Fodor's Expert Review Lake Quinault Lodge
345 South Shore Rd., Quinault, Washington, 98575, USA
On a lovely glacial lake in Olympic National Forest, this beautiful early-20th-century lodge complex is within walking distance of the lakeshore and hiking trails in the spectacular old-growth forest. A towering brick fireplace is the centerpiece of the great room, where antique wicker furnishings sit beneath ceiling beams painted with Native American designs. In the rooms, modern gadgets are traded in for old-fashioned comforts, such as claw-foot tubs, fireplaces, and walking sticks. Rooms in the Boathouse addition are pet-friendly. The lively bar is a good place to unwind after a day outdoors, and the restaurant serves upscale seafood entrées like grilled Pacific salmon.
