Rustic, but wonderful during the storm--great sleep! Struggled a bit with the fire and the shower, but host came to help. Off-grid, if that's your vibe. Quirky and fun. Great location for exploring the Hoh area.
Appreciated having the kitchen. So enjoyed the chanterelles and smoked salmon we purchased in the âJam Shack.â Delicious!The location was great for visits to Ruby Beach and the Hoh Rain Forest. Loved Dianeâs creativity in her work on the chaletâup cycled materials used including the mosaic tile work in the bathroom & the fabulous wood stove made from water main pipe. The chalet was indeed cozyâthank you Diane. Quintessential PNW stay
This was a round of firsts for my husband and I. First time using VRBO, first time away in Washington, first visit to the area. The chalet was exactly as stated in the listing. It was really cute and peaceful. The perfect little getaway for the weekend. Good location to a lot of sights. We came for the beaches, and it was a nice short drive. Diane was a great host and very helpful. She did great with the chalet. Honestly, the bathroom floor was probably my favorite part of the entire place.
We had a lovely stay. The cabin had a lot of special touches that were charming.The location was great.Would recommend if you are looking for a one of a kind experience.
This is a unique property and one of the few available in this area with easy access to Olympics hiking trails. I salute the owner for her work to create this cabin using recycled, repurposed and natural items. The use of solar and wood-fired heating are so suitable for this natural oasis. The on-demand water heater was a surprisingly modern element. We appreciated the huge dispenser of bottled spring water. Owner Dianne greeted us upon arrival and even offered to share a salmon caught by la local tribal fisherman.
Charming property--very nice proprieter. . .(sp?). . .comfortable little house w full kitchen. Very near Ruby Beach so we could go watch the sunset on that lovely beach. . .A plus for me was there were two dogs and two cats on the property but not near our rental hut. But I could go visit them. . .Be aware the spiral stairs to second floor are not for everyone but the two bedrooms on second floor were cozy and with great lighting for reading. Altogether a charming stay.
Once upstairs, bedrooms roomy and comfortable. Lovely reclaimed wood countertops and base. A bit dark inside for old eyes and shower temperature a bit difficult to control. Great location to Ruby beach and Hoh rainforest.
Adorable small house, quaint like a hobbit house, reflecting host Dianeâs creativity and innovation. The stairs are steep and small and curve which may be an issue for those with mobility issues. The gardens are magazine worthy and beautiful surrounding the house with the lovely sound of a small pond with koi (or large goldfish?). Diane is an ideal host - friendly and helpful. Thank you for a memorable stay!
Absolutely fabulous!! Diane is a wonderful host! She has put lots of love & work into making the HOH CHALET a cozy home and beautiful yard. Everything was perfect! Plus itâs very close to the beaches, Hoh rainforest & Forks! Highly recommend!
Death trap! Driving up, this home appears to be in a junkyard. The first thing we noticed upon walking in was a strong smell of mold and cigarettes. The lights looked to be DIY, daisy-chained across the ceiling with electrical wires exposed. That's a major fire and electrocution risk. The spiral stairs were perilously narrow with a loose hand rail, so add in a fall risk. The master bed was right in front of a sliding glass door to a porch with no curtains or blinds. No privacy. This whole house felt like a DIY project, which was especially scary knowing it had exposed wires and a propane tank. The house was unlocked with open windows when we got there, with quite a few doors and hiding places for a human or critter. We were terrified to stay here, and we left after about a few minutes for the nearest hotel. The host did come out to greet us politely, but stood between us and our child so there was no way we were going to confront her there. No response from the host when we requested a refund.
Diana took care of all the details to make sure we have a comfortable stay. We share plans ti prepare a barbecue and everything was set already at our arrive. Cabin is super cute and well maintain. Everything was clean and ready to use. We stay only one nigh during an atmospheric river storm, no water, internet and phone signal was available. We do have power as tge cabin has solar panels. Overall we enjoy the adventure. We will came back for sure.
We had a lovely stay at Hoh Chalet. What a delightful experience Diane has created here.....We would consider booking this again, and certainly recommending it to friends and family who would like to have a perfect location to visit the Olympic National Park, forest and beaches. 5-star!!!!
The chalet was idyllic and exactly as described in the listing. My family and I appreciated the host's communication, guidance, and welcome.The location is lovely. The chalet is warm and inviting. Wish I could have stayed longer!
