The Carpenter's Cottage- Serene; 2Bed, 1 bath, w/hot tub!

The carpenter's cottage is decorated in vintage woodworking and logging tools that have been used for several generations in our family. Rainier has a rich history of logging, lumber and woodworking. Some tools have been found nearby.
Enjoy a peaceful country setting with deer, birds, occasional bobcat, squirrels, raccoons, occasional elk, but is a short walk to town.
Watch deer munch on apples and relax in the shade as you walk around our 14 acres or enjoy them from your windows.

We had a great stay at the cottage. The place is fully stocked with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. The deck overlooks the beautiful trees and the setting is very peaceful. The location is great for visiting the surrounding areas. The hot tub was an added bonus after a long day of sight seeing. We even got a visit from local wildlife!

Just WOW!

This home was amazing in every way! It was clean, inviting, comfy, and the location can't be beat! The off-street, private parking had ample room and was safe, which was very important to us. The short stairs leading to the deck and front door were manageable for my husband, who uses a cane. The rest of the home was very accessible, which we did not specifically need, but definitely appreciated.Our family usually stays in hotels, but since all 4 of us were there for a week we wanted more space. This home was absolutely ideal for us!The kitchen was stocked with everything necessary, the washer and dryer were great to be able to use during our stay, the beds were comfortable, and everything in the bathroom worked as expected. The hot tub and massaging recliner were amazing! Our favorite area was the huge wraparound deck and the firepit was a welcoming place to relax when the nights were chilly. We had both family and business in Longview so the location was ideal. The scenery, including the mama deer and her fawn who came to eat grass as we watched from the deck, was so refreshing and peaceful. Being able to enjoy the many touches throughout the home from this family's history in the timber industry was wonderful and those details made it all the more special. We sincerely hope to visit again. Thank you for making our New Mexico family's first trip to the Pacific North West so memorable!
