedar slab mantle, plus in September 2021 we added a split pump so now have the choice of electric heat & air conditioning as well.

Comfortable sleeping for up to 8 persons in three bedrooms and the living room. Main floor master bedroom has a super comfortable queen, the living room has a sofa that folds down into a small bed. Upstairs the bear cub room has a super comfortable queen and a single bed with a memory foam topper for extra comfort. There is an additional separate loft with a full-size memory foam futon mattress. All linens are provided and are luxurious 500+ thread count sheets, with cozy blankets & comforters or quilts on every bed. There are a total of 2 queens, 1 full futon, 1 smaller sofa futon, and 1 single beds. Linens are replaced often so may not match photos.

The main living area is a shared living room, dining area, and kitchen area. The dining table has an extra leaf in the closet next to the bathroom, unless the last group added it to the table already. There are 8 chairs around the table. The living portion has a sofa that makes down into a smaller full-size bed. There is also a couple of chairs. The kitchen area has a full-size fridge & range, microwave, toaster, coffee pot, coffee grinder, waffle iron, crock pot, instapot, can opener & blender. There are also kitchen utensils, pots/pans, bake ware, plates, cups, glasses, bowls, silverware, etc.

If traveling in winter, Mt Rainier National Park requires all vehicles carry chains into the park. This mountain cabin sits at 2000' elevation in the Cascade Mountain range, so may or may not have snow accumulation at any time between November and April depending on storm systems. The highway is plowed often so access to the cabin driveway is kept clear. The driveway has an incline, so some years once in a while during heavy snow systems, guests may prefer to park at the bottom of the driveway if not in a 4-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle.

In the mountains, power outages are common and can occur for a few minutes to a few hours at any time of year. We try to keep this cabin stocked with flashlights and candles. Additionally, we have added battery-operated lightbulbs in the Owl's roost lamp, Bear cub room lamp, and the light fixture above the bench in the mud room. They only work in single light bulb fixtures. They have about an 8-hour charge if the power goes out. Also, there are a few push button battery operated mini-lights throughout the cabin as well.

Due to a severe allergy, dogs are not allowed in our cabin.

    The cabin is so cute and cozy! Beautifully updated by the owners. They provide a picture album that allows you to see their process from starting with worn and molded panels and ll through to new tile and woodwork. Wonderful woodlands all around and gorgeous views! We didn't want to leave. Absolutely recommended!

    We stayed 2 nights and it was a great base for going to Paradise and getting away from internet, social media and TV. We struggled with phone coverage so we’re unable to get hold of the owners to ask any questions, but this wasn’t essential as we realised there was no internet!The cabin was comfortable and quirky. There was a great choice of DVD’s and board games which was a nice way of having good family time together. We enjoyed the hot tub and S’mores in the fire pit - a ‘must do’ when we visit our grandchildren from the U.K. We’d be happy to stay here again

    Perfectly located and well-stocked cabin. Fluffy towels and comfortable beds. The hot tub was in good condition. Everything was clean and the owners were helpful. Not much Internet up in the mountains, but there are lots of movies and games to keep the family occupied.

    First time staying here and it was very nice. Clean also! Our 3 kids (10,8,6) came and loved it. They stayed up in the loft and was very entertained by all of the toys, stuffies, books and puzzles. There wasn’t any WiFi, which was actually nice because it had us play lots of board games and card games. Lots of family time. The kids LOVED the hot tub and hammock. Loved the seclusion and the open forest in the back yard. Beautiful. Very close to the park entrance.

    It was really neat to stay in a cabin that was 100 years old. We felt the old world charm with the old wooden windows and the slanted floors. My only recommendation is that they do something about the water pressure in the shower. That was incredibly disappointing. It was just a trickle of water.

    Pros: great directions. Found the cabin in the dark without getting lost. Great communication. Clean ( I did mistaken a small leak from the bathroom skylight as unclean…the cabin was super clean)The kitchen was fully supplied with with everything I needed to cook and bake with ;pots pan, plates, kitchen utensils)Really close to mount Rainer The games and movies are great! They also have a journal that you can’t write a little something about yourself inside it. That was fun to read. I really enjoyed the place. I would stay again. I think I would enjoy it much more in the summer. Cons-the cabinets are super high. Like ceiling high. They do provide a stool. The steps up to the bedrooms. Very steep. But they have a sturdy railing to hold onto

    Such a cute cabin. Excellent location to the park and town. It had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable. There was limited cell reception which I actually enjoyed and it was fun looking through the collection of dvd’s at night finding a movie after long days of hiking. I also enjoyed just sitting outside and the hot tub. I didn’t need to communicate with the owner for anything, but the check in process was super easy and there were instructions and options for things posted which were super helpful and appreciated. Most definitely will be staying here again soon.

    This was a beautiful, easily accessible cabin right outside the main entry gate for the national park. The kids enjoyed the movies, we all enjoyed the hot tub, and the property manager was easy to communicate with. The only thing I would warn people about is that if you are a light sleeper you may have trouble as in the primary bedroom you will hear every vehicle that goes by as you are above the main road. It didnt bother us too much and we slept great after all the hiking, and the bed was overall very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen and everything we needed for a family of 5 to cook meals. Had limited cell service with Verizon on the main deck- which was lovely to sit on and read.

    Our family of 6 absolutely loved our stay! We couldn't have asked for a better location as we were just a couple minutes from the Mt. Rainer entrance which made it very convenient to enter the park each day. We would definitely return for a future adventure!

    The Cornerstone Cabin was the perfect home base for us to visit Mt. Rainier. The location couldn’t be better. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the hot tub was a great bonus. We enjoyed the fact that there was no wi-fi and we were able to truly get away from it all.
