Ultimate Olympic National Park Lodging Guide {Video}

If you are looking to stay in the park these are the best Olympic National Park Lodging options! We have stayed in every lodge in the park to make sure we can share the best information with you!

Olympic National Park Lodging

One thing to know when planning an amazing trip to the Olympic Peninsula is the top things to do in Olympic National Park are not always close to each other.

It is not uncommon for attractions/highlights to be an hour or two away from each other.

The park encompasses 922,651 acres of preserved wilderness with three distinct ecosystems: coastal, rainforest, and sub-alpine. The park is primarily contained by Highway 101, which loops around the peninsula.

When planning your lodging you may want to stay in multiple lodges and move around the park. We normally stay in 2-3 different lodges depending on how long we are planning to be in the park. 

This way you are not spending your entire trip on the road from place to place. This also gives you a chance to spend more time diving into the amazing destinations within the park. 

Olympic National Park Lodging Map

As you can see on this Olympic National Park Lodging map the lodges are spread out around the park. 

If you are looking for other Olympic National Park Hotels that are chains or more mainstream you will want to look in Port Angeles. There are a few motels in Forks, Washington right on Highway 101 also.

Port Angeles has a variety of lodging options along with a ton of restaurants. If you need to be near a city this is the place to look.

The rest of the park lodges and cabins are pretty remote to cities. Lake Crescent Lodge and the Log Cabin Resort are closest to Port Angeles and town. 

Kalaloch Lodge

Season - Year Round

Location in the park - Along Highway 101 on the Pacific Ocean.

Kalaloch Lodge is our favorite place to stay in the park! There is just something so magical about staying right next to the Pacific Ocean and Kalaloch Beach. We would happily make this our home away from home any chance we get. 

The Kalaloch Lodge has a main lodge with the gorgeous Kalaloch Suite and Becker's Suite, the Seacrest House which is a two-story hotel building, and a group campsite. 

Kalaloch Cabins

The Kalaloch Cabins are located next to the Kalaloch Lodge in Olympic National Park. You can choose from a bluff cabin overlooking the Pacific Ocean or the Kalaloch Cabins that are just back from the bluff cabins.

You do not want to judge these cabins by how weathered they look on the inside! They are absolutely gorgeous on the inside. We stayed in a 2-queen bed with a kitchen cabin and it was amazing.

These cabins are a great place to enjoy the cool Pacific Ocean breeze while relaxing next to a wood fire.

Season - Open seasonally April through January 1.

Location in the park - Next to Lake Crescent, approximately 30 minutes from Port Angeles, Washington

The views from our room at Lake Crescent Lodge was unbelievable. We looked directly out at Lake Crescent and watched the sunset from our front porch. 

Built-in 1915 as a base camp for park visitors among, the lodge’s accommodations include historic cottages, mid-century modern hotel-style lakefront rooms, and mountain rooms tucked amongst the giant fir and hemlock trees.
