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.

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.

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.

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.

It’s a cute spot, and it allows to explore the area. I would say it has thin walls.
