4. Alderbrook Resort & Spa
My family loves to head to Alderbrook Resort & Spa which sits on the south shore of Hood Canal, a long, glacier-carved fjord that runs parallel to Puget Sound and is backdropped by dramatic Olympic peaks. For generations, families have come to these shores to shuck oysters, paddle the brackish water, roast marshmallows and relax away sunny summer days.
The once-weathered gray inn has been completely transformed into a grand lodge with swanky amenities, such as an on-site spa and a high-end restaurant that specializes in seasonal Northwest cuisine. Kids will love fishing from the dock, cruising around in a kayak or pedal boat, or just kicking a soccer ball on the expansive green lawn.
