I first experienced the beauty of Lake Crescent Lodge on a
quick visit to the Olympic Peninsula of Washington. You know, one of those
weekend getaways where you try to fit it all in. The beauty of the lake and the historic lodge impressed me
and I lingered for hours, sitting in one of the wooden dock chairs and
exploring the trails around the lodge.
I wandered the lodge, looking at the details… the stone fireplace, antiques, the windows overlooking the lake and soon, the sun began to set.
The winds were still and the Lake Crescent waters reflected the surrounding
mountains and trees. Ducks quietly paddled over in search of treats. I had to
leave, but was determined to return and stay longer some time.
Historic Lake Crescent Lodge was built
in 1915 and is an ideal base camp for enjoying Olympic National Park, while
experiencing the charm of a turn-of-the-century resort.
Fall is an ideal time to plan that overnight stay on the
Olympic Peninsula. Three upcoming wine tasting dinners at Lake Crescent Lodge
are scheduled for October.
Washington Wine Dinners at Lake Crescent Lodge:
October 8, 6-8 pm - Maryhill Winery
October 15, 6-8 pm- Camaraderie Cellars
October 22, 6-8 pm - Harbinger Winery
I do need to return to this special place! |
The evenings are a fun opportunity to spend time with some
of the top wine and cider producers on the Olympic Peninsula and in the state
of Washington. Dinners are $95/person, plus tax and gratuity with a special
menu to complement the featured wines for the evening.
Advance reservations are required. Book overnight room
