"Westmost" Bed & Breakfast in the lower 48 - on ten acres of coastal rainforest west of Forks. This is the place for a quiet getaway. We strive to be all a lodge should be - wood, stone, a "great room" with a massive stone fireplace, and more. Nights in our forest are silent except for the distant rush of the Sol Duc river and occasional interruptions by coyotes or owls.
Rialto Beach, one of the most readily-accessible, and, in our opinion, the finest of the "frontcountry" Olympic National Park wild beaches, is just 3 miles away. No shipping, no jets, and most cell phones will be useless. An undisturbed, rugged coast at its best. From our door, it's about 40 miles to the Hoh Rainforest, 45 miles to Sol Duc Hot Springs, and 60 miles to either Lake Ozette or Neah Bay/Cape Flattery/Shi Shi Beach.
