Paradise Inn - Mount Rainier National Park - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

The Paradise Inn was built in 1917 in the historic rustic park-style of architecture. It has 118 rooms, a restaurant and lounge inside.

In 1919, Hans Fraehnke, a German carpenter, designed and built much of the decorative woodwork that exists today inside the inn, including a rustic piano and a 14 foot grandfather clock.

Starting in 2005 the Inn is undergoing an extensive renovation and is slated to re-open in the 2008 season. A new Visitor center is being constructed next door to replace the Jackson Visitor Center.
