What guests think

At Rain Forest Resort Village, guests repeatedly praise the stunning Lake Quinault setting, easy access to rainforest trails, and friendly, helpful staff, while many note dated, basic accommodations with occasional musty odors, worn carpets, and other age-related maintenance issues.

Many rooms and cabins offer lake views, and some feature fireplaces or jetted tubs, but TVs are small with limited channels, Wi-Fi is often slow or unstable, and in-room fridges or microwaves are frequently not provided. The Salmon House restaurant across the road is widely liked for dinner, yet breakfast and lunch options are limited and the store/office keeps set hours. Stays feel peaceful and remote, though a few guests felt prices were high for the age and upkeep. Expect rustic, scenic simplicity rather than modern resort polish.

Great location by Quinault Lake. There is a general store, post office, and laundromat next door and a restaurant across the road. There is free coffee and tea from the general store for guests. We loved the huge window views from our living room. It was our favorite place. Turn on the heater by the window and you get a cozy viewing place.

Amazing location, the Salmon House restaurant is awesome but only open 4pm -9pm, the gift shop/front desk is great and is open 9am-9pm. No lobby and no lounge area outside your room. No breakfast or lunch options but the gift shop has food options but not all rooms have kitchens. Great for 2 to 3 night stays.

Room was clean with a great view of the lake. The staff at check in and each visit at the general store were friendly and accommodating. I will stay there again, maybe next time in one of the private cabins there or upstairs. Also loved the outdoor seating availability outside each room. Thank you!

The property has a beautiful view and a restaurant and nearby trailheads. The facility is super old and the are trying to keep it going with minimum improvements. The carpet in our room was stained and scary dirty. The bathroom was clean but old and met bare minimum. There were cobwebs on windows and There was no refrigerator. I feel we totally overpaid for what we got.

The view wasn’t worth the price. VERY dated, old, tired room. We were in a “cabin” but the vertical blinds did not close!! This faced the main road and felt very unsafe and creepy! We had to hang blankets for “some” privacy. Not very clean either. Spiders in corner, random hairs etc.

Staff was delightful (s/o Ian, so friendly) - we stayed in one of the queen beds facing towards the lake. Rooms are definitely dated & have a certain… mustiness? to them. But it’s almost befitting for the area (small, quaint town) and doesn’t detract from the stay too much. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re looking for something near the Hoh (Quinalts rainforest directly competes & is way less busy during tourist season).

The location is excellent. The inn is just across the road from the lake, and opting for a lake view room was definitely worth it, we could literally see it from the bed. The member of staff in the shop/office was lovely and very helpful. We arrived early and although we were too early to check-in they gave us a map and took the time to talk us through the best places to go and take a walk until the room was ready.

Great hotel. Spacious and unbelievable lake view. What impressed me most is how they handled the matter when my mom found out that she left her IPad in the room after we left. The hotel manager went great length to find the IPad and mailed it to us the very next day I reported the lost IPad. I cannot express how much I am grateful for it. I will definitely recommend this hotel to my friends.

As far as rooms, one room had ac and adjoining room only had fan. Rooms were dated but clean. Was frustrated they charged me extra $15 at checkin for my minor son. No meals are included so not sure why they charge extra. The office/grocery is not open til 9 so no breakfast or food options without driving so we left early for our day and no need to go back.

Paid the price of a 5 star hotel but got very little back in return. Room looks old, tired and badly in need of a major update. Rusty bathroom, small tv screen hung at an awkward angle, noisy heater… Don’t come during a holiday. Front desk forgot to include the wifi password and left early. Took a while before they responded by email. Never responded to texting and my data coverage was spotty. What good is email if I can’t get the data coverage?

Located in beautiful rain forest area. We were facing the lake and mountain and could sit inside or outside for a wonderful view. Excellent restaurant across the street. Staff was helpful and friendly. It was March so there weren't big crowds around. A trail through the woods leaves behind the property and you can do whatever loops you would like. It was a short walk to a huge Sitka Spruce tree. The nature trail a couple of miles away has spectacular big trees.
