The cabin is severely overpriced for its age and condition. The rooms are worn down, the kitchen lacks basic equipment, and everything feels unclean with a noticeable musty odor. Service was poor, and overall, it was a very disappointing experience. I would not recommend staying here.

Overall, an enjoyable stay

Overall, our stay at the Rainforest Resort was very good. The location is excellent, there is a restaurant for dinner on site as well as a general store. Check in was easy and Ian was very kind, friendly, and helpful. The location is convenient to lots of trails and some of the beach areas. The Rainforest Resort has a variety of cabins and rooms available, but since we prefer to make most of our meals, we chose the studio apartment room above the public laundry and showers. We had no issues with noise or lots of people at any time. It was perfect for two people. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and clean. If you like a super firm bed, this isn’t the one for you. The comforter, blanket, decorative pillows, plastic blinds, and ruffly window toppers could use replacing as all are very dated. Some of the plastic blinds were broken and some could not be cracked- you either had to have them up or down. The carpet appeared in good condition and the older wood furniture provided plenty of drawer and surface space for belongings. It was nice to have a nightstand on each side of the bed. The closet had hangers and was sufficient. The bathroom was typical with one sink, toilet, and tub/shower combo. It had good water pressure and drained well. They provided very small hand soaps, small individual packages of shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and bath/face towels. The room has a wall mounted a/c-heat system (similar to what you find in a hotel room), a portable fan, and small flat screen tv. There was a partial view of the lake from two of the windows. While the kitchen had the essentials, everything could use updating and replacing, including the cracked kitchen light cover. The wood cabinets, Formica countertops, stove/oven are old and worn. Before touching anything, I wiped everything down with a Lysol wipe as it just seemed dingy/sticky. There is a small, counter sized refrigerator/freezer, a 2 slice toaster, and a 4-cup coffee maker. They provide complimentary coffee packets for it, but if you want creamer, bring your own. The microwave was fine. They provide dish soap and a sponge and a couple of dish rags, but no paper towels, foil, etc. Although there is an oven, there was only one cookie pan and it was too big to fit in the oven and there were no pot holders. There was a garbage can between the bedroom area and the kitchen, but it had no cover, so we asked for another garbage bag and used that to cover the can. Overall, for our 4 night stay, the room was efficient and we appreciated Ian’s friendliness.

This is a great place to stay right on the lake. There is ample free parking available. The rooms are large, clean, quiet and very comfortable. Ours also had a balcony overlooking the lake and we had a fabulous sunset to enjoy. There is a restaurant on site.

beautiful area; good place to stay; not many services in the area

The location was stunning, and the area beautiful and quiet. The rainforest trails start about 5min down the road and are great and there are no crowds. There are some really nice trails on the other side of the lake too. We ate at the onsite restaurant The Salmon house which was very good as was breakfast at the Roosevelt Room at Lake Quinault lodge down the street. Dinner is available there as well. The rooms were fine. We did not hear any neighbors or street noise. It was clean, comfortable; there was a fridge, microwave, coffee maker. The hosts across the street are friendly and very welcoming. There's not much wifi or cell service in the area, so we couldn't stream, but I don't think that's specific to this hotel. There are not many services in the area, but some grocereies/wine available at check in area.

We were tired, it was late and we needed a place to stay. Very expensive for what they provide. My room smelled like mold and mildew the entire stay for $200 - I will never get back. I do not recommend staying at this place unless you are desperate.
