My wife and I stayed at the Paradise Guest House and had a lovely stay for four days in mid-July. Very peaceful and quiet. Nice, private room with relaxing hot tub to use in the cool evenings. Had all of the amenities that we needed. It was a convenient short drive into town or Mt. Rainier National Park’s Longmire entrance. Good view of the woods and we had deer early every morning visit.Nearby activities: National Park hiking.

My girlfriend and I stayed in the Meadow Cabin and it had everything you'd need for a romantic getaway, a base camp for hiking and/or everything in between. Clean, all the amenities you'd need, and a kind/helpful owner just down the road made the stay incredible! Would highly recommend staying here if you plan on hiking Mt. Rainer and the area around it.

We had the most incredible time at Almost Paradise! Everything was perfect, Carol was so kind and welcoming. We're moving out of state for a year but can not wait to come back.

My husband and I stayed for four days and nights in mid-July at the Meadow cabin. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. My husband is an avid hiker, camper and outdoorsman but since I am not, Almost Paradise was the perfect location for our getaway. We were just a few miles from Mt. Rainier National Park and surrounded by nature YET we had all the comforts and amenities I don't like to be without. The cabin was rustic and cozy but very clean and well-stocked, with everything from kitchenware to extra toothbrushes in the immaculate bathroom. The bed was very comfortable too. So, while my husband enjoyed hiking and exploring nearby I sat in the shade of the adjacent forest garden and worked on my needlepoint. To each his (or her) own! We cooked a few meals and went out for a few others but were able to do exactly as we pleased in a lovely and restful place. We gladly recommend Almost Paradise!

We stayed in the Sunrise Guesthouse from June 10-13 and we couldn't have asked for a better start to our Pacific Northwest vacation. We never felt like we were staying "in someone else's space". The place was welcoming, comfortable, relaxing and completely private. The amenities are amazing! Personal hot tub and sauna outside your door, the cleanest most even cooking grill we've ever seen in a vacation rental! Everything is so well maintained and cared for and it definitely shows. It has been a very long time since we've been able to unplug and go off the grid and we took advantage of it during our stay. We are already planning a time to return because we've never had a better time together! Thank you so much for your hospitality!

We had the pleasure of staying in the Rainier cabin over the 4th of July weekend. As we arrived to the office, Dugan the sweetest, yet playful German Shepard was there to greet us in all his splendor. We were then greeted by Carol and her family. After filling out the paperwork, we headed on over to the cabin. Carol gave us a little tour and showed us how to work the hot tub, and other features of the cabin. She then left us to get settled in, but did let us know that if we needed anything to let her and or her family know. The cabin was very cozy, clean and just right for what we needed. It was secluded enough and pretty private, we never really saw anyone except the proprietors on our way to the park. There was no stove but we knew that when we booked the cabin. There was a propane grill and we enjoyed grilling our food. There was a mini fridge was under the counter, but it was enough to hold our groceries. We also brought a cooler to store drinks and food. The kitchenette had a microwave, coffee maker and toaster. It was well stocked with utensils, salt and pepper, dish soap, a sponge, cups, and other things. We were pleasantly surprised. The bathroom had a dual shower head which we thought was nice. The bathroom had soaps, lotion and shampoo and well stocked with towels. There was also a hairdryer too! The bed was pretty comfortable. I know we slept very well after a day of exploring Mt Rainier and hiking. The park entrance is 5 miles away! So close! There was a TV, but no cable and we thought that was awesome, it is good to unplug from the world here and there. There are DVDs for you to borrow from the main office if you wish. There were a few board games, and puzzles as well. I brought a book to read or was relaxing with Dugan. The hot tub was very nice and a welcome site to soak our sore achy muscles and of course to unwind. Nothing like libations and a hot tub to relax in, under the summer sky. We had the best time here at Almost Paradise. We can't wait to go back.

Stayed in the Wildflower cabin last September and would definitely recommend anyone to stay here! Close to Mt Rainer with a stocked kitchen, gas fireplace, and wifi. It rained on one of the last days my husband and I were there and we were happy to take a day to relax in such a beautiful cabin!

OMG. Been here only 3 hours and we are completely in love with it. The owner is so thoughtful. You literally don't have to bring anything with you, except your clothes & food. She has pots, pans, serveware, (tin foil even) EVERYTHING. I wish we could stay here the week. We are staying in the Wildflower & have already discussed making this a yearly tradition. If I could give 6 stars I would. Completely exceeds our standards. It was a little hard to find our specific cabin, but we love how secluded it is.

My husband and I just spent the weekend there and did not want to leave. Carol was so friendly. Meeting Dugan, her German Shepard, was awesome. We were so sad to leave this morning. We stayed at the Sunrise Cabin with the sauna and Jacuzzi. Loved both and after hiking all day it was so nice to come back and relax in both. The bed was so comfy and the well stocked kitchen was amazing. We stopped for groceries on the way up. Comfy robes, slippers and fresh soft towels were so nice. The bed was so comfy and loved the handmade quilt. Carol had tons of movies to choose from, something for everyone. It was quiet, peaceful and much needed for us. The basket of breakfast goodies and snacks in the fridge were a great touch. Loved that we didn't have to worry about salt and pepper, cookware, plates and utensils. The kitchen was well equipped. The shower had a double shower head which is nice and relaxing. Theirs books to read, magazines and games to play. Hubby beat me at checkers. Loved having a gas grill and a fire ring complete w/ an outdoor picnic table. Carol really gives her guests privacy and you definitely do not have that feeling of being right up on someone. Cannot wait to go back. Hubby and I are going to try a different cabin next time. We were so sad to leave. Best romantic place to stay by far!!!!
