Quileute Oceanside Resort

Would not allow my certified service animal to stay in the main hotel. A violation of the ADA act. Would allow us to stay in the cold water/​pet friendly cabins. Did not stay based upon this policy.

My boyfriend and his family use to come camping here in La Push a lot when he was growing up. So for our trip here to his hometown, he wanted to take me here to show-​off the beauty of La Push. His friends made reservations for 3 days and 2 nights a few weeks before we flew up and we were all set. Driving in from Federal Way, we took the ferry to the Olympic Peninsula and then drove through Port Angeles to get to La Push. Don’t forget to make a pit-​stop at the Walmart Supercenter in Port Angeles or somewhere in Forks to stock up with groceries as the nearest place to pick up food is their general store that’s in walking distance from the cabins.
When we finally arrived, we were debating if we wanted to change our room from the 2-​bedroom deluxe cabin ($ 199/​night) to their 3-​bedroom standard cabin ($ 164) since we had a lot of people staying over and the front desk was nice enough to let us check out both cabins to see which one we liked best. The 3-​bedroom cabin was nice. It was one floor with a decent amount of space in each of the rooms, and the kitchen and living room area was pretty tiny with a balcony that leads to First Beach. We then made our way to the next cabin to inspect. The 2-​bedroom deluxe was a 2-​story cabin with bigger bedrooms (1 on the first floor and the 2^nd floor was just the other bedroom), a bigger dining room and the kitchen was probably the same size as the other cabin. The space of the 2^nd cabin we checked out had us sold.
The kitchen included a fridge/​freezer, stove, microwave, coffee maker, and all utensils and plates, bowls, pans and cups. We were cooking spaghetti one day, so we needed a bigger pot. We called the front desk and they were kind enough to deliver one to us right away. The dining room had a table for four and a cozy area where the electric fireplace stood along with a couch and coffee table. Our patio was descent size and our view of the beach and ocean was just amazing. The rooms were pretty spacious that came with a king size bed that could easily fit 3 or maybe 4 people on it. And the bathroom included a shower, bathtub, toilet and sink. The décor definitely had a Native American feel to the cabin as their walls were decorated with photographs of their tribes and their culture.
There’s a little kiosk place near the front desk that serves coffee. Prices were reasonable, but I think they close early and closed on Sundays. Their general store is about the same size as a 7 – 11 store. Surprisingly, their store has a good selection of food there. They sell hot foods along with refrigerated pizzas and of course the typical frozen foods, chips and snacks like most convenient stores sell.
I’m not sure if this place should be labeled as a resort because it doesn’t come with wifi or TV as their main intention of your stay there is to escape from the chaos of the outside world. Regardless of the use of technology, we all enjoyed ourselves and had a very relaxing weekend there.

This area has a surreal feeling and the Quileute Oceanside Resort supports the Beauty of this place. The oceanside RV spots are lovely. They offer an array of stand-​alone cabins and A-​frames and adjoining accommodations, some pet friendly. The office offers informative books, coffee, maps, tide tables, and Quileute handcrafts. The espresso stand near the office is currently open 7am — 2 pm TUES-​SAT. There is a wi-​fi room for those who really must. I found the restroom facilities clean and warm and the showers have HOT water. There is a store a short walk away for a few provisions. The River’s Edge Restaurant is a short walk in the opposite direction. You can purchase fish and smoked salmon from the local fishermen. This is a safe place. A sweet place. A special place. A magical place. A good place for girls and women to travel alone. Go learn about the Quileute people and their history.

Overall:
Such an awesome place right on the beach. It’s much worth the long drive from Seattle. For the price, it really doesn’t get better. We flew into Seattle, drove to Port Angeles for a night, then made the 1.6 hr drive from there to La Push. We stayed for three days and four nights. I highly recommend.
The Cabin:
We stayed in an A-​Frame cabin with heated water. The kitchen included a two burner hot plate (which is more than we needed), microwave, coffee maker, full fridge w/​freezer, plates, bowls, utensils, knives, spatulas, pots, pans, cups, mugs, and a sink. There was a table for four by the window, a full size bed on the first floor, and sleeping pads up in the loft. The bathroom included a toilet, sink, and shower. A nice perk was the partial view of the beach and ocean from our cabin.
The Beach:
You can obtain a beach fire permit at the main office for $ 5 and firewood for not much more.
Food:
There really aren’t any food options in La Push besides a well-​stocked general store within walking distance of the resort. We stocked up with groceries at Forks Outfitters Thriftway Food, in Forks, WA, twice during our stay (once on the way to the resort).
Second Trail Beach:
We jogged from the resort to the beach via Second Trail Beach. It’s nice trial through the forest that leads you to a beautiful beach. I have yet to see a beach as serene.
Olympic National Park:
From La Push, we drove 1.5 hrs (it takes longer than it says on Google) to the Hoh Rainforest and to Ruby Beach, on the coast. I would recommend checking out both spots.
Note: Cell service is non-​existent (at least for AT&T) and wireless internet is limited to a single computer room located in the office building. You do get cell service in Forks just 20 mins away.

Me and me Mam and the pup went here weekend before last… clean, sparse, and super amazing view. Two-​bedroom cabin, all good with the kitchen supplies. Don’t forget: NO TV! Although I was concerned about reviews on lack of cell phone service, my Sprint situation worked fine… turn your phone off though, soak up your situation and enjoy the surroundings Cliché: La Push, BABY!!!

This was a lovely place to stay. We stayed in the motel building, on the second floor. Watching the waves and the fog roll in right through the window, wonderful little balcony, long walks on the beach. We ended up cooking dinner in the kitchennette so we could enjoy our wine (there is a restaurant nearby but it is dry). It was peaceful, relaxing, and perfectly appointed. Tasteful and simple décor. Will be back.

While the views are breathtaking and the cabins are very clean our stay was soured when we left our boots out on the porch to dry and were stolen. When speaking to others staying there it seems this may unfortunately be a chronic issue. If you decide to stay here make sure you secure your belongings inside and lock your doors at night.

We wanted to visit nearby Rialto Beach because it is the only dog-​friendly (with leash only) beach on the Washington coast, and we were traveling with our pup. Quileute Oceanside Resort has some dog-​friendly cabins so we chose to stay here as it was the only dog-​friendly place we found in the area. As it turned out, the huge private beach directly in front of the resort (called «First Beach») is dog-​friendly too and had lots more sandy walking area than the driftwood-​clogged, but beautiful Rialto.
As another reviewer has said, «resort» is kind of a stretch for this place. It’s the nicest place I saw in the area that is on the water (there may be nicer, but I don’t know). «Rustic» might be a better term, and there’s nothing wrong with that. «Resort» just brings a certain picture to mind, and that is not what we found here.
There are no phones, tv, or wi-​fi, though apparently if you go to the office, wi-​fi can be accessed. In general, our experience was that there isn’t any out in that whole area though.
We stayed in one of the cabins, set back from the beach and behind a row of larger accommodations that face the beach. So no view back there, but no worries for us; we just wanted to travel with our dog.
The cabin was a small studio-​style open room with a separate bathroom (sink, toilet, shower). The main room had a woodstove that the resort stocked generously with fire-​wood (bring your own matches). There was a full-​sized refrigerator/​freezer in the kitchen area, a microwave, plates, flatware, cups/​glasses, a coffee maker with coffee packets, paper towels, dish soap, a broom & dustpan. There was also a kitchen table with four chairs. There was a standard-​size (full) bed. There was also a wall ladder leading straight up to a loft area with two twin-​sized foam floor mattresses; you need to provide bedding (sheets, sleeping bag, whatever).
Bring your own food; there isn’t really anyplace to eat out there. Well, we did eventually see one place. There is a limited supply store down the road (more like a mini-​mart for last-​minute, forgotten items than a full-​blown grocer). We shopped in Forks for food supplies and recommend doing that.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and if we found ourselves needing another doggy beach stay, we’d return.

Beautiful location. Large RV spaces. Right by the beach. Really loved staying here. Would like to stay here again.

Fantastic resort, staff, beach etc. The floor to ceiling windows in our cabin made the stay outstanding. Full view of the beach, crazy weather outside, beach combers and wild life.
Power was out at check-​in, staff didn’t know how to handle the situation very well, but in their defense, it probably doesn’t happen often and front desk agents kept upbeat, friendly service despite the stress.
We will return!

This is for RV area. $ 45 a night for a lopsided gravel parking lot. The ONLY pro is that it faced the beach. The beach was littered. The showers are gross individual caves that are $ 3 (in quarters mind you) for 6min. Total rip off after paying the damn $ 45. Now on to the worst: the FIREWORKS. They sell them all over the rez and yep you guessed it, we heard them all night being launched on the beach that I paid $ 45 to camp on. I lay there wondering if the RV would catch on fire — or worse yet, some poor sucker’s tent. Also a car kept driving in circles, shining headlights in the windows. The kids couldn’t sleep and the dogs were freaked due to heart jolting fireworks. This is a «private» beach that’s part of the resort that has a no fireworks sign. What a joke. Around 12am I drove to a turnout and slept on the side of the road.

I’ve stayed here a few times over the years, and enjoy it more and more each time! The beach side cabins are wonderful, and we loved the condo style rooms during this trip! The rooms are well updates, provide excellent kitchenettes with everything you would need to cook all meals, have high quality, comfortable furniture, and very spacious bathrooms! Also, there is a large patio or deck off of each room with beautiful views of the beach and water! I will continue staying our here every time I visit Washington, it is well worth the hike out!

It is worth the 3 – 4 hour drive from seattle to experience this place if you like hiking, walking on beaches, and solitude with great views. I would advise getting a cooler and going to the market in seattle and loading up with fresh seafood, fruits, nuts, pastries, bread before going there. Once there, there is a small grocery and 1 restaurant. After that, it is a bit of a drive to town. Get the most expensive units there, it is worth it.

We stayed in the lodge rooms in the whale building and they were perfect. Nice bed and shower, as well as a kitchenette which was perfect because we could make our own meals. The view was spectacular from our balcony which over looked the ocean. We really had a great stay!

This resort is set in the Olympic National Park area on First Beach in La Push, WA. It offers comfortable cabins and gorgeous sea views. Although expensive, and rarely ever at a discount, it is spectacular enough to pay the price.
We had been planning to go to this resort for a while but it was finally an impromptu decision just a couple of days before Memorial Day weekend when we decided to book. The online system sometimes has a minimum number of days you need to book, so I’ve always needed to call. Their office is open till 9 PM and there is a small store for some basic needs. The grocery store is also nearby for more supplies.
Luckily, we found an A-​Frame Cabin (Unit #4) that was available that accommodates pets. It is not oceanfront but the ocean is not far away, there is a small stretch that separates these cabins from the ocean front cabins that face the sea. As far as I know, the ocean view cabins do not allow pets so it’s a bummer.
The A-​Frame cabin offers a queen bed that can fit 2 people and there is an available loft space (accessible only by a ladder) that can accommodate 2 kids or even 2 adults but only bare mattresses are provided, no bedding. There is also a small kitchenette with the basic pots and pans, a sink and basic supplies, a plug in burner stove, a microwave, a coffee machine, and a refrigerator. Unit 4 had a full size refrigerator but some units have mini-​fridges. The bathroom is tiny but has a stand up shower and they provide basic toiletries. Everything was clean when we arrived at 5 PM. We were staying one night but if you stay for more nights there is no maid service. Just get fresh bedding and towels from the office if you need them.
No cell phone service except Verizon works in this area so be prepared for no service for the duration you’re there and bring good directions as your phone will stop working a few miles before you get to La Push. They have WiFi available in office but I didn’t use it.
The view here is spectacular as you’re right on First Beach. Second Beach and Third Beach are also nearby and very popular. We went on a foggy and cold day so we didn’t stay down at the beach for too long. There is a fire permit and firewood available in the office if you want to make a bonfire on the beach. It would be even more amazing in the summer as the view is breathtaking even on a foggy day.
I can’t wait to go back again, but the weather will always be a hit and miss in this area. It may be worth just taking a chance and looking for accommodation on a good weather weekend. The tents on site or tents on beach is an option too that may be more easily available.

Excellent location, well maintained, recently renovated all the older cabins. Friendly staff and locals. Surrounded by National Park Wilderness Coast on 3 sides and Marine Reserve to the west, this whole town does a great job of keeping it low-​key and rustic.
New nice wood seating for 2 – 4 on porches; most porches are covered, a few are not.
Dogs allowed in some cabins; be sure to specify or call in advance of booking.
Wood stoves in most cabins but all have baseboard electric too, not as rustic but cleaner and easier.
Local store is pretty well stocked; Forks is 12 miles inland for anything you can’t find on-​res. But try and support the locals and pick up what you can there in La Push. We usually pick up some smoked fish, it’s easy to find.
Wifi is limited to motel and its parking. Best bet — unplug and relax But it’s there if you need it.
We’ve taken to staying here several times a year, and have always had a great time.

The perfect place for rest and relaxation. We were delighted with our little a frame cabin on our arrival, but it is pretty «bare bones». We had a wood stove and they provided some firewood in a bin on the porch. Would have loved a bench or some sort of seating in the porch. We were in cabin 3 and had a full size bed which is way too small. A queen would have fit in the space then my senior husband wouldn’t have had to climb to the loft to sleep as it is treacherous and the opening is quite small. There are no linens provided for the loft area either so bring some. All the flooring is tile and very cold so slippers or throw rugs are needed. The kitchen is nicely stocked with service for 4, coffee pot, microwave and a fridge and there is a two burner hotplate provided though ours had seen better days and had a broken leg! Don’t forget to bring salt and pepper (not provided). We stayed in cabin 3 and had a full size refrigerator, the others only have a small one. We also had hot water in ours and a small stall shower that was serviceable. Towels are small and there were only two. They do not have housekeeping service either, so be aware. There is a kitchen table and 4 chairs and that’s it. We were craving a soft seat! Close proximity to the beach which is perfect. Close to grocery store and wifi room. There are plenty of electrical outlets for electronics, but no wifi other than in that room which is open 24 hrs with your cabin key. I had Verizon wireless and had no problem with texts or calls. We cooked In our cabin and there is only one restaurant nearby. The beach is lovely and very quiet and peaceful. I will be back, but will get a cabin with larger bed!

We stayed in room 103 in thunderbird. The room is spacious, clean and has a balcony. It also has a lovely kitchenette which if you plan ahead you could make a great meal. We ate at the restaurant down the road, served the purpose, but was not a foodie’s dream:) You can see the ocean from the room. It was beautiful. There’s no tv or wifi which is nice if you want to unplug. We didn’t have cell service (AT&T) either. We caught a nice view of the sunset from the beach which is steps away from the room. You’re allowed to have a campfire on the beach too. There’s a separate coffee hut that makes mochas, lattes, etc.

Staying here was an incredible experience. The service, view, beach, everything was pretty spectacular. For $ 80 a night, we stayed in a motel overlooking the Pacific Ocean just outside of La Push. My partner, whose travels have taken him to most continents, deemed it as «one of the best hotel room views» he’s ever had.
The Oceanside resort has many different areas and price ranges to stay in. You can camp on the beach, or rent a whole cottage, hot tub included. All of this overlooks a beach where you can watch locals surf and climb on beautiful mounds of driftwood.
A few tips, to echo what others has said:
+There is only wi-​fi by the main office, in the «computer room.» None in your room/​area.
+There is a very small general store next door, selling terrible Papa Murphy’s frozen pizza and random junk food. Bring your own food/​beverages.
+The walls in the motel are very, very thin. Bring your ball gag or earplugs, whichever position of noise making/​hearing you may find yourself in.
+Explore! Take the 1.5 mile trail down to Second Beach. It will be worth it.
+It is a long car ride to the ocean, 3.5 hours. Stop in Port Townsend of Lake Crescent and make a day of it. The drive over there, especially in the fall, was half the trip and was magical as well.
Book now! Weekends on non-​rainy months go quick. There are huuuuge deals they offer visiting off-​season, where you can see pretty terrific ocean storms from your deck. Definitely something to consider.

After a long day of hiking and dozing off around 9:30 pm there is absolutely no way it wouldn’t scare the heck out of a kid, a dog or ANYONE to hear the LOUD booming of firecrackers on the beach.
I’m not sure if I want them to ban fireworks or just put up a sign or have a warning when you book… SOMETHING.
Both nights we were exhausted after long days of hiking and it was just too jarring to be woken up by the fireworks.
Also, there was a special multi-​tribal paddling event happening (kind of awesome) so that may have made the fireworks more plentiful.
ALL THAT BEING SAID…
…this place is amazing and everyone should come here. I can’t wait to go in the winter for storm watching. We stayed in the fancy shmancy expensive luxury cabin #24 and I would 100% recommend it. It would be a good place for a honeymoon, if you don’t mind cooking on your honeymoon. Jet tub, indoor propane fireplace, full kitchen, dishwasher, ocean sounds. Depending on the type of room you rent, this can be a pretty fancy shmancy romancey place.
