About this property

Timberline Creekside Chalet @ Mt Rainier-Sleeps10- Wave WIFI, Pets Welcome!

Our Rustic Packwood cabin has been renovated and we updated several features inside and out.

We’ve recently renovated our Cabin and added several new additions throughout:

*New appliances and counter tops to our kitchen
*Large outdoor deck (facing coal creek),
*Whir-pool stacked washer and dryer set
*4K 55 inch Samsung smart TV ( featuring Hulu live, Roku, Netflix and Amazon Prime video).
*Wave WiFi throughout the cabin
*40” TV with blue ray in the kids bunk area-

We also have a game closet downstairs featuring monopoly, Jenga, battleship, Pictionary, and a few other classics.

Our cabin was built in 1964, and the previous family had 50 years of memories within this vintage chalet. After 5 years of enjoying several wonderful family ski outings, we’ve decided to share this experience with others. Be the first person or family to explore the great outdoors while staying at the Coal Creek Chalet!

*We try to provide 1 small bundle of wood per night- We make our best efforts to supply a starter amount of wood per day but can not guarantee supplies if guests burn more than allotted bundles-



BASIC HOUSE RULES

*Please contact me immediately if anyone within your group displays any type of flu like symptoms or temperatures. We’re more than happy to reschedule your trip at no additional cost, or refund you at 100% up until check in. Our top priority is keeping our family cabin clean and safe for our guests in order to provide the best vrbo vacation experience.

Our damage deposit is 300.00$

Absolutely NO HOUSE parties on the premise. Loud music, exceeding the guest limit, Bon fires outside of the designated rock circle will result in immediate eviction and damage deposit forfeiture.

*Exceeding 10 people will result in a damage deposit forfeiture as our septic system can’t handle more than 10 guests- Remember, it’s not just the flushes, it’s the showers and laundry as well. Thanks for understanding.


The community has several permanent residents mixed in with folks looking for a quiet relaxing get-away. If there’s a loud party, we’ll get a call. Please only utilize the outdoor deck at campfire are til 10pm. All voices and sounds travel right over the creek and tend to keep people up.

Please remove shoes upon entry and clean off any furry friends to help keep the cabin clean for our next guests.

*We're pet friendly up to 2 dogs max, but please no cats. We have a cat of our own at home, but due to possible allergenic issues, we don't allow cats within our Chalet.

*Our cleaning fee is set at 125$

*Check-in time is 4:00PM. Check-out time is 11:00 AM.

We unfortunately can’t accommodate requests for early check-ins or late check-outs, as we have a scheduled cleaning time frame.

Flushing anything other than pee, poop or toilet paper will automatically forfeit your damage deposit. You'll back up the septic system, which carries severe consequences. The minimum charge to clear a blockage is currently $300.00 as we’re limited with services in Packwood.

Because of septic limitations, the maximum occupancy at this property is 10 persons, and no more than 10 people are allowed on the property at any given time. We cannot make any exceptions for larger parties. Parties of 10+ will be evicted without compensation.

*Small children are not allowed on the Bunk bed ladders, or on upper bunk beds. Children (all guests) are NOT allowed to jump off bunk beds. Lastly, the upstairs French door is a FIRE EXIT only- Guests are not allowed to use the upper balcony as the door is difficult to lock, and the balcony isn’t safe. We have a new large deck at ground level that faces out to Coal Creek for your enjoyment!

We provide firewood for the fireplace inside, but if you wish to burn within our designated outdoor fire-pit, you can buy bundles of wood for sale at Blanton's Supermarket in town.

The Washington Department of Natural Resources often restricts the burning of fires in the summer to prevent wildfires. Burning during a ban is dangerous; the penalties are severe, and any violators will be immediately evicted without negotiation or compensation. Please consult with the local fire department regarding burn ban status before starting any type of fire.

Amplified music is not allowed anywhere on the deck or in the front yard. Please be extra mindful of quiet hours that start at 10pm and last til 7am.

The forest, creek and nearby Cowlitz river are breath taking. Please be mindful of your footprint, and do your part to respect and preserve this special place. Don't harm the trees, dump waste, litter, or burn anything outside of the fire ring. Bag your pet's poop every time.

As the registered guest, you're required to share this information with others in your party and take responsibility for any damage(s) they might incur during your stay.

Lovely setting
We had a great experience in Packwood. We were close to town for Packwood Brewery and the grocery store. The Paradise entrance to Mt. Rainier was about 90 minutes away. 90 minutes in the other direction was some great fly fishing in the Yakima River Valley.

Fantastic home base for Mount Rainier exploration
We had a great stay for the five nights we were there. Nicely furnished, plenty of games and a well-equipped kitchen, and a great location. We kept the windows open at night and in the cool of the morning and then closed them during the heat of the day, and we were very comfortable without heating or fans, but I'm sure the fireplace would be a great asset in cooler weather.

Cabin with an amazing view!
This property was out of a fairytale. The kids loved playing in the creek/river and the playroom was perfect for them. The house was stocked well with everything we would need. My ONLY complaint is that the weekend we were there, it was pretty warm weather (80-90 degrees). The cabin was HOT. There was little air circulation and although we were provided many fans… we couldn’t sleep. I think to invest in a portable AC unit would mean everything in the summer months. Otherwise, the trip was perfect. We wish to be back someday soon.

Beautiful Respite From The Heat!
"Hi Karsten, Thank you for asking. We had such a wonderful time. Packwood was a beautiful respite from the heat. We enjoyed our National Parks and the wildlife too! But I have to say the little cabin was so sweet. Everything was as pictured and described. Above and beyond that, your attention to detail, as well as thoughtful appointments and all the extra touches were very much appreciated. ~ Sherron"

Great location for visiting Mount Rainier
Great little cabin for the 5 of us to stay as we visited and hiked each day at Mount Rainier. The kitchen had everything we needed to pull together lunches for our hikes and a quick dinner or breakfast. Beds were comfortable and the creek was nice right behind the cabin. Great to have two bathrooms, plenty of nice towels and a washer and dryer to use. We played games at the big kitchen table and the picnic table on the deck. Appreciated all of the amenities! So nice to have soaps, shampoo, and cream rinse. Thanks! Enjoyed our stay!

Family trip to Mt. Rainier
Great location for day trips around Rainier. The home was very comfortable for our group of 9. The hosts took extra care to provide extra amenities, high quality linens and the comforts of home. Kids enjoyed the games and toys and the well appoint “kid suite” upstairs with bunk beds. The location is near the river but not right on it so plan to drag a chair a few yards around the corner for beautiful sunrises and animal/fish watching.

The cabin is clean, well stocked with everything you would need and has a rustic modern charm. The location is just perfect. Super close to the National Park entrance and Packwood with restaurants and grocery store just 5 minutes down the road. The Cowlitz river and mountain views by the cabin are stunning.

While there was only 3 of us, the place is well set up for a larger group. The location was great, right next to a creek and one lot away from the Cowlitz, so lots of pleasant white noise from the creek. We would rent the place again for another summer visit or during winter.

We loved the location of this house near Mt. Rainier and the small town of Packwood (check out the brewery for good drinks and food). The neighborhood was wonderful with tons of trees, cute cabins, and the creek. The bunkroom was so much fun for the kids with lots of toys, video games and big cozy beanbags. We enjoyed the back patio where all you can hear is the rushing water. Thank you!
