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.

Most organized rental!

Had a great multi-generational getaway with ages 10-70 at the Olympic Lodge and loved it so much. The huge yard (lots of games), fire pit, hot tub, and hiking trails were perfect for outdoor time in the evenings. The house has all the amenities you could ever want. And labeled so precisely! Would definitely recommend!

Excellent Accomodations

The house is beautiful, well maintained and exceptionally functional, especially if you have a larger family! If you have a piano player in your group, this is a perfect lodge to allow your musician to fill the house with music. The sauna is the cherry on top, so perfect after a long day hiking in Olympic National Park.

Phenomenal property and hosts

I've never stayed in a property that was so thoughtfully designed and organized for guests. The features were amazing ...plenty of places to sleep, bathrooms to spare, large gathering spaces, a hot tub and sauna.The list could go on. But what made it even better was how well it was organized. We found detailed lists of kitchen amenities and a map that told us where to find things. Directions for use of the sauna and hot tub were clear and easy to follow. When we had questions, they were answered promptly. This property deserves all the kudos it gets and more.

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!

A home away from home with gorgeous details!

This house is simply amazing. Our stay was easy and beautiful because of each and every detail at the place. The kitchen tool location guide was awesome, and we had fun racing to find items before someone read their locations aloud. We loved the history built into the home, and shared with us as visitors. We had a group of 11 and we were easily able to cook and serve meals together, play games, and sleep comfortably. Some of us chose to relax at the house while others went out to explore Dungeness Spit, and the removal of local dams - a once-in-a-lifetime chance to witness. The only thing missing was a hot tub, but we hear that there will be one someday. I've already told my friends and family about this place, and I can't wait to return! Thank you, Steve and Alice.

Amazing Mountain Getaway For a big group

I visited with ten of my friends from college. The space was not only spacious but meticulously organized, labeled, and it was a breeze finding anything we needed. The kitchen had every tool you could need for cooking and the kitchen is gorgeous. The entire place is absolutely stunning and it’s just like in the photos. The host was very kind and communicative and we felt so relaxed and at ease. It’s close enough to town that it was easy getting groceries or going out but far enough to feel like you’re surrounded by beautiful wilderness. Coming from New York I’d never seen so many stars! It’s perfect for any age and large groups. There was 11 of us and it never felt cramped. We did bring our own projector screen because there’s no TV but it’s perfect without any screens if you want to get away from them. The hot tub and sauna were so relaxing and the proximity to the national park was very convenient. Best vacation rental I’ve had so far.

Signs, signs everywhere a sign

After the one-half mile drive on a gravel road, we were pleasantly surprised by the wonderful lodge in the park-like setting. Spacious and well-equipped, the owner guides you through the process of operating and using the amenities of the home with an abundance of point-of-use signs, from labeling the hot and cold on the kitchen faucet to opening the cover on the hot tub. Guests also get to know the owner's family through photos and a trophy quilt; all are very lovely and homey touches. If you are a national geographic aficionado, there are several volumes of vintage years to thumb through and many outdoors/travel coffee table tomes. Overall, it's a great home to chill in for several days or weeks.

We had a great stay at Olympic Foothills Lodge. Great place to get together with family. The outside area was great for sitting around the fire, taking a dip in the hot tub and playing lawn games. We loved the fun trails behind the house as well. Inside the kitchen had everything we needed and was spacious for all of us to eat and hang out. Thanks for all of the detail and lovely touches. Great jumping off point to see the Olympic Peninsula.

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.

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.
