Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort Campground

We didn’t stay in the resort. Sol Duc Hot Springs open to visitors. So the rate is for the hot spring only. They have three hot spring pools besides a regular swimming pool. We went there during family summer vacation. We had a good time there together.

I only enjoy the hot springs, although the last sesion, the water was barely warm and it was awful. No discounts were given. I would be super upset if I got there and the water was barely warm. We were heading out and this was during our last sesion. The shower water was barely worn. Everyone was cold and miserable! The room is decent, somewhat clean. Not visibly dirty but there was a long spiderweb from our light to the ceiling. I have been there several times so came prepared. The cabins are super expensive with little camodities. Clean bed, table, Basics line bathroom and running water with soap. And a keureg. Not even a microwave. Did not eat at the restaurant, food is decent but everything is pricey. Ok service, cannot complain about anything specific except for the lukewarm water, but nothing great t
For their prices. It is a beautiful nature place though and I enjoy it, so go back about once a year or so.

I only used the hot springs, but there isn't anywhere to leave a separate review about it. It was perfect after a day of hiking in October when it was still cold and raining outside because I didn't get overheated. Showers/restrooms were fairly clean, there was a lot of foot traffic so I don't expect 100% especially with the government shut down happening I'm sure that affects their staff. However, the staff working the desk were friendly and explained the process to me (easy: shower before, go during your allotted time frame). Be sure to remove any jewelry you don't want tarnished (they warned me too), hot springs have high sulfur content which is what will turn your jewelry black/blue.

We had a delightful overnight at Sol Duc Lodge. We soaked just after we arrived and then again after check out. The rooms were simple, but cozy. It had everything necessary for comfort — a soft bed, ample towels, in-room coffee, warm lighting, and the quiet stillness that only comes from being far off the beaten path. The Lodge has a decent restaurant, but with limited hours, so pay heed! We packed up after breakfast and walked over to the trailhead to hike up to Mink Lake. It was a perfect excursion after enjoying the hot springs and a quick lap in the cold plunge pool. Ideally I think one might want to stay two nights to get more time in the pools.

We had a wonderful time at Sol Duc Hot Springs! In our opinion, some of the best hiking on the Olympic Peninsula is right here — we hiked up to Mink Lake this time and it was another great trip. The hot springs are always a treat after a good hike.

For the price of the room, we felt it could have been a little cleaner, but overall the experience was still very enjoyable. If you want to avoid the crowds, definitely go to the earliest soaking session they offer — it makes all the difference!
