Was so grateful to get a room at all, and it was very nice! The hotel staff were all very nice and went out of their way to see that we were well taken care of. Breakfast was really good too! The room was clean and everything worked. Went to do some laundry and it was free! Total bonus after traveling for a week :-) They have lovely flowers and even though the building is old, it is well maintained and has no "old building ickiness".
Would definitely stay there again!

The cabin we stayed in was clean, modern, comfortable, and very easy to figure out the heating/cooling system. The check-in system worked great! I stayed with my two young children and their grandmother. Everyone was happy and rested in the morning. Great location if wanting to visit the Olympic National Park-HOH Rainforest.

This is such an incredible gem, everything in our cabin was hand picked and beautiful, we had everything we needed and beyond, the view was amazing and the area was so quiet and peaceful. The owners were super communicative and helpful with tips for the area. We will definitely come back!
