Slow Down & Rejuvenate! Hot Tub, Sauna & Trails at the Olympic Foothills Lodge

Olympic Foothills Lodge — A Tranquil Mountain Retreat for Families, Friends & Nature Lovers



Escape to the peaceful embrace of Olympic Foothills Lodge, a custom-crafted, two-story bungalow nestled among towering evergreens in the scenic foothills of the Olympic Mountains. Just outside of Port Angeles, Washington, and minutes from Olympic National Park, this spacious retreat offers a perfect blend of rustic charm, modern comfort, and outdoor adventure.



Whether you’re planning a multi-family vacation, a nature-focused getaway with friends, or a quiet retreat to unwind and recharge, Olympic Foothills Lodge is your serene sanctuary on the Olympic Peninsula.



The Lodge: Spacious, Cozy, and Perfect for Groups


With accommodations for up to 16 guests, the Lodge features 4 well-appointed bedrooms, a large loft, and 5 full bathrooms—including one with a traditional hot rock sauna. The master suite is located on the main floor, providing added privacy and convenience. Upstairs, the bedrooms and loft offer flexible sleeping arrangements for families and groups of all sizes.



This is not just a place to sleep—it's a space designed to gather, relax, and reconnect.



Gourmet Kitchen & Dining Spaces


The gourmet kitchen is fully stocked and ready for everything from pancake breakfasts to multi-course dinners. With high-end appliances, generous counter space, and cookware galore, it’s a joy for home chefs.


Enjoy meals at the large indoor dining table for ten, or take it outdoors to the wrap-around covered porch, complete with a gas BBQ grill and cozy seating area—perfect for morning coffee or sunset dinners.



Unplug, Slow Down, and Reconnect


The lodge is intentionally designed without TVs, encouraging guests to disconnect from screens and tune into nature, creativity, and each other. Instead, you'll find a library stocked with books, a game table for cards and board games, and a baby grand piano in the parlor for spontaneous music and reflection.


With free WiFi throughout the home, you can still stay connected when needed—but we highly recommend taking a break from the buzz.



On-Site Amenities to Relax, Rejuvenate & Reconnect



  • Private Outdoor Hot Tub – Soak under the stars while surrounded by forest and mountain views.

  • Hot Rock Sauna – Melt stress away in this private spa-style retreat.

  • Nature Trails On-Site – Take peaceful walks through the wooded acreage, where birdsong and fresh pine air greet you at every turn.

  • Fire Pit – Gather with your group for s’mores, stargazing, or quiet conversations. (Check current Clallam County burn bans https://www.clallamcountywa.gov/884/Burning-Restrictions)

  • Yard Games – Enjoy badminton, cornhole, and more—perfect for casual afternoons outdoors.

Highly recommend this wonderful place!

We loved the abundant space, the wood burning stove, the piano, the badminton and other outdoor games, wood chopping, the backyard trails, the hot tub, the outdoor fire pit and bbq and the nicely appointed kitchen. It was a great place for our three generation family vacation to Olympic Natl Park and Victoria BC.

This is our second time visiting The Lodge and we were so happy to be back! Love the induction cooktop and well-stocked kitchen, enjoyed the firepit and s'mores, the hot tub and sauna, and sightseeing nearby. It is a fantastic place for family gatherings and we hope to return again.

Absolutely Perfect

We can’t say enough good things about the property and owners. We were contacted ahead of time with information on what was available at the house and where we should shop for groceries on our way in. Everything is wonderfully organized and the house is furnished with everything you would ever need. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home in a serene location!

Stayed for three nights for a family reunion. There were 16 of us. The house is beautiful, and has an exceptional kitchen! We enjoyed the fire pit and backyard for games. It was quiet and peaceful. Lots of birds in the morning and owls at night! The hot tub and sauna were a big hit. I live in Port Angeles so know the area well, but it was a treat to stay at this beautiful getaway, which is an easy launch for many things to explore on the OP. Would stay again!

Thanksgiving eve spent well

Perfect home in the woods to disconnect and detangle from the internet world! We spent the Thanksgiving week with large family gathering, cooked food, hiked trails and explored beauty of Olympic National Forest. We had an unexpected visitor while warming up on backyard hot tub though! Master chief Larion, a friendly dog from far neighborhood was hanging around the property for a while, but the children were slightly spooked by the big sized dog interrupting soccer play! Steve helped bringing in another neighbor to help put the lost dog in garage however it was soon gone and learned he’s a frequent visitor from neighbors quarter mile away. Other than that we enjoyed the stay in this beautifully updated home and would love to come back.

Family stay in PortAngeles

This was an amazing place to stay, and we were all impressed with how well organized everything was with the multitude of labels and directions. You name it, and the host had thought of it! Earplugs in every bedside table, etc. Exploring the “magic” forest in the back yard, finding banana slugs, hiking in Olympic National Park, bathing in the hot tub, cooking s’mores and hot dogs over an open fire, basking in the sauna, the spaciousness, comfortable sleeping, are just a few of the wonderful aspects of OLF Lodge. It was so well equipped for family members of all ages! Absolutely wonderful place!

We had such a wonderful stay. The house was the best stocked rental I have every stayed in. There were tons of kitchen gadgets and appliances and really everything that we needed. There were clear instructions about the house everywhere. It was a beautiful home and it was the perfect distance from town without being too far. We definitely felt like we were secluded out in the woods. I can't recommend this this property highly enough!

Wonderful Olympic Retreat

For a visit to the Olympic Peninsula this could not have been better. Well maintained and stocked house that had everything that we needed and more. Loved the sauna, firepit and hot tub and the little trails down into the woods. The layout of the home was very nice with 3 BRs upstairs and the master BR downstairs. Was perfect for our family of 5. Feels remote but you are only 10 minutes from stores/services etc. Easy access to the Park entrance to Hurricane Ridge and especially to the Deer Park entrance. Don't let the 8-mile dirt road deter you, it is spectacular up there! Thanks - we will be back.

Family Friendly Home in Wonderful Location

The fourteen of us, ranging from 75 to 9 years of age, loved staying at this comfortable and well appointed home. Everything was easy to find and use, thanks to the owner's guides and instructions. The five grandkids spent their evenings exploring the grounds and playing games. The adults were happy to relax on the deck. Beds were comfortable and the well equipped and roomy kitchen made it easy to prepare meals. The house was very clean. We especially loved the location - quiet and remote, yet within easy access to the northern parts of the Olympic peninsula and Olympic National Park, our primary reason for coming to Washington. We would definitely stay there again.

Family Fun

This is the second time our family stayed at the lodge. Plenty of bathrooms. The wonderful sauna. The little kids love to hike the trails around the house. We all love to jog and walk the road out to the highway. So close to all the Olympic park trails as well as beaches. We use the fire pit for s’mores and conversation. Big comfortable table for all our family meals. Such a well appointed and easy to use kitchen. Corn hole and running around the big yard. Non stop fun for our family.
