Paradise Inn, National Park Service lodge in Pierce County, US
Paradise Inn features a wooden structure with a large central lobby, dining room, and guest rooms situated at 1600 meters elevation on Mount Rainier.
The Rainier National Park Company initiated construction of Paradise Inn in July 1916, opening its doors to visitors on July 1, 1917 with 37 guest rooms.
The registration desk, cedar tables, chairs, and decorative elements crafted by Hans Fraehnke represent the National Park Service rustic architectural style.
The inn operates from late May through September, providing accommodations, dining services, and a gift shop for Mount Rainier National Park visitors.
Workers used dead Alaska yellow cedar trees from a nearby forest fire to construct the building's distinctive timber frame structure.
