Alderbrook Resort & Spa
Washington

Alderbrook Resort & Spa sits on the shores of Hood Canal in Union, Washington, with the Olympic Mountains rising beyond the water. Welcoming visitors since 1913, it combines a waterfront lodge atmosphere with forest trails and a range of ways to explore the canal. Guest rooms overlook the water, courtyard or creekside grounds, with window seats and deep bathtubs among the features of selected categories. One- and two-bedroom cottages add kitchens, living areas and private patios, making them useful for families and longer stays. A saltwater swimming pool, hot tub, sauna and spa offer ways to unwind between outings. The waterfront centre provides a starting point for time on the canal, while private woodland trails invite a slower exploration of the surrounding forest. The restaurant draws on regional ingredients and serves Pacific Northwest cooking against a backdrop of Hood Canal. Coffee and pastries from The Drinkery can accompany a walk or waterside picnic, and seasonal cruises add another perspective on the landscape. The mix allows couples and families to shape a stay around both activity and rest.
