    Lake Crescent Lodge in Olympic National Park was built in 1916. The lodge was originally called "Singers Tavern." In addition to the lodge, there are classic motel and cottage lodging facilities. The lodge also has dining facilities overlooking Lake Crescent. Relax in an adirondack chair, take a boat for a paddle on the lake, hike any number of trails, or simply kick back and take in all that nature has to offer in this pacific northwest treasure.
