Mt. Rainier Hotels??
Does anyone have a suggestion for a hotel/motel near Mt. Rainier?
Our family of 3 is planning a visit next summer and are looking for a reasonably priced place to stay. We plan to spend most of our time outside in the park and are looking for a basic, clean place to stay (not too interested in luxury, spas, etc). Thanks, Ron Pagano |

Thanks, Ron Pagano There are a bunch of hotels and cabins just outside the park I stayed at one of Jasmers cabins and it was superb and excellent value, the highlight was the deer that came right up to the door, I highly recommend them http://www.jasmers.com Keith |

There are 2 lodges inside the park, and motels and cabins just outside the Longmire gate. Since I live in the area, I don't know much about the accommodations. Warning: there is still lots of snow at Paradise in early July. The mountain wildflowers are at their best in late July and early August. And it may start to snow again in September. Marianne |

Try Ashford, Randle or Eatonville.

Enumclaw is about the same distance away as some of the cities you mention, but a little bigger with a better motel selection. Enumclaw is about 30 miles from the NE entrance to Mt. Ranier (about 20 miles closer than Auburn, which is about 50 miles from Mt. Ranier, not 20). We used to stay in Enumclaw when skiing at Crystal Mtn. wrote: Try Ashford, Randle or Eatonville.

The reason I didn't mention Enumclaw, which is 16 miles closer than Auburn and probably the closest town to Mt. Rainier is that sometimes all their motels are filled during tourist season and especially during the King County Fair which is in Enumclaw.

KM The Fair's in Puyallup. And it's in September, generally after the height of tourist season. A few years back, before moving to Washington, we used to stay at a place called Nisqually Lodge in Ashford. It was clean, comfortable, inexpensive, and about 4 miles west of the Nisqually entrance to Mt. Rainier NP. |

I missed the "King County" part. But the Puyallup Fair is the big gorilla of the local ones; in fact, one of the biggest in the country. Late every summer we are bombarded with commercials and adverts demanding that we "Do the Puyallup". It's a very annoying jingle :-) |
