Packwood, Washington is located on Highway 12, considered a major mountain pass through the Cascade Mts. and is kept open year round; maintained by hard working road crews. The drive from any direction is beautiful and scenic at any time of the year.
Although Packwood does not have a traffic light, they do have year round citizens who love living here! This is one resort town that NEVER sits empty through down seasons. This makes it a real asset to those who are considering investing in a vacation home. The Cowlitz River also plays a major role in this community and those who are planning on purchasing in this area need to ask questions about the flood plain and what that means to property values and the ability to build!
Packwood Hideaway View Estates sit high on the hill well above the town and the river. The unique location has wide open views of spectacular Mt. Rainier. AND the surrounding mountains and valley. If you are coming to Packwood to play, consider taking five minutes from Highway 12 and see what this new community has to offer! If you plan on building in the years ahead and want to purchase land that will NOT change, this may be for you.
White Pass Ski area is expanding this year! They are opening the Hogback, which will attract those who want a big ski hill but the small town feel with their families. Packwood is family friendly and welcoming!
