This was our fifth time staying at this little roadside stop. If you’re a light sleeper, bring earplugs because it is right on the road. But we always find it very comfortable. The staff is always amazing. And the whole area is loaded with little towns. Excellent antiquing.

A fabulous little resort!

I really loved this place. The room was big, super clean, and inviting. The bed was really comfortable. The shower (always a quality test for me) was large and water flow was great. The room had a lovely little balcony facing a stretch of the Hood Canal, which made for a beautiful setting. We called to say we'd be arriving a little late, and the proprietor kindly made sure to set up our door code ahead of time so we could get into our room in the absence of anyone at the desk. All of this at a really great price! We were staying only one night, but I'll definitely go back for a more extended stay at some point.

After a long day of travel, we were greeted by our host. He showed us to our room, which was clean and cozy. He offered suggestions for a good meal nearby. We slept well and enjoyed a pleasant shower in the morning. Refreshed, we went on our way to join our family along the hood Canal.
