Lake Quinault Lodge sold out? How to still get a room

Lake Quinault Lodge is one of the lodges inside Olympic National Park, and it books up soon after dates open. Rooms keep coming back when other guests cancel, though, so "sold out" usually just means "not right now".

Lake Quinault Lodge, Olympic National Park

When bookings open

Summer dates go first; book as early as you can.

Deposit and cancelling

The first night is due when you book. Cancel more than 7 days out and you pay a $25 fee; inside 7 days you lose the deposit.

Season

Check the lodge's dates for your trip.

Book direct

Olympic National Park Lodges (Aramark) runs the lodge. Book there rather than through a third-party site, whose terms can differ.

How to catch a cancellation

  1. Check at the refund deadline. Look hardest about 7 days before your dates. That's the refund cutoff, so guests whose plans changed cancel just before it, and those rooms go straight back on sale.
  2. Check twice a day, every day. Rooms often come back one night at a time and go quickly.
  3. Grab part of your stay. If one night opens, book it and keep looking for the others. Adding a night to a booking you already hold is often easier than finding a whole stay at once.
  4. Say yes to more room types. Lake Quinault Lodge has several room types, including Lakeside Rooms; Fireplace Rooms; and Boat House Rooms. The less popular ones come back more often.
  5. Be ready to pay right away. Have the deposit card at hand; a room you hesitate on goes to the next person refreshing.
  6. Keep a backup. Hold a refundable room outside the park, or at another lodge nearby, and cancel it if your first choice comes through.
