As Seen in Seattle Magazine | Cedar Sauna, Hot Tub & Old-Growth Forest | Nisqually Entrance to Mt. Rainier

Featured in Seattle Magazine, Fjellsangin is a modern alpine cabin set against old-growth forest at the Nisqually entrance to Mount Rainier. The Nordic wellness circuit includes a cedar-lined sauna, hot tub pavilion, and outdoor shower with a glacial boulder seat. Taj Mahal quartzite kitchen, Jøtul gas fireplace, and two king bedrooms. The Nisqually entrance is ten minutes away. Paradise is forty-five.

Check-in and check-out are contactless. The cabin is yours from the moment you arrive — no host on-site, no interruptions. We’re reachable by text or phone if you need anything: local recommendations, assistance, or just a question answered.

Experience add-ons — dinner kits, sauna ritual upgrades, and wellness extras — must be reserved at least 7 days before arrival. Happy to help you sort those out before your stay.


Fjellsangin sits on Mount Tahoma Canyon Road East — the original wagon trail into Mount Rainier National Park, now a quiet, forested stretch that most visitors drive past without knowing it’s there. The Nisqually entrance is ten minutes east. Paradise is forty-five.

Ashford is a small mountain town with a handful of places worth knowing. Paradise Village, a short walk from the cabin, is a Ukrainian-owned restaurant and bakery making handmade pierogi, borscht, and honey cake. Wildberry Restaurant serves Himalayan mountain cuisine. Whittaker’s Bunkhouse has coffee and ice cream. BaseCamp Grill does casual food and live music on weekends.

For trails: Longmire Historic District is the closest, Myrtle Falls is a short hike from Paradise, and the wildflower meadows up top are worth the drive in July and August. In winter, the area goes quiet — snowshoeing, snow-draped forest, and very few other people.

The cabin has fast Wi-Fi. Once you’re here, you may not want it.


Guests have full private access to the cabin and all outdoor spaces, including the cedar-lined sauna, hot tub pavilion, wood-burning fire pit, furnished deck, and BBQ grill. Inside: a chef’s kitchen, in-unit washer and dryer, and coffee and tea bar.

Private on-site parking and a Level 2 EV charger are included.

Experience add-ons — dinner kits, sauna ritual upgrades, and wellness amenities — must be reserved at least 7 days before arrival and will be ready at check-in.

The owner’s closet and linen supply closet are locked and reserved for property use. Everything else is yours.


Fjellsangin is a two-bedroom alpine cabin designed to blend with the forest. Every window was placed deliberately — to frame a tree line, let in morning light, or position you facing the right direction when you wake up.

Living Area
The open-concept living room centers on a Jøtul gas fireplace with comfortable seating and forest views on all sides. A Roku TV, PlayStation, and Marshall Bluetooth speaker are available for evenings in, alongside a selection of books and games.

Kitchen
Built to cook in. Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, walnut cabinetry, live-edge open shelving, and a mother-of-pearl coin tile backsplash. Electric range, dishwasher, high-quality cookware, and a stocked spice pantry. The large island with bar seating anchors the dining area.

Coffee & Tea Bar
Built into the kitchen: drip, Keurig, and French press, with a rotating selection of local blends, herbal teas, and guest favorites. A quiet ritual for slow mornings and post-hike afternoons.

Primary Bedroom
Main floor. King bed, soft linens, forest-facing windows, ambient lighting, Roku TV, and a white noise machine.

Upper Bedroom
King bed, vaulted ceilings, warm wood finishes, Roku TV, and a white noise machine. Quieter than the main floor.

Loft
Open loft with a queen sofa bed and lounge chair, overlooking the living area below. Good for reading, lounging, or a sixth guest.

Bathrooms
Two full bathrooms — one per floor — each with a large walk-in shower, plush towels, luxury robes, and Grown Alchemist toiletries.

Outdoor Spaces
The hot tub pavilion is set among the evergreens with a JBL wireless speaker. The cedar-lined sauna and outdoor shower with a glacial boulder seat sit nearby. Wood-burning fire pit, BBQ grill, and a furnished deck for after dark.

Additional Amenities
In-unit washer and dryer, Level 2 EV charger, high-speed Wi-Fi. The owner’s closet and the linen supply closet are locked and reserved for property use.

Specialty kitchen appliances include a waffle iron, an electric griddle, an air fryer, and a slow cooker.


Fjellsangin is in Ashford, Washington, minutes from the Nisqually entrance to Mount Rainier National Park. This is a remote mountain community, and a personal vehicle is required — there is no public transportation in the area.

The Perfect Getaway Cabin for Relaxation

I did a weekend stay at Fjellsangin with my best gal pals! We spent the weekend relaxing in the on-site sauna and hot tub, sitting around the fire, and cooking in the incredible kitchen. We used the comfortable outdoor patio set and read and knitted on the indoor couch by the fireplace. What stands out about this cabin is that you'll never want to leave. You'll sit there thinking, "Should I just live here?" The cabin's design was clearly well thought out. There was plenty of space for the four of us, and even with six guests (the max), you will not feel cramped like in some other cabins. Our hosts put together a wonderful welcome basket with goodies for our stay, and we reserved a charcuterie board from their add-on provisions. I would highly recommend doing at least one of their meal kits or pre-made boards. It was so nice to have it ready and waiting for us when we arrived. The cabin is located near the Nisqually entrance of Rainier, making it the perfect home base for a day spent in the park. We also were able to walk from the cabin into Ashford for a delicious coffee at Whittaker's and spent some time perusing the Ashford Creek Art Gallery and Museum. There is plenty to do around the cabin, but we found ourselves wanting to relax and enjoy the gorgeous space. At Fjellsangin, you can expect a spotlessly clean stay, cozy seating, comfortable beds and linens, and a peaceful atmosphere. This cabin is perfect for a girls' weekend. It was one of the best cabin experiences I have had in Washington, and I cannot wait for a repeat stay.
