About this property

a riverfront retreat nestles on the Cowlitz River

  • Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. The Cowlitz River Cottage is perfectly situated to explore the best of Pacific North West mountain life. Easy access to White Pass Ski Area (20 min), and Mt. Rainier National Park (Stevens Canyon Entrance, 17 min). Golfing and swimming pool just a mile away for the warm summer days. Come back to your home base and listen to the river running just steps away. It’s never a bad time to get away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy living tiny.

First time in WA

We absolutely loved our stay at the cottage. I created a whole trip to WA just to stay here and it was totally worth it! The view from the cottage are unbelievable. Andrea was so helpful with tips on short hikes and places to visit in town. Loved this place and will be back!

Amazing Spot

This place is magical! Grab your wine and sit by the river for true peace. I will say, if you are over 6 feet, it is a little tight so watch your head.

Beautiful home, and location

Maximized the tiny space for ultimate comfort, and function. View cannot be beat. Convenient location to Mount Rainier and Packwood. Great host who even checked in with us during a pop-up thunderstorm to see our power went out and offered to bring us candles. Highly recommend.

What more do you need!

This listing caught my eye from the moment I saw it earlier this year because of the riverfront and the mountain views and it did not disappoint at all. In fact, our stay may have converted my wife and I to a tiny home lifestyle after this past weekend. This place felt so much like a home with such awesome attention to detail. It was well worth the commute to Rainier for a couple days of hiking and the little town of Packwood was an amazing escape from our busy city life in Texas. Andrea was a perfect communicator and we’re thankful this was an option for our trip to WA. We’d absolutely recommend this listing and we would love to stay again one day!

Great Stay!

This was a wonderful stay! The view was out of this world! Everything was exactly as described! We even had a herd of Elk walk down the road in front of the cabin one morning! So neat! The only thing I would recommend if you're planning to stay in a tiny house (any not just this one) is that you understand that there is limited water usage. I didn't realize that and require long steamy showers when on vacation to help with chronically dry sinuses. I also didn't think about the loft being straight up a hard ladder. 100% as described, but it was too challenging for my daughter with mobility issues. Overall I wouldn't change a single thing about this place! It was beautiful, communication was fantastic, and location was irreplaceable.

Great little place

This house is definitely tiny, but a fun adventure. We loved the tranquility of the river and the proximity to Mt. Rainier. We enjoyed the gnome walk as well. Packwood was cute as well. We had snacks and ice cream at the brewery.
