Adventure Starts Just Minutes from the Cabin

Hemlock Haven puts you close to Mount Rainier while giving you a peaceful forest retreat to return to when the day’s exploring is done.

The Main Event

Mount Rainier National Park

Hemlock Haven is approximately seven minutes from Mount Rainier’s Nisqually entrance, making it easy to get an early start in the park and return to the cabin when you’re ready to relax.

From scenic drives and waterfalls to alpine meadows and challenging hikes, the park offers dramatically different experiences throughout the year.

Hit the Trail

Whether you’re looking for a scenic walk or a full day on the mountain, Mount Rainier offers trails for a wide range of abilities and ambitions.

Close to Home

Explore Ashford

Ashford is the small gateway community outside the Nisqually entrance. Restaurants, coffee and basic groceries are within a short drive of Hemlock Haven, making it easy to pick up what you need without traveling far from the cabin.

Every Season Feels Different Here

Mount Rainier changes dramatically with the seasons, and weather and access can change quickly.

Before heading into the park, we recommend checking current National Park Service information for road status, weather, closures and other conditions that may affect your plans.
