My partner and I decided we wanted to visit Mt Rainier National Park to celebrate 9 wonderful years of love, and the Lil' Finch cabin was SUCH an amazing part of an incredible weekend. Kent and Kari were very communicative and let us know about what potential needs we might have, from grocery shopping to firewood and where to buy rainier passes and what time to leave to avoid so much of the traffic into the park!
The cabin itself was stunning and had so many amenities - a kitchen for us to cook our meals, a smart tv for any relaxation needs (we brought a computer and our HDMI cord to stream a series and it worked amazing!), a nice shower complete with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, a heated towel rack and heated floors throughout the first floor of the cabin, a grill, a fire table, a fire pit (though there was currently a burn ban on flames over 2 feet), a hammock to relax in, and of course the hot tub and sauna! The sauna also has a bucket with a spoon so that you can pour water over the stones to make it a steam room. We made sure to enjoy almost all of these (we had nothing to grill) and it really made our stay feel so glamorous and relaxing. The cabin is very close to the Nisqually entrance to MRNP and when leaving at 9 am on a Saturday it only took us about an hour to reach the Paradise visitor center, and only about 20 minutes in traffic waiting to enter the park! It's also about a half hour from Alder lake which has a lovely beach spot we enjoyed. 10/10!!!
