Perfect wonderland cabin!
Clean and cosy, rustic and relaxing- a perfect location to the park, with all the amenities you can imagine, and then some. The Denali memorabilia is really special. My kids say it's the best place ever and they loved hanging in the swing chair!

Wonderful stay! It was a quiet and peaceful stay. It is a remote-ish area, so there is no cell signal, though the WiFi works well. The shower is a little inaccessible for folks with mobility issues but is definitely functional. Overall, a wonderful stay for my family and I. Everytime we thought, "I wonder if they have this thing," they did! They provided hiking sticks, chairs, etc. I would highly recommend if you're looking for a peaceful, quiet weekend away!

Amazing place!

Exceeded expectations!
We had such a fantastic stay at Nelson Base Camp, what a wonderful place! The hosts made sure the property was extremely well prepared for our arrival, and the place and proximity to Mt Rainier was perfect. The space was exactly what we needed for a weekend escape, and the hot tub and firepit were great bonuses. We would absolutely love to stay again.

Liked: Check-in
Not bad
Cute cozy cabin with a great location close to Mt Rainier. Lot of good lighting during the day with nice windows. Check in was a little difficult because they did not let us know the front glass door was broken so cannot go in through there. AC was not working and the shower drain is very clogged. Also a lot of bugs but probably can’t do much about this in the woods.
