Find Your Place

on the Hood

For generations Hood Canal has been the getaway destination of Seattle and Portland families, perching summer cabins on the banks of the Canal or high in the Olympics.

While much has changed in the big cities, the tide still comes in an out on the Hood and the pace slows down as you meander along Hwy 101 embracing the curves of the Canal. Check out these great lodging options and find your place on Hood Canal.
