Great cabin right by the river, with beautiful views, nicely decorated inside with substantial home improvements made, to make our stay comfortable and very enjoyable. The carport is also nice to have during periods of wet weather. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Two bathrooms are nice to have for a family or stay with friends.

Mom's Weekend Away

The house was perfect! The listing showed the house well. It was super clean. All the sheets and towels were super soft. The couches were perfect for snuggling in a blanket to read. The neighborhood was quiet and the view of the river was amazing!

Great place to stay. Clean. Comfy. Enough beds. Enough places to sit. Extra towels & blankets to be cozy. The deck & hot tub were fabulous. Love all the hooks to hang stuff to dry. Also loved that we didn't have to take the sheets off when we left. I hate when places charge a cleaning fee and have you do some of the work. Thank you.

Slice of heaven

This beautiful home is inviting tastefully decorated and very clean and comfy. It’s quiet you can hear the river which I loved. So many attention to details of what you may need while there. Even treats, and breakfast. It’s a mobile home however, you would never know it from the inside. Although my stay was in late summer I think the winter would be just as wonderful. Wood stove a good book, and there is a skiing nearby. Packwood is charming and loved seeing the Elk. We stayed while visiting Mt. Rainer. This host thought of just about every detail and possible needs of the guests.
