Welcome to Echo Valley!

The cabin has a fully equipped kitchen that has everything you will need to whip up delicious meals, although we recommend stocking up on groceries before you arrive in Ashford. There is a nearby general store that offers the essentials as well as beer and wine.

We keep the checkout process simple. Just take out the garbage, rinse the dishes before placing in the dishwasher, and put any used towels in the hamper or floor.

This is a studio cabin. There is a step up into bedroom area but there is no door that separates the bedroom from the living area.

Our cabin sits up on a private road on a steep hill. The roads are very dark, so please keep that in mind when you arrive.

    This was our first ever VRBO rental experience and let’s just say, I hope every other rental experience in our future is just as pleasant! With great communication from our hosts to excellent hospitality and such a clean atmosphere. Truly amazing! Can’t wait to come again!

    This is an amazing little place! Everything is thought out and cozy. Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bed, amazing hot tub, washer dryer, peaceful and private. The snack basket was a very welcome treat when you make it in late. Would love to stay here again and for a longer time!

    This is a pristine home in a beautiful wooded location adjacent to Mt Rainier National Park. The cabin was comfortable and homey with all the amenities needed and then some additional thoughtful touches. We enjoyed the hot tub on the deck surrounded by lush forest…perfect after a long day. Great find! Only wish we could’ve stayed longer!

    Dovetail Den is the quintessential serene cabin in the woods with lovely interior and everything you need. Modern shower, comfy bed and living area furniture. Only 6 miles to Nisqually entrance to Mt Rainier National Park. We did hikes every day to waterfalls and spectacular wildflowers near Paradise. The kitchen is a cook’s delight. We also highly recommend Copper Creek Inn and Wildberry restaurants. Thank you Patrick and Anita for a most memorable stay.

    This was an absolutely perfect rental property experience. We’ve stayed in dozens, not just on VRBO but through Airbnb and private rental companies, and while we’ve made lots of great memories, we’ve never before had such a completely perfect stay from start to finish. There were so many amazing small details like the spa towels for the hot tub, the charging station for all your devices, the hiking poles for your use. The cabin was beautifully designed and so cozy, with the electric fireplace and bench seating at the windows. The bed was super comfy and so was the couch. Plenty of blankets and pillows. Shower pressure was perfect. Laundry room thoughtfully included pods, although we only used the dryer, that’s a nice touch. The water dispenser was GREAT! Thank you for that! We super appreciated the snack basket as we had several travel difficulties that day and were too late to grab dinner, everything had closed. Thank you so much for an amazing experience and wonderful first night of our trip. I wish we could go back.

    Wow! I can’t believe how beautiful this space was. Everything was BRAND new and we wanted for nothing. After hiking, we were able to easily cook dinner because this space is incredibly well stocked. It was in a great location right near town and just outside the national park gates!Don’t miss this place!

    Spotlessly clean! Super comfortable! Great proximity to Mt. Rainier National Park! After a week on the road it was great to be able to do laundry and relax before the second half of our trip. Would absolutely stay here again!
