Slip away to Salish Lodge & Spa where a romantic mountain retreat awaits you. A mere 30 miles from Seattle, this elegant escape nestled in nature features all the finest amenities of a luxury hotel.
Hear the roar of Snoqualmie Falls as whitewater tumbles over granite cliffs nearly 300 feet into the emerald river canyon below. Venture down the tree-lined trail by day and let the crackling of your own wood-burning fireplace soothe you to sleep by night.
