Emerald Valley Inn

Loved it!! The room was so cute and we woke up to snow it was so beautiful!!

We were so blessed to stay here! The location is gorgeous and there is nothing around except for the rooms (there are 6 total, plus a guest house) and a cafe, which wasn't open during our stay but it was the middle of winter, so we were prepared for it. We rented out the two suites, and both were awesome! The heaters worked great, the rooms were very clean, and the kitchenettes were exactly what we needed for some basic groceries. One bed was a little lumpy and sagged in the middle, but the other 3 (again, 2 suites) were comfortable and we slept well. There's a big field by the property, so I imagine during the summer or fall it would be a nice place for kids to play. There is no tv (which we appreciated, but there is wifi. It's clear that the owners take pride in their place, and we would definitely stay here again! Note: there is no person on-site to deal with, but they were very responsive to texts. They also offer housekeeping upon request, so we always had what we needed. Finally, the location is right near the edge of Olympic National Park, so it's very convenient to travel into the Lake Crescent or Elwha Valley areas, and it saves about 20 minutes on a drive to Rialto Beach or beyond compared to staying in Port Angeles proper. BUT, the city is only 20 minutes away so it's not hard to find "civilization" if needs must. Overall, definitely a great place and we recommend it!

I am so sad. I’ve stayed here before during warmer weather. This time around was not a good experience the heater in our room had two panels but only one panel worked. We had to sleep with our jackets and gloves on. The bathroom was also not the cleanest. The room also smelled damp. I really hope they invest a little to repair the small things that make the biggest difference.

Very clean, with everything we needed.

The bed is very uncomfortable with a whole in the middle.

Location and restaurant. Helpful staff.

First put in a badly moldy room for an exorbitant price.

Check-in was easy, beds were comfortable, the room was quite cold (we had to keep heater running all night), and walls were thin (but fortunately neighboring guests were quiet). Overall, it was a good value, and we'll consider staying here again.

The stay itself wasn't too bad. However, the service from the owners was lacking. I am from out of country and had asked prior to checking in for them to email me instead of texting as I wasn't sure I would be able to access my texts. They did not listen and sent the check-in instructions to my phone. It took me over 2 hours to be able to check in as I didn't have the instructions they text me, they weren't on site and I wasn't able to call or text them. When they finally responded, they told me they had texted me the instructions/door code and didn't seem to care. I also didn't see the heater in the room right away so emailed them to ask where to access heat. I never received a response.

Good

Cute room in a remodeled old motel. Good food at Granny’s Cafe next door.

The bed was too small for us and probably needs to be replaced as it seemed we rolled into the middle.

Close to our objective - recreation on Lake Crescent

Very old. No TV. No on- site personnel. No AC.
