We camped for seven days in Olympic and stayed at Lake Crescent Lodge for two nights to give ourselves a break. Lake Crescent was gorgeous. Watching the sun set over the mountains and weather patterns was breathtaking. 

Unfortunately both days we were there the water was too choppy to kayak or be out on the water. The wind was almost unbearable any time we were outside. This was the middle of July, so I can't really imagine making a fall trip here!

Because of COVID, dining was take out. Even so, our meals were very good and the prices were pretty reasonable for Washington.

We stayed in the Storm King rooms. Everything about it was great...working shower (albeit a bit short, tall people watch out), bathroom with a real door and fan, nice bed and a balcony! It was such a welcome reprieve after camping, really felt luxurious. The ONLY con however...the walls are absolutely paper thin. We could hear everything our neighbors said and did. Made it very hard to sleep. 

I don't know if I would make this my destination for a trip to the peninsula, but as a stopping point it was perfect.
