This property and home is stunning!!! Tons of space inside the home, kitchen is stocked with everything you need, tons of games and space for entertainment, beds are heavenly, quiet and peaceful. Everything was perfect. We absolutely loved our stay and wish we would have booked more evenings. Would definitely rebook in the future
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Hinkle Tinkle Hideaway offered by Owner, Kim G. We found the indoor property in good condition. Everything working properly with no issues. The outdoor property is pleasantly forested with trees, picnic tables, seating and a fire pit. Even a hammock to rock and relax in. The covered back porch nicely extends the living space to give an outdoors feeling in the comfort of protection from outdoor elements. I enjoyed having a fully stocked kitchen with everything we needed to cook and enjoy eating our own meals. The furnishings are tastefully designed and comfortable for sleeping, watching TV, etc. Lots of games available for a rainy day and outdoor games for good weather. Which we had both on our stay. If you need a place to land while visiting Mt. Rainier National Forest, this property is a good choice.
We enjoyed our beautiful, very comfortable, well stocked vacation home! So close to the Steven's Canyon entrance to Mt Rainier Park, 20min drive. Town is close for grocery and restaurants. Comfy beds!!
This was a family trip to visit Mount Rainier. The accommodations were spacious and comfortable. If the park wasn’t so magnificent, I would have spend more time on this wonderful property.
It is a nice property. Quiet and very cozy. It was not until out last night that we noticed the fairy lights in the trees! So cool! The beds were comfortable and there was enough room in the house to stretch out and be comfortable. My daughter really enjoyed the swings.
This was a fantastic place to stay for our family, for a little trip to Mount Rainier. It had everything we could possibly need. It was clean and has a very well stocked kitchen. We'll definitely stay again.
A beautiful, roomy home right in the middle of nature. Very convenient location. House well-stocked with dishes, utensils, various food items, and more. It was wonderful. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!
We had the best time staying at Kim‘s property! It was the perfect homebase for our week at Mount Rainier National Park. This is our third visit to Packwood and by far our favorite of all the places we stayed. The living quarters were much bigger than we expected. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could have wanted. It was great having the washer and dryer available after long days on dusty trails. The beds were super comfortable and the porch was awesome. I just can’t say enough good things about our stay here. We are already planning our return!
Kitchen well equipped, large tv with plenty of seating, comfy beds, lots of hot water, covered parking. Loved the three season porch in the morning and after hiking! Close to MT Rainier National Park!
This is a wonderful vacation rental! We loved the privacy and the wooded location. We spent our days in Mount Rainier and our evenings at the house. The house was well stocked, clean and comfortable. Our mountain dreams came true.
Our 3rd year in a row staying here in June. It was perfect, as it always is! Elk walked through the property as they do every year. Beautiful creek running through. It’s the perfect little spot in the woods, calm and serene. The home is outfitted very nicely and so clean! Comfortable and lovely!
The home was in a secluded, private area...very quiet! It offered many more amenities than we had time to use. Kim (owner) was attentive and available, but since instructions for the property were so well thought out and explained, we didn't need to reach out for any assistance. Great base camp for hiking near Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens. Thanks!!
The house was just as the pictures showed. Everything was very clean, the bed was so comfortable! Anything you could possible need in the kitchen was there. The home was very easy to locate in a quiet, private area. This would also be a great house if you had children as it has a huge yard, stream running through the back of the property and lots of places to explore. It was just a short drive to Mt. Rainier. Packwood is a cute little town. If you need groceries, there is a great grocery store in town (about 5 minutes from the home). We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent here. Thanks Kim.
Kim's place is very comfortable, clean, and well stocked. It's probably the best kitchen set up I've experienced. I also appreciated what she had available in the bathrooms. The home was very cozy and the beds were especially comfy. The property was beautiful and fun to explore. Kim was a great communicator and was very helpful.
We had a great stay at the hinkle tinkle hideaway. It was the perfect spot for a family of four with two kids who are just getting big enough to really need their own spaces. It worked out great! It was well stocked so we could easily prepare some great meals too. Cooking there was a breeze. They thought of every detail and made it very easy. Highly recommend!
Cozy & relaxing. The home had everything we needed. Comfy bed, quiet porch, stocked kitchen. Closer to Mt Rainer. Good communication with the owner. Thanks for a wonderful stay.:
Very nice, comfortable home, nice property (one morning woke up to a large group of Elk). About 5 minutes from downtown Packwood. Must visit Mountain Goat Coffee! The house is within 15 minutes to just over an hour from many hiking trails. The house has everything you need! Owner is awesome! Thanks for sharing your property!
I stayed here for two nights with my friends. We spent the days hiking at Mount Rainier National Park and came back to the cabin for the evenings. The cabin was well stocked, clean, and met our needs. We loved the screened in porch room, hammock, grill and fire pit. The property manager was easy to communicate with and overall we had a great stay.
Beautiful place! Lots of games! Lots of extras - seasonings, s’mores, teas, and coffee! Host said welcome to anything there! Comfortable beds! Beautiful sunroom!
Hinkle Tinkle Hideaway was a great, quiet place to stay - we enjoyed the games and the porch, and we slept well in the comfortable beds. Everything was as described, and the host was very responsive and communicative. Thank you for sharing your home!
My ex-wife’s father died this past weekend, so my two sons flew to Minneapolis for their grandfather’s funeral and missed this leg of our vacation. Thus, I was alone in the house, and needed to check out at 6 am to get to the airport in time to pick them up for the remainder of our adventures. The house was a good base of operation for exploring Mt. Ranier, but was under-utilized for only one person.

About the host
Hosted by Kim Grenfell
This property is very special to our family as we all enjoy the mountains and getting outdoors. My husband John and I both grew up in Hood River, OR and wanted our kids to experience the outdoors and small town experience. Packwood has delivered all this and more. We hope you too will visit this special place and all it has to offer.
Why they chose this property
We wanted to be in the mountains and love being located so close to Mt. Rainer and White Pass Ski Resort where both of our children, and many friends and family, have learned to ski.
What makes this property unique
The first time we drove into Packwood and looked up at Mt. Rainer we fell in love. We knew within the first 5 minutes of walking our property with Hinkle Tinkle creek running through it, the beautiful view of Goat Rocks, Johnson Peak and the short proximity to Cowlitz River, Mt. Rainer and White Pass Ski Resort that we had to have it.
