About this property
Elk Creek Retreat by Olympic Coast Rentals
Come create lasting memories of the Olympic Coast at Elk Creek Retreat. This 3-bed 2-bath single-level house is the perfect getaway for those looking to explore the Olympic Peninsula! We feature an ideal location just east of the City of Forks, close to beaches, with WiFi, washer and dryer, & three smart TVs! Our aim is to provide everything you’ll need to create a home away from home!
Spend your days discovering the natural beauty of the area before heading back to Elk Creek Retreat. With 1200 sq ft, you’ll have plenty of room to move about without losing that quaint, cozy atmosphere when its time to cuddle up on the couches next to the wood fireplace. House is on the backside of a family-friendly loop community. It sits on just under ⁄ acre and borders state forest (trees, trees and more trees!) and just a short walk away is an idyllic trail that borders Elk Creek.
Prepare family meals in the full kitchen or grill outside on the gas BBQ (propane tank level is not monitored so let us know if it is getting low) and sit down for dinner at the dining table with space for 6. The well-equipped kitchen features a full suite of appliances. A separate coffee bar area allows you to brew up a pot of drip coffee and warm up water in the electric kettle.
When it's time to turn in, you've got three bedrooms to choose from, two with king beds and one with a queen bed. Closets have shelving and hangers. The ensuite bathroom features a walk in shower and the hall bathroom is set up with a tub/shower combo. At the side entrance/mud room you will find a washing machine and dryer.
We try and stock the house with all the basics including linens, towels, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, toilet paper, hair dryer, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, foil, plastic wrap, Ziplocs, garbage bags, Folgers coffee, tea, sugar, creamer, hot cocoa, and oatmeal. The house also has some games, children toys, and a pack n play.
You will be renting the whole house and yard. The garage will not be available, but there is plenty of parking in the driveway.
Limited cell phone coverage at the house, but wireless Internet is provided (turn on wifi calling). We are happy to have Starlink Satellite Internet with speeds up to 150 mbps.
This is a pet-free, smoke-free home.
Some nearby attractions are:
• Hoh Rain Forest (55 min to visitor center)
• Scenic beaches (closest are near La Push (First, Second & Third Beach and Rialto Beach – 28 min)
• Hiking trails (so many to choose from closest is 5 min walk to trailhead – Elk Creek Conservation Trail)
• Rivers (Hoh, Bogachiel, Calawah, Sol Duc, Quillayute)
• Sol Duc Hot Springs (60 min)
• Northwest Coast/Strait of Juan de Fuca (45 min)
• Lake Crescent (45 min)
• Olympic National Park
• Downtown Forks (Thriftway grocery store & restaurants – 8 min)
• Twilight sights/tour (Inquire at Visitor Center – 8 min)
• and so much more!

About the host
Hosted by Ravae O'Leary
We (Aaron, Ravae and Maeley) are lucky to get to enjoy Forks six-months out of the year and are excited to share our duplex in the beautiful Olympic Peninsula with you. When we are not in Forks we are traveling for our fishing guide business, Angler’s Obsession (to Klickitat, WA and Key Largo, FL). Besides his love for fishing, Aaron is also a pretty a good photographer and you will find his photographs throughout the house. Ravae loves to cook so the kitchen is equipped with all the necessities to make home cooked meals.
Why they chose this property
Forks is such a majestic place. We were drawn here by the fish (Wild Winter Steelhead) and fell in love with the area and community. Settling down was in our mindset when we purchased the home, but alas we have decided to continue traveling.
What makes this property unique
There is so much to see and do if you love the outdoors and our home is the perfect location for it all! Although it is only a few miles from town the property border DNR (public forest land) and is at the back of a loop community.
