Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We stayed for two nights to kyak Lake Cushman and hike at Staircase in the Olympic National Park. This was the perfect place to stay, it was close to that area and was comfortable to get a good night's sleep after long days. We had a view of the Hood Canal from our room where we watched some seals playing. I would definitely stay here again.

I was originally certified to Dive in 1980 in Hoodsport. Then again in 2012 received my Advanced Certification here as well with a different group. Love the town, love the people and Waterfront at Potlatch Hotel was great! Great view of the canal, clean and the people were very nice. Thank you !

We had a wonderful time with our family. The beds were super comfortable. Would’ve liked a little table to place our suitcases. And a little loud from traffic noise in the morning. Everything else was wonderful and in working order. Great value.

A beautiful location, large rooms, friendly staff. The only drawback for Inn guests is the lack of dining options in the immediate area.

Nice place right up against the water. Room is nice, even though it’s right up against the main road, it’s pretty loud, hoping traffic dies down. Other than that this is a nice place. Lady at the front desk was really nice and helpful

Beautiful views. If you get a ground floor with a patio, make sure there are not RV's in your way. Our view was initially blocked by several large RV's. The manager on duty changed us to an upstairs room-fortunately.
