The impeccable details and opulent furnishings of these cabins make you feel special and thoughtfully taken care of as if you are visiting your favorite aunt's home. The log-hewn furniture feels solid, the lampshades were whimsical, even the coasters and decorations were on theme: bears in the woods. The kitchen gadgets were high end. The teas and coffees provided were not cheap standard shelf fillers, rather thoughtfully prepared and chosen. The cooking oil provided was obviously selected for quality and health. Add to this excellent electrical work in the cabins, cooling fans, lots of hooks for wet towels from the hot tub, support for WiFi, and you feel as if all possible eventualities --including power outages-- have been given forethought and workarounds clearly communicated to guests. It's the ethic of care for the wellbeing of the guest that had me impressed right off the bat, and this made the exquisite nature setting on the creekside feel seamless and restful. When someone has figured out all the details, you can go ahead and just relax at the cabin. My parents visiting from abroad had a great time here. All we did was just relax and enjoy the cabin. The deer and the blue jays were a special treat. This place is doing it right. You can never go wrong with staying here. However, it is a little expensive and there are no such things as cancellations. So it does seem hard to get a booking because it is so popular here. And I myself would worry about how to book when no cancellations are allowable. The cabins are slightly compact also, can be a bit tight if you pack in the full allowable guest load. Am I thinking of going back? Heck yeah read more

Betsy's Cabins at Mount Rainier - Vacation Rentals Near Me

My husband and I stayed at the cabin Camp Nelson last weekend for our wedding anniversary. What an exceptional experience! The cabin was fully equipped with everything you could need, even the most adorable popcorn machine. The cabin was clean, new, high quality, and the perfect place for some much needed rest and relaxation. The hot tub right outside was so beautiful with twinkle lights around it. We can't wait to come back with our kids. Thank you for a wonderful time! read more

We had a wonderful, peacefully, romantic getaway at Betsys cabins. The cabin was so clean and tastefully decorated, and we'll stocked with so many nice supplies. The hot tub was relaxing with snow surrounding, and deer passing by... We were close enough to a few restaurants which we went to and we cooked some fabulous meals at our home away from home. The time was enchanting and peaceful....definitely recommend. read more

BOTTOM LINE UPFRONT: We do not recommend for Disabled, Seniors or Veterans, nor will be staying again at Betsy's Cabins at Mount Rainier. My wife and I are both Seniors in our '70's and I'm 100% Disabled Veteran and have 13 pins and a titanium plate that holds my foot together. My wife booked Betsy's Cabin online to surprise me for a romantic 3 days during the week. When she surprised me and told me, I thought that this would be a great getaway and perhaps it would lead me to recommend Betsey's Cabin for the Veterans across the State of Washington and in the United States that I work with that have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - PTSD for them and their families to help heal but I would not recommend Betsy's Cabin because it could add to the stress that they are already dealing with. Here is the reason why we would not recommend Betsy's Cabin for Seniors, Disabled or Veterans. Booking through their website is not very user friendly. They take your information to include your payment information and then they ask you to download an app called "Staylio" where they communicate with you through the app. They require the entire payment upfront and sweep your credit card or debit card immediately. Somewhere in the" fine print" that you understand the terms and conditions, states that there are no refunds, no matter the reason. We drove 2 hours to get to Betsy's Cabins arriving at 2:00pm in the afternoon. We used google maps to get us to the location but because cell service is spotty in that area, we went to the app to contact their customer service representative. Upon calling the number it immediately went to voicemail with a message at said, "Due to high volume of solicitations, we screen our calls and will get back to you as soon as we can." We asked ourselves what would happen if we needed to get in touch with them because of an emergency at their property. We left a polite message and told them that we could not find the property and could they help us. A short time later a customer service representative asked us the pull to the side of the road and explain to her where we thought we were. My wife and I were having a conversation with her, when she chided us as though we where children and telling us in a stern voice, "Only one of you speak." We looked at each other and thought that was not what we have experienced from other customer service representatives that we have delt with in the past. She told us where to go and told us could not check into the property till after 4:00pm so we found a place 12 miles back down the road to have a late lunch. By this time, we were tired and just wanted to settle down for the evening and arrived at the property after 4:00pm and checked with the cyber lock code that was on the app. Nor were we expecting wet firewood placed in the firepit. Impossible to light. We were not prepared for the layout of the small cabin with the restroom downstair and a loft upstairs. The small loft had a narrow staircase up to the loft, a computer screen tv (roku with no directions on how to use) and a small bed. I am 6'1 my legs were off the bed all night so would not recommend the cabin. At night, when I got up to use the restroom down the narrow stairs, I almost fell. When got up in the morning we decided to check out before their mandatory checkout time because we weren't feeling up to par and because we thought that the stairs were a hazard to both of us seniors. The cabin did not meet our expectations. Nor did the very rude representation of Betsey's Cabin. We called and again left a message and later received a return call. Again, we were met with a contentious customer service representation. We explained the reasons that we were checking out and the representative was augmentative. She said we were not getting a refund for the two extra days that we had booked. We expected that she would offer us other accommodation within their cabins that was Americans with Disabilities (ADA) compliant but she did not so we explained that she could place the cabin back online and rent the remaining days. She indicated that she doubted she would be able to rent it. No apology, no credit, no refund and no solution. We would definitely not recommend Betsy's Cabin. We understand that the owner will probably try to refute our claims but our reputation and our integrity are above reproach read more

It was our first visit at Betsy's Serenity cabin and wont be our last! Super cosy and wood provided in the winter, for the main heat is a wood stove which we loved building. There's electric heat so when we arrived it was only 60 degrees while the outside temp was in the 20's. Enjoyed the hot tub after snowshoeing at Longmire. Beautiful view of the woods perfect for sitting and knitting for a bit of relaxation!.Kitchen is well equipped including a electric kettle and a great assortment of teas. The bed in the loft is very comfortable and the down comforter kept us warm during the very chilly nights. This cabin is super comfy perfect for two. We chose to dress downstair instead of carrying bags up the loft stairs much easier.Serenity is special to our family being in AA for years so Looking forward to future visits to the Serenity cabin! Thanks Betsy The Cyn S. read more

Betsy's Cabins at Mount Rainier - Vacation Rentals Near Me

Another fabulous stay at Betsy's! We use Betsy's as home base during our trips to Mt. Rainier National Park. We have stayed at Hiker's Hidaway numerous times and love that cabin. This time, we stayed at Laughing Water. This is a cabin worth staying at too! This cabin is nestled amongst beautiful pine tress, along with a small creek in the backyard. The cabin is situated far back from the road, and is quiet all day and all night. Upon arrival, there was a big storm occurring. The cabin did not have any power when we arrived. The cabin does have a gas fireplace which keeps the cabin warm and toasty. In the living room, there is a battery back up that will charge cell phones and laptops if you work remotely. No cell service in this area, the cabin does have wifi if you need to keep you in touch with the real world. (Please read the welcome binder, regarding power outages, pro rated refunds) We are a family of three, this cabin is plenty spacious for us. There is a bedroom downstairs with a wall heater, and an loft with a queen bed. The loft has a T.V/DVD player and kids movies. This space is more for young kids or teens. Full kitchen with all the dishes, pots, pans, cups, utensils you'll need. Gas stove, coffee machine, microwave, it's like home away from home. Full bath, shower has great water pressure. This cabin has a tankless water heater, gets very hot instantly! Living room with a TV and lots of board games. The backyard is awesome! Hot tub with awning right off the deck. There is a gas grill, that works well. Fire pit area near the creek. Lots of photo ops in the backyard, take advantage. There is deer feed you can use daily to feed the local deer. read more

Enjoyed a perfect weekend getaway at hikers hideaway. The cabin has literally everything you need, including a hot tub right off the deck. It was winter when we stayed so we didn't spend anytime outdoors. Just cozied up inside with the fire and coffee and games. Every little touch in the cabin is so thoughtful and makes you feel like you're home, not in a rental. We didn't want to leave ! And we'll definitely return. read more

We rented Wolverine Den. Website pictures displayed a small but what appeared to be okay for the time we were there. However, the cabin was so tiny my wife and I could not both be in the same area of the cabin without being in each others way. We were informed of possible power outages, which did happen. Battery packs were available but instructions were very incomplete. After crawling around the floor in the dark I was able to get the heat to work. The pack was supposed to last 48 hours and it went dead in less than 6 hours. NO HEAT. Due to the "size" of the cabin it felt like we were living in the bedroom. As it turned out we were not happy with the conditions so we ended up leaving a day early. I did tell Betsy of the situation and she called me a grump......seriously. Too expensive, Never Again....I should say NOT. read more

Such a fun trip! We were unsure if we were going to make it out here or not but last minute we were able to pull it all together. The cabin is stoked with all the necessities so all we needed was food! Everything was very clean and cozy. We got Big Creek Cabin and we're excited to try other cabins in the future. We initially heard of Betsy's Cabins on facebook and they were running a special so we decided to try it out. So glad we did! We will be making this a more regular trip read more

I've stayed at four of Betsy's cabins, they're all wonderful, but Big Creek is my favorite, right on the creek! Laughing water and big creek are right next to each other, so perfect for multiple families vacation. The properties have gone through a recent update and look great! I would definitely recommend. read more

My family and I stayed here for 3 nights during the kids' spring break. The cabin was spacious, CLEAN and so welcoming. The ambience was great!!! From the decor, to light settings and the full kitchen!! We loved it! Kids didn't want to leave the cabin and they enjoyed learning about some of the "old snow equipment" in the living room. We're new to WA and we enjoyed being by the fire pit to roast marshmallows and hot dogs. The kitchen was equipped with EVERYTHING we needed.We will definitely be back! read more

The Serenity A-Frame was WONDERFUL! Great value, depending on where you place importance in a stay. We really wanted a hot tub to relax in (and hopefully see raccoons), so upgrading to a larger cabin was worth the price. It also includes spices you might need, oil, cutting boards, pots and pans, a propane grill, basic heating, a wood stove, an outside eating area, blankets, pillows, roasting sticks, toiletries, etc. There's a lot of love put into these cabins. There's bird seed for you to place in bird feeders on the deck, and board games to play in the den area. The owners tried to make it as comfortable as possible for the folks staying here. Some things to note: - The loft can be quite scary to climb up/down, but even with arthritis, I made it work. Not good for young kids or those with disabilities. - It's about a 30 minute drive into Mt Rainier trails to hike, and a close drive to Ashford where you can do laundry and get basic groceries. (Nothing fancy at the general store) - HUGE spiders everywhere. If you're super scared of them, please look out on the doors and areas you are walking. We gently nudged them away from the hot tub and grill areas, but be aware that you will encounter them at night and need to watch where you walk. - If you're staying multiple nights, wash the towels at the Laundromat so you have fresh ones when you want for the hot tub - The cabin can be easy to miss. Follow GPS exactly, and look out for a sign that says "Mtn A" and some lights near the hot tub - August/Early Sept is the best weather at Mt Rainier - but there will be mosquitoes! Bring repellent - Sometimes the larger cabins run cheaper than the smaller ones, depending on the days of the week/month you go! - The grill makes great food! Get some groceries at a Target/store outside of the mountain and stock up. The refrigerator in this cabin is a smaller size, but still roomy - just make sure you don't bring 12 six packs that you want to keep cold all at once. We really enjoyed our stay here, though we missed the instructions that it wasn't intended for 3 adults. It worked fine for us, but we felt bad because we didn't know if it was a rule or suggestion. We plan on coming with just 2 people next time and renting a bigger cabin for a different layout and location. Big Creek or Creekside seem to be an amazing value and we can't wait to return to Betsy's cabins. The grill, fire pit, and hot tub was a relaxing and fun experience. We made smores, grilled chicken, and corn on the cob. I really hope to see some raccoons next time!! read more

I stayed at Laughingwater over Labor Day Weekend and things were perfect! When they say the cabins are well-stocked, they mean the cabins have everything! It's nice to just throw your clothes and overnight items into a bag and head out. The hot tubs are an especially nice touch and well-maintained. Unfortunately I lost my cat over the weekend which made things quite stressful but Betsy and the housekeeping staff were so nice and helpful. I have the cat back and would definitely like to stay there again soon .... read more

We got to enjoy a weekend away at Big Creek and it was worth it! Not too far of a drive from home, which was nice. The cabin was adorable! My favorite spot was the porch swing. I sat out there every morning and drank coffee while taking in the scenery and enjoying the sounds of the creek. Unfortunately because of Covid-19, the National Forest hadn't opened up yet so we didn't get to explore there like we wanted to but it was still a fin getaway. The kiddos loved playing down by the creek and relaxing hot tub. read more

Stayed at the laughing water cabin. The deer were the highlight for sure. Daughter finally got them to eat out of her hand. Beware of the low low ceiling in the loft. Looks huge on the pic and steps are hard to navigate, but my 18 year old slept up there and it was fairly private for her. Everything else was wonderful and the proximity to Mt Rainer was awesome. read more

This was our 4th visit and once again, everything was perfect. Everything is clean, ample towels, everything you need in the kitchen. So needs are well taken care of. Now the extras, deer come by almost every day, and racoons come by every evening for snacks, provided by the owner. You are super close to the Park. These cabins are simply great!! read more

Trip Dates: 7/3/19-7/5/19 Cabin: Creekside Cabin My husband and I absolutely LOVED our stay at Betsy's Creekside Cabin last summer! Great location, close to Mt. Rainier NP but plenty of solitude at the cabin itself. Loved the hot tub, listening to the sounds of the woods and creek which border the property. Our cabin was furnished with basics including some groceries and a small "welcome basket" (including s'mores ingredients!) which was so nice after a long day of traveling. We ate dinner each night at the Copper Creek Restaurant, just a minute away from the cabin on our way to the national park. Betsy was very helpful during our booking process and was quick to answer/assist with any questions we had! We found ourselves wishing we had planned extra time in the Mt. Rainier segment of our trip to spend extra time in our lovely cabin. All in all, a wonderful stay, and would love to stay again in the future! read more

These cabins are very well appointed, clean, and comfortable. The location is ideal, it feels secluded and you'll see wildlife like deer every day. The owner responds quickly to emails and is pleasant to talk to. I'll definitely be back. read more

We stayed in Laughing Water. Great kitchen (we cook a lot!) and a/c, which was wonderful in heat of august. Super cozy cabin. Our 11 yo loved the loft. We loved the hot tub. Hope to be back in Fall. Close to great hikes and an amazing northwest artist gallery close by in Ashford. Our friends stayed nearby in Creekside and Big Creek so kids could walk easily between cabins. read more

My family of four rented the Creekside cabin and were very pleased with the amenities. We had our 2 month old and 2 year old and were given the convenient option to use a rented high chair and pack and play which made our lives a lot easier when packing up for the vacation. Everything was SPOTLESS! The hot tub appeared to be brand new and very clean. We also appreciated the quick responses from Betsy when we had questions about our upcoming stay. It rained our entire 3 night stay and because of how comfortable the cabin was, we didn't seem to mind. We highly recommend you book with Betsy's Cabins. We know we will be doing so for our next Mt. Rainier adventure. read more

We spent the weekend at the Hikers Hideaway with Betsy's cabin and enjoyed every minute of it. The kitchen was stocked with all the basics you could need, such as spices, wraps, pots, pans, cooking utensils, plates, bowls, glasses and even a wine opener and stoppers. We enjoyed the quiet atmosphere surrounding the cabin and the beautiful view of mountains. We spent the weekend by the fire pit roasting marshmallows and soaking in the hot tub. The cabin is super close to the Nisqually entrance for Mount Rainier. We will definitely be staying here again and I would definitely recommend it to anyone! We can't wait to go back. We have already been looking at our next trip. read more

My husband and I found Betsy's cabins during the last two years of the pandemic. We have visited 4 times and have stayed in the Serenity A-frame and Laughingwater. Serenity has a wood burning fireplace and has the privacy that we like. We are visited by deer, raccoons and local birds. The hot tub is great after a day of hiking and exploring. Laughingwater is close to the creek which is nice while sitting on the deck or in the hot tub. Both cabins have all the amenities of home. Every time we have to leave, I never want to go. I love the peacefulness of the mountains and highly recommend any cabin for a vacation, getaway or family trip. Christina and Paul Ruston, Wa read more

We went for our 2nd stay at the cabins and was equally as wonderful as the first time! The cabin is equipped with anything you could need, and they always leave a welcoming box of mix for muffins, pancakes, etc. The cabin is super clean and the beds are bliss. We couldn't be happier....again, and are planning our next stay. read more

We loved Betsy's Cabins! We stayed in the Serenity A-frame for a long anniversary weekend, and it was fabulous. We had everything we needed (and even more!) at the cabin, and it was a perfect spot to get away from the city for a few days. All the amenities at the cabin (hot tub, fire pit, BBQ, horseshoe pit, Roku, etc.) were wonderful and easy to use, and the cabin was surprisingly roomy for an A-frame (there were only 2 of us though). Betsy was easy to communicate with ahead of time, and all the instructions we needed were clear and easy to follow. Definitely recommend, we loved it! read more

Our stay at the Hiker's Hideaway cabin was fantastic! Everything we needed was there and more. The campfire ring is gorgeous and we really appreciated the supply of logs to use. We also thought the hot tub was fantastic--and much needed after a 10 mile cross country ski day! The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen well-stocked. We appreciated the Whirly-pop old fashioned popcorn maker and popping corn as well as the delicious custom coffee. The location was great with beautiful territorial views and a lot of privacy. With an electric car, we REALLY appreciated the charger and converter cable you provided. We actually picked the place because it had charging capabilities. read more

This place is an amazing getaway! I stayed in the big creek cabin it was cozy and clean. Great bedding, and the kitchen was completely stocked with stuff I needed to make comfort food stews I drank wine and read books by the fire. And if that wasn't enough, the hot tub on the patio was terrific, as well as the view and little path to a wooded creek. Betsy was amazing, even helping me when Apple Maps was trying to kill me. I cannot wait to go back! read more

The cabin was clean and homey. The decorative touches made it feel like maybe you were visiting a beloved older relative. I went because I needed time to myself with no roommate or anyone else and got exactly what I needed. It was quiet and peaceful, which was wonderful. The cabin had a kitchenette so that I could cook if chose, which seemed to be pretty well stocked with plates, bowls, cups, pans, etc or there are some good places to eat just a few minutes drive away. There's wifi in addition to a stereo and tv with vhs or dvd player, if you want that sort of thing along with an assortment of dvd's and cd's, including some children's dvd's. There was also a good assortment of books, which I greatly appreciated. I stayed up late the first night reading one. lol It's also close to Mt. Rainier, if you're interesting in going up there. read more

Great cabin, and so well stocked and cleaned. We are kinda picky and assume our expectations won't be met when booking a cabin in the woods. We were so impressed we couldn't stop commenting the entire first day. We will certainly return in the future. read more

We found ourselves in need of an adventure out of the city, and Betsy's beautiful cabin (we stayed at the Big Creek Cabin) was the perfect hideaway. This beautiful cabin has everything you could possibly need. We brought in our own food (but there are a few well-stocked general stores near by -- especially good for last minute s'mores) and loved spending time at the warm and cozy cabin for two nights. The wood stove is perfect for heating, with ample wood available. The hot tub is the perfect way to relax after a day of hiking at Mt. Rainer National Park (which is SO close, perfect to get there before the lines get too long), and the furry neighbors are very cute (and a little bossy for their food). Be forewarned: if you're scared of raccoons, this is not the cabin for you. read more

We loved staying at this cabin and soaking in the hot tub while watching the burbling creek go by. I created a fun Spotify playlist of river songs. We played it on the cabin's bluetooth speaker, and I sat in the living room singing at the top of my lungs, watching the creek go by. Betsy's Cabins are just outside the national park and incredibly convenient for visiting Longmire and Paradise. Also a short drive to the Copper Creek Inn, which has pie you must eat before you die. We spotted lots of elk on the road heading into the national park, too. This is a great place to stay! read more

During this last trip I stayed in four different rentals and, without question, Betsy's Deer Hideout was by far the best experience. Firstly, the location is right outside of Rainier on a quiet street. Beautiful drives in and out of the property. The unit itself is great--clean, well-decorated, lots of windows to view the surrounding trees. AND, while we happened to be there during a rare heatwave, the cabin stayed amazing cool. Did not expect that benefit. Last thing I'll say is that Betsy was communicative throughout the process and the one time I reached out to ask about something, an employee was at my door with a solution within minutes. Thank you, Betsy! read more

Stayed in Angie's a frame and had a wonderful time. The cabin is fully stocked with blankets, linen, spices, coffee, tea, and hot cocoa! Just outside of mt rainier it was a beautiful location, easy to find. We miss the cabin already! read more

We had a lovely stay at Hiker's Hideaway. The cabin had everything we needed! Spotless. Hot tub was in perfect order, and has a cute view. Huge yard. Email contact was quick. We will be back! read more

Had a great time with the family staying at one of the cabins. House had everything you can ask for: good rooms, propane grill, beautiful view in the living room. Also had a very private yard, with a creek as a border. Short drive to Paradise: get a multi-day pass and make as many quick jaunts to Mt. Rainier as you'd like! Just a lovely way to spend a few peaceful days unplugging from the daily grind. We'll be staying again. read more

Our family of five stayed in the Tahoma Vista cabin the week before the Fourth of July. After staying home and being isolated for three months, the change of scenery was welcome. The cabin was perfectly equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our time there. The kitchen was well-stocked. Small touches like extra hooks, extra towels, s'more makings and sticks, night lights, etc, meant we felt as comfortable and as welcome as can be. The kids especially loved the hot tub and we used it to soak our sore muscles after our long hikes in the National Park. The cabins were incredibly clean, which is more important now during the pandemic than ever, but always appreciated. The proximity to the National Park was absolutely perfect. Oh, how we want to go back! If you're looking for a perfect, comfortable, affordable jumping off point for a NP adventure, or just a cozy getaway, Betsy's Cabins is it! Our only regret is that we have lived here for seven years and only just now discovered Betsy's beautiful cabins. read more

We had a wonderful time at Betsy's Tahoma Vista Chalet. Everything was awesome: the hot tub, the comfortable beds, and the *very* well-stocked kitchen. There were so many comforting touches, such as the stuffed animals that the kids loved, the awesome bluetooth speaker that I loved, and the high-end TV that everybody loved. The whole place struck a wonderful balance between feeling cozy and rustic while still modern and up-to-date. I would highly recommend staying here for all of your Mt. Ranier vacations. One fun hike we discovered that is an easy walk from the cabin starts at Big Creek Campground and goes for miles - we ended up turning around after about 2.5 miles - a great way to enjoy the beautiful woods that surround the cabin. read more

We stayed at Big Creek cabin and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin was very nice, just like the picture, and was very clean. The hot tub and and personal fire pit was a big bonus. The cabin is fully stocked with everything you would need, just bring your own food and drinks. There is food to feed deer, birds an even the local raccoon. We enjoyed watching all the animals eat the food. This was a really great experience. Thank you! read more

We stayed in the Trillium cabin with our extended family for a family wedding this last weekend. We had ten family members at Trillium and another five across the street at Tahoma Vista. Trillium was a great space for all of us to hang out with a large living room and kitchen and lovely porch and hot tub and also many private areas to grab some time alone too. I hesitate to call Trillium a cabin as it is very large. It was very clean and well supplied. Our wifi was broken the first day we were there and we worried we would be totally off the grid (which wouldn't have been the worst thing but would make coordinating agendas difficult for the wedding). The internet company came the next day and fixed it (they had apparently upgraded the service and the original box couldn't accommodate the upgrade). After that we had screaming fast wifi :) The rental company was helpful, professional and responsive. Our additional family members staying across the street at Tahoma Vista were also very happy with their accommodations. read more
