Guest Reviews
- Brittney (10/5): Great staff, clean and amazing location! - Everything about this place was wonderful. From the welcoming staff to awesome breakfast options and clean rooms. It’s in a great location if visiting Mount Rainier. Would definitely stay here again!
- David (10/5): - Nice place, cool history, and close to Mt. Ranier
- Travis (10/5): Great stay - Great room, excellent location, fun history of property
- Jessica (10/5): - I am not sure what I was expecting with a historic stay but I was pleasantly surprised and the little coffee shop that was attached was amazing. Very short drive into Mt Rainer
- Denise (6/5): - Room was clean , bed is a mattress on a piece of plywood, so pretty firm. No extra pillows in the room and what they had were very flat. No tv. If you want a place to sleep it was perfect, but if you want comfort and quiet this is not it. Young adult in the yurt were up until late partying and people above us sounded like a herd of elephants (mainly due to it being an older building). Good location, restaurants in the area.
- Lorri (8/5): - Room met our needs. Was a little confusing on where to check in. Limited dining options in the area. Great location for access to the national park.
- Chandrika (8/5): - We enjoyed our stay. It’s a charming place.
- Kevin (8/5): - I booked this room by accident. I was unaware that I had booked a room with no refrigerator, no microwave and no television! But I soon began to understand what the owners were striving for (I think). This is a beautiful area only 6 miles from Mount Rainier. I also noticed others enjoying the courtyard area by reading, relaxing under umbrellas, just enjoying the weather. This is a fine area to kind of disconnect and just enjoy the outdoors.
- Shawna (10/5): - Very unique property. Beautiful, quiet and relaxing. Can't wait to return.
- Nilima Islam (10/5): - Beautiful and cozy place, very nice staff. The cafe had nice ice creams and coffee.
- Jeannette (10/5): - We stayed here while day-hiking in Mt Rainier Park-very fun, close, and augmented the overall Mt Rainier experience.
- Kuri (6/5): - Room was fine for my needs. And bed was firm. It was clean. The main complaint was just the thin walls and hearing other people’s conversations and snoring at night.
- Susan (6/5): - Clean room. Helpful cheerful staff. There was noise from people upstairs from evening until about 2am. Facility could use some sprucing up, but as it has a rustic charm vibe, maybe it's fine as-is! I needed to drive a ways down the road for morning coffee, as the cafe at the facility wasn't open until later
- Barbara (8/5): - It was slightly difficult with a walker !
- Howard (8/5): - Love this place Great vibes Great food
- Paul (8/5): - Great room, great restaurant, lack of natural beauty
- Susan (10/5): - no tv in the room. Delightful
- Greg (8/5): Rustic - Rustic is an over-statement. Old. Everything pretty much worked. Lower cost option. You get what you pay for. Understand what you are getting. I would stay again.
- Richard (10/5): - Great place
- Carolyn (10/5): - Love this place. Everyone was helpful, the accommodations were clean and reasonable. It’s a great launching off spot for a visit to Rainier. I’ll come again!
- David (8/5): - The futon needs to be replaced
- Padideh (10/5): - This was our first time staying in this nice motel. It is conveniently located near the Mount Rainier National Park trails, and the motel is well-maintained for family stays.
- Rodrigo (4/5): - Probably I would
- Padideh (10/5): - This place is close to Mt Rainier National Park and favorite hiking trails. This motel offers everything that is needed for this trip.
- Thomas (10/5): - Convenient to national park entrance.
- James (8/5): - Good restaurant/Staff very helpful and close to Mt. Rainier
- Michael (10/5): - Convenient to Mount Rainier National Park. Clean and comfortable.
- joshua (10/5): Rustically Wonderful - Stayed here for the first time last year and booked it again for our recent trip. The location is great, it's rustic, but in a charming way. Love the little cafe/ice cream shop that has great morning pastries, but get there early...so you can get into the park early and avoid the lines!
- Thomas (10/5): Good choice - My son and I stayed here for one night. Overall it was good. My only wishes were more food options (son has celiac disease, I recognize that's not a common ask) and a way to keep the room a little cooler at night (had one small desk fan, no A/C). Location was great (6 miles from park entrance) and price was very reasonable compared to many of the other options near Nisqually entrance.
- Janet (8/5): - We loved talking with others around the fire pit after a challenging, enjoyable climb! Enjoyed the food, location.
- Mallory (10/5): - The room was great. The water pressure and nice towels after a long day of hiking was way nicer than I had expected. The room was super clean and the property was very cute. Walkable to the restaurant next door as well as a equipment rental facility
- Aisha (8/5): - We had a great stay at the hotel the room was nice and clean the bathroom was a bit smaller with only one small sink we git two rooms which was attached with one bathroom the room didn’t had any ac or any fans but the night was ok enough was to sleep in summer there was no staff after 8 so even if we wanted we couldn’t get anyone. When we arrive we were not told that the bbq dining area will be close at 8 so be wary about that it was hard for us to find dinner afterwards because everything close at 8 the surrounding was beautiful we started there cause we went to National park first thing in the morning and that workes out great for us.
- Elizabeth (10/5): - This was a charming place with a cute cafe and restaurant right on site. Very close to Mt. Rainier.
- Nhi (10/5): - Love this place to sleep for hiking to Mt Rainer. This is a good place for family or a group of 5 like us.
- Deana (8/5): - The room that sleeps 5 people (room 21) is upstairs and there are no ramps/elevators to get to the second floor-difficult for guests who can’t climb up comfortably. Cafe food options are a bit expensive ($8 for a breakfast sandwich that isn’t even made in-house). Otherwise a nice lodge in a beautiful area.
- yao (2/5): - The room was not cleaned
- Susan (10/5): - We stayed here one night as a family of four (2 college-aged kids plus parents) on our way to Mt. Rainier. It was charming and cozy. It had everything we needed - comfortable beds, a fridge, a hot shower, and even a library of paperbacks to peruse. Our room had plenty of space. Check in/out was a breeze, and the girls at the front desk were super friendly and helpful. If you want luxury, this might not be your stop, but if you like a comfortable stay that's clean and warm with some history and charm, I'd definitely recommend staying here.
- Kari (10/5): - Lovely simple jumping off point, excellent lobby/cafe
- Duane (8/5): - The price is high for very basic accommodations. But that is the cost to stay near Mt. Rainier National Park in a cabin community with a great vibe.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to stay close to My Rainier. They have decent sized rooms and have all the amenities you would need to make your stay comfortable.
- Hao (8/5): - You got what you need.
- Jason (10/5): - Love the bunkhhouse
- Margaret B (10/5): Great little place. - We had a little cabin, very clean, very quiet. The kitchen was set up with basic equipment, fridge and good water pressure. We were a one night stay, but could’ve easily stayed a week.
- Jack (10/5): - A unique experience for sure. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the full property and the cafe. Was only there for one night, and our stay was good. Really neat story on how this place came to be. Location is top notch for a visit to Mt. Rainier, 5 miles from entrance. Great little coffee stand 1 minute down the road that opens @ 5:30, that’s my kind of place for an early riser.
- Sarintip (4/5): - Bed's leg with roller wheel it's move easy not stedy & no headboard. Noisy!
- Avidan (10/5): - The location
- Connie (10/5): - The room is very spacious and clean. Also has plenty of storage and shelf. The only downside is that we stayed at the second floor, you may bump you head against the A ceiling on the side of the room.
- Doris (8/5): - Imbedded within nature
- Bryan (10/5): - Excellent stay!
- Abby (10/5): - We loved our stay here!! The staff was excellent and the room was comfy. It had a fun coffee/ice cream shop and restaurant that we went to on property. Great outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful weather. We would definitely stay here again!
- Ashley (10/5): - Really nice coffee shop at check in with smoothies and other treats. Beds were nice and comfortable. Close proximity to Steven's Canyon Entrance and other restaurants.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Rustic - Rustic. But fun place to stay.
- Haolin (10/5): - nice and clean, good play ground, food near by
- Ramiro (6/5): - We like to stay in historic motels. We Loved the spacious wooden cabin assigned to us. There’s a nice to go breakfast at the office plus great hamburgers and live music next door. However, the shower head in our cabin was faulty and no light over the mirror to shave nicely. The beds were comfortable. The cabin had a fantastic exterior porch, a nice refrigerator & microwave. Very close to Mount Rainer NP.
- Karan (10/5): - Beautiful cozy place with excellent staff and cafe
- DAVID (10/5): - Very nice, friendly place to stay while hiking the trails at Mt. Rainier National Park.
- Roc (6/5): - Ok.
- Hannah (10/5): - We loved our stay at Whittakers! The location was perfect for exploring Mt Rainier. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful and the onsite cafe was convenient and charming. Definitely recommend for a simple and lovely stay!
- Sherry (10/5): Nice Place to Stay - Very cute and conveniently located. We didn’t try the restaurant but there was one on location, loved all the seating areas outside, and the coffee and energy drinks from the shop were so good. Only complaint is the walls are very very thin. Heard the whole conversations from the room behind us and people wheeling out suitcases early in the morning from the wood sidewalk next to the doors. Otherwise loved this place and definitely recommend and hope to stay again sometime .
- Alexei (10/5): - Short distance to Mount Rainier National Park
- Zhiheng (10/5): - Close to Mount Rainier. Large bedroom
- john david (8/5): - I stayed here years ago when my son and I took the mountaineering course up on Rainier. If you’re looking for luxury, look elsewhere. If you’re looking for a fun experience that’ll remind you of that summer camp you went to as a child, this is the place. And come on, Whittaker, Everest, history and of course this is the launch pad for so many Mt Rainier climbs. I hope to be back.
- Karla Parker (8/5): - Great value for a family of 5. But the cafe really lacked in prepared breakfast options everything was microwaved! Would have like home cooked breakfast options. Grounds were very nice and the room spacious.
- Rachael (10/5): - it was so simple and sweet
- Lindsay (4/5): - We were told, on arrival, that there was no water. This was not the fault of the motel. It was a problem with the local service. However, the motel only provided one small bottle of water per customer, and advised us to not use the tap water at all except for showers (and even then, there was risk involved). They warned us of this through expedia an hour before our check-in time, but we were on the road and unable to access email. But the motel refused to supply us with any more water. Why did they not go to the supermarket themselves to provide their guests with more bottled water? This was very poor service given the considerable fee paid for one night in what was a quite shabby room. The problem with the water meant that none of the other services (bar, restaurant etc) were open. But there was no concession at all from the motel.
- HEATHER (10/5): - Unique place to stay close to Mount Rainier. The property is beautiful and the staff is super friendly
- Eileen (8/5): - It is historical and a bit rustic - no TVs but we don’t mind that at all. Staff was friendly and it is in a great location
- Maria (10/5): - Nice quiate and clean cute cottage, very confortable beds. 💯 Ty!
- Deborah A (6/5): - Staff were great and helpful, great location, property worn but clean. Bathroom had issues.
- Gabriel (8/5): - It’s a cute spot, and it allows to explore the area. I would say it has thin walls.
- Michelle (10/5): - Had a great stay, thank you
- Gul (2/5): - This place was way over charged. And the room was dirty and sheets weren’t changed. Heater was not working and I was too cold at night that i couldn’t sleep. There was no tv and WiFi was so slow. At Night we hear so many random noises and knocks around that we get terrified because I was there with just my girls. I would not recommend this place.
- madison (10/5): - Loved it
- Lydia (10/5): - Felt safe and quiet
- Judith (4/5): - bed too high- couldn't get in without jumping. 2 uncomfortable chairs with no arms. very bare, poor lighting. Would not reccomend for older adult.
- Cheyanne (10/5): Exactly what I needed - Clean, cozy, spacious. Perfect for after a day hiking!
- Pravin (10/5): Peaceful, beautiful resort near Mt. Rainier - A quiet place nestled in the woods, perfect in terms of accessing Mount Rainier.
- Doug (6/5): - Is a bunkhouse that owner didn't invest upgrades into, boring room.
- Wayne (10/5): - The room was spacious and the two heaters really kept it warm.
- Allen (8/5): - The parking situation is a little tight, but understandable. The quietness is perfect.
- Business (10/5): - All in all a very decent place to stay.
- Patricia (8/5): - Great location and close to a really cool restaurant. The facilities are very basic and the bathroom needs a deep clean but the bath towels and sheets were clean. Safe and very quiet place! There is a very good shp for brreakfast,
- Beverly (10/5): - Unique, historic bunkhouse. I loved the atmosphere—the old floors marked by the boots of the lumberjacks who stayed there 100 years ago. The twin beds were cozy with really nice bedding. I liked sitting on the wrap around porch. Great flowers in boxes on the porch. I watched hummingbirds zip around the flowers. Really nice staff. Will stay here again. Not far from the entrance to Mt Rainier.
- Tracy (8/5): - Convenient to MRNP, good breakfast.
- Patricia (10/5): - What a gem! The staff was amazing and attentive. The room couldn't have been any cleaner. The area was amazing, so much to see and do in nature. We spent very little time in the room. When we did it was on the deck, enjoying the view. The Salmon House Restaurant, across the street, was a true gem as well. The seafood and cocktails were phenomenal. We ate there EVERY night. Cons... the bed was comfortable but FIRM and there was not a microwave or an icebox in the rooms. The store doesn’t open until 9am so bring your own breakfast... or eat breakfast down the road at the other Lodge. Sit out on their Veranda and check out their view.
- Earl (8/5): - Nice place on the outside. The room was fine. No TV, clean and great location.
- Tanyaop (6/5): Great location but untended room - Rustic and dated. Great location for going to Mount Rainier. The room may not have been used recently because there was an active spider that had dropped dead carcasses of flies on the bed’s headboard. I’m not afraid of spiders and I appreciated the flies being eliminated but it would have been nice if the carcasses had been wiped off before we came. The toilet leaked and puddled along a baseboard. The coffee was delicious though and the cafe charming.
- Hongfei (6/5): - WiFi in my room did not work, no internet. Room has limited furniture.
- Kenneth (8/5): - It was pleasant and quiet. Parking was a little confusing at 1st. Coffee was excellent! An extra chair or small table would have been nice. Thanks!
- Winnie (6/5): - Room 22 on the second floor was like a room in the attic. We bumped our heads many times as the sides are slanted. The lights and ventilation fan were controlled by the same switch and the sound was annoyingly loud.
- Vernon (10/5): - We liked being so close to Mt Rainier. Our room was clean and comfortable and the staff was friendly.
- Sara (10/5): - This motel was so cute and safe. I was a little nervous that our room (3 beds) was the only room with French doors (with windows) not typically the door you want facing outwards. But everyone at the more were wonderful and made our stay enjoyable.
- Jane B. (10/5): - Very nice hospitality. Very clean for such a busy mountain climbing clientele.
- Kaiwha (6/5): - Very basic room
- Eric (10/5): - Quaint place. Loved the sitting areas outside and the flowers. The ladies checking us in were very helpful. Overall a great experience.
- Jonathan (10/5): - This place is small. If you stay for a long period of time. Be sure to buy food and supplies before entering Ashford. This is a literal bunkhouse. I brought a cooler for drinks and food. There cafe has some food and there is a diner near by. Dated facility because its a bunkhouse but this is what i was looking for and I only say this because some other people might expect more. Overall I enjoyed this place and would have stayed longer if my plans didn't change.
- KenCarol (6/5): Quick stay, basic accommodations. - Basic accommodations at a decent rate. Queen bed was comfortable but firm. Quiet, serene setting. Fans provided in the room. I arrived late in the evening and was gone by 10am the following morning for a day hike at Mt Rainier. Unfortunately the regulator in the shower wasn’t working so there was just freezing cold water. When I mentioned it to the front desk at check out they said they’d have maintenance look at it, but no discount was offered.
- Kmdruns (2/5): Give me strength! Terrible, Terrible experience. - Terrible terrible experience. The hotel is outdated. The boards on the porch are uneven and unsafe. The beds are hard. The curtains are a bit ratty. In addition, there is no air condition but they provide fans. We were there in August and it was hot and trust me fans did not cut it. The hotel is way overpriced for what you get. I believe they can charge that amount only because of their location. That is all they have going for them. In addition, the staff did not seem to be very knowledgeable but were nice. This was our first trip to Washington, Oregon and we were so excited. This was our first day of our trip and first stay at this hotel. We will never stay here again and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. It is not cute or quaint. It’s just old and outdated. It could be super cute, but they have some work to do. Also if they do not have air or tv and spotty wifi- they should let people know that. I think those features are just a given. 👎😞. Big disappointment.
- Peter (10/5): - For climbers its perfect as a base camp. Its just a little tired and could use an updatimg. The staff are excellent. I would not hesitate to book again.
- sara (10/5): - Clean & comfortable.
