Hoh Chalet A cozy cabin on the Olympic Peninsula

The Hoh Chalet is a cozy cabin located on the Olympic Peninsula in the Hoh River Basin. It is heated with a woodstove and has spiral stairs to get up to both bedrooms. Pictures of stairs are in additional photos in this listing.

The space
The Chalet is a small cabin, just 400 sq ft per floor. It is an independant home and is powered by solar energy. The inside is DIY finished with repurposed materials. Only the appliances are new.
This two-story cabin has 2 bedrooms upstairs with a double bed in each and a desk in the hall. The entry level has a kitchenette, bathroom, dining area and common area with a hide-a-bed in the sitting room. It is heated with a woodstove; firewood, cable TV, and Wi-Fi are provided.

Guest access
There is plenty of parking, with a carport for smaller vehicles. You are welcome to walk down the road, and tour our property. We have a berry farm and U-Pick berries starting in late June as well as a grocery garden, and a path through our wooded area. A large communal fire pit is located behind our retail shack where Hoh Made Jam, Native Hoh River Smoked Salmon, and local arts and crafts are available.
Other things to note
Access to the upper floor is via a spiral staircase. If you have small children or do not do stairs easily, this may not be for you.
Pets are allowed, but they may not be left unattended.

Unique and Wonderful Stay
The owner of this property has created an amazing cabin that is totally unique, artistic and fun! She met us upon check-in to answer questions and make sure that we knew how to work the stove, etc., and was available if we had any questions. The home has everything that you need, and it is just a short drive away from Ruby Beach, where there is a camp store where you can get supplies. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there!

The chalet is so unique and has lots of charme. Though the queen bed was a bit squeaky, all beds were comfortable and we had a good sleep. The property is beautiful and the host was very friendly. She checked in on us on the first day. The little shed shop is filled with goodies and we just had to take some jellies home. The chalet is only 7 minutes from Ruby Beach, 30 min to Forks, and about 40 from Hoh Rainforest. We had a nice stay and would recommend it. We would suggest to bring your groceries if you don’t want to make the drive to Forks. The Kalaloch Lodge restaurant is the closest one, but is on the expensive side and the food was only okay.

Cute little chalet!
Adorable little chalet just perfect for a couple day getaway. Fair warning, the stairs up to the bedrooms are steep & narrow and the only source of heat is the wood burning stove, but neither of these things took away anything from our stay! Diane was wonderful & came over to show us how to use the stove.

Bathroom was on first floor but bedrooms upstairs and tight spiral staircase made the trip up and down a little sketchy. Host was very nice and helpful. Water pressure was not good. No hot water. But location was good, close to Ruby Beach.

Charming cabin close to the action
It was nice to stay in Diane’s sustainable cabin that is close to the beaches and the Hoh rainforest. Explore the local shop on the property and mingle with the dogs / cats. Beds are a bit noisy and the hot water a bit of a challenge but beats a tent and sleeping bag! Diane was a great host and excellent communicator.

Unique, fun, funky and friendly handmade home on the Hoh.
A totally authentic and unique funky and fun stay. The owner was delightful, inviting us to pick berries from her garden and even bringing hot berry cobbler to our cabin one night. The only downside was how close it was to the highway, but then again, 5 minutes to Ruby Beach! A must for architecture students.
