Fodor's Expert Review Kalaloch Lodge

Overlooking the Pacific, Kalaloch has cozy lodge rooms with sea views and separate cabins along the bluff. The weathered clapboard cabins have a fireplace or wood stove, knotty-pine furnishings, earth-tone fabrics, and kitchenettes; the main lodge houses rustic ocean-view rooms and suites (and a few budget units without views); and wood-paneled motel-style quarters are in the Seacrest Building. A trail leads down to the driftwood-strewn beach. Rangers lead free nature walks, beach explorations, and evening programs at the adjacent campground.
