Room was very clean and spacious. We had a group and reserved a big room with several beds and were thrilled with the space the room had. It had two bathrooms, fireplace and everything we needed, including a full size fridge/freezer. Price was great too! Definitely recommend for big family or large group!!

Nice place. This is an older facility, but our room was clean, and we loved looking out our window and seeing the elk wandering around outside.

This was booked out of necessity. We just needed a place to stay one night. Everything was what I’d expected. A little run down motel but clean and usable. One complaint, it was over priced. One plus, the elk in the grass when we pulled in.

Great location for Mount Rainier NP. Local shop nearby but not much else. Rooms were really good, big and clean, and the air conditioning was good. Only had 1 dryer and 2 washing machines which was not enough for such a big property. The laundry room could have done with a bit of a clean.

The stay was OK. Lobby and front desk were not inviting and the room was a bit dated. Price was high for what you got. Felt safe and the elk that showed up in the evening and morning were the best part!

Not so great at the Cowlitz River Lodge
The room was nice and clean but it was not even close to the Cowlitz River. The staff was not friendly nor helpful - both at check-in and check-out. Will probably not ever stay at this hotel again.

It was a little older. Needs some minor touch ups. Air conditioner was way too loud. Difficult to sleep when it was running and had to have it running as it was too warm without it.

Go enjoy the park then check in.
Very nice place but they are super strict about check in and shorthanded so don't expect to get in early or even right at 3:00. They no longer offer any kind of breakfast. Strange metal bedskirt that klanked every time you sat down or moved. Nice to have AC.
