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.

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.

Published Date: Aug, 21, 2024 Travel Date: Aug, 1, 2024 Rating: 2 I have no idea how this motel has an average of four stars on tripadvisor. It was a real disappointment. We could hear everything from the room above. All the furniture was dated and marred. No refrigerator and nearest ice in the general store. No AC in one of the rooms. The bedding was old fashioned motel- polyester blanket and comforter. Wood Paneled bathroom was something. really low bathroom sink. The carpeting had multiple stains. We paid $280 for a two bedroom two queen room. There was a nice view of the lake.
Basic cabins by a lake with a restaurant & store.

Published Date: Jul, 12, 2024 Travel Date: Jul, 1, 2024 Rating: 4 The employees at checkin were very friendly and welcoming. We stayed in a cabin. The interior was furnished like a typical motel room. Everything was clean and comfortable. The shower turned off without warning then I noticed a small red button on the shower head that stops the flow of water if it gets too hot. I reset it and it started working again. There is a restaurant and small store. The restaurant does not serve breakfast. The WiFi is VERY slow but works for basic email and text. Don’t plan on streaming anything. No real marked off swimming beach and no boat rentals. I guess I was expecting rentals because they show 3 boats in their add. We paid $300 a night which in my opinion is over priced for what you get. We booked on short notice and other lodgings were fully booked. There is also a small RV type campground on the property (no dumping station however). All in all it is was very pleasant by the lake and quiet.
Beautiful View and Trail Access with Retro Vibe

Published Date: Jul, 12, 2024 Travel Date: Jul, 1, 2024 Rating: 5 Our family stayed for one night in a 2nd floor Village Inn suite with a bedroom and a sofabed in the living room. The view from the LR and balcony toward the lake was stunning. It's a short walk to the Salmon House Restaurant, where we had an excellent dinner with sunset view, and to the lake edge and the giant spruce tree. Other trails were a five-minute drive away. This was a comfortable but far from luxury accommodation. The look of the Village Inn is maybe 1960s. The AC unit in the bedroom didn't do much to cool the LR, although the box fan provided definitely helped. The people in the office/store were delightful and very helpful. All in all, a great place to stay at Lake Quinault.
