에메랄드 밸리 인

The Emerald Valley Inn is a small, cute and very clean motel on Highway 101, near Lake Crescent, Olympic National Park. It has Granny’s Cafe on the grounds with pretty good food as well. Overall, a very nice place to stay. Especially liked the chickens and emus on the property.

I always prefer to stay as close to national parks, trails, etc. as possible and am used to the sorts of accommodations that provide proximity. Emerald Valley Inn may have have a few style points based on the website and photos, but I'm afraid cleanliness and maintenance are not up to par. For example, our room looked nice enough, with nicely matching decor...but there was long hair everywhere, like it hadn't been vacuumed in ages, under the covers so no one checked/changed the linens, etc. I tried to find a more comfortable place to sit outside, but the outdoor chairs were mostly all filthy. (I finally found one that was ok to sit in near the camping area.) Management makes clear you check-in yourself and do not create an impression that they are available to remedy room issues/complaints. Sadly, I would not return.
