Getaway with Dad

My dad room my little brother and I to Elk Cabin for an overnight. We could t go camping be a use of the weather but this was the perfect alternative. We got to hike by the river, hang out in the hot tub, make snores by the fire and watch some Star Wars. It was perfect! And we saw a ton of elk! I hope dad takes us back soon.

Great host

Gonna keep this quick, as I was on my way to the property and later than regular check in time. I was starving and was thinking gonna have to start a chimney fire to get cabin nice and cozy before we start cooking. Figured probably 6pm after we settled in, to my surprise there was a fire started already, cabin was ready. This was awesome, really made our night awesome.

We had a great weekend in this cute cabin! The hot tub was a plus, as well as the cleanliness and extra amenities like coffee, spices, etc. We liked that it was close to the grocery store as well as the brewery. We saw elk down the street on 2 separate occasions. Nice little neighborhood too!

Wonderful stay at Elk Cabin

My family stayed at the Elk Cabin for a ski weekend at White Pass. We absolutely loved the cozy cabin. Everything from the hot tub with a beautiful view of Mt. Rainier, to the warm fireplace after a cold day on the slopes! We loved our stay and can't wait to come back for our next adventure.

We only had one night but it was perfect for what we needed! Mt Rainier peeking out if you’re lucky to catch it while in the hot tub. Coffee! Thank you for the offerings! . Walked down to the river from public entrance in the morning and it was beautiful. Great location, great communication!
