Summer Has Arrived

August always feels a little different.


The excitement of summer has settled into its rhythm, the gardens are overflowing, and everywhere you look the Pacific Northwest is putting on its best show.


It's the month I look forward to every year because this is when our local farms are producing an incredible variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers that inspire so much of what our culinary team creates.

One of my favorite things to do is take an early morning drive through the Chimacum Valley. The farm stands are filled with tomatoes still warm from the sun, baskets of berries, fragrant herbs, and vegetables picked just hours before. It reminds me how fortunate we are to live in a place where "local" isn't just a menu description—it's part of our everyday life.


That connection between our local farmers and our kitchen is something we're proud to share with every guest who visits. Whether you're enjoying dinner on the veranda overlooking the bay, joining us for weekend brunch, or simply relaxing with a glass of Washington wine as the sun sets, you're experiencing the flavors of this remarkable region.


If you've been thinking about one more summer getaway, August is the perfect time. Spend the day hiking our trails, paddling the bay, exploring nearby farms and wineries, or simply slowing down and enjoying the view.


Before long, autumn will be knocking at the door, but for now there's still plenty of summer left to savor.


We hope you'll come spend a little of it with us.


Cheers,


Dan Ratigan

General Manager

THE INN

DONT JUST BOOK A ROOM, BOOK AN EXPERIENCE!

Your Summer Escape Starts Here


Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a golf weekend, or simply a chance to slow down and reconnect, we have a package designed just for you.


Savor the flavors of the Olympic Peninsula with our popular Dine & Unwind Package, spend the day on our beautifully maintained championship golf course with Stay & Play, or take your time with our Linger Longer package and truly settle into the pace of Port Ludlow.

Every overnight stay includes complimentary house-made s'mores by the fire and a one-hour e-bike rental—just two of the many ways to explore everything our little corner of the Pacific Northwest has to offer.


Spend the day hiking miles of scenic trails, cruising the bay by kayak or boat, wandering local farm stands, or simply relaxing on the veranda with a glass of Washington wine as the sun sets over the marina.

Whatever your perfect getaway looks like, you'll find it waiting for you at Port Ludlow Resort.


Book your August escape today and experience why so many of our guests return season after season.
