Robin Hood Village Resort, Union
The setting: Set in a forested nook along Hood Canal on the eastern edge of the Olympic Peninsula, the historic Robin Hood Village Resort was built by Don Beckman, the Hollywood set designer for the original Robin Hood movie, “The Adventures of Robin Hood.” The resort has been providing a laid-back nearby getaway for Puget Sounders since 1934.
Rental info: Book one of 16 unique cottages, each one sleeping between two and nine guests. The cottages feature a quirky, old-school vibe. All are equipped with kitchens; many have private hot tubs and firepits. A couple of eateries are within walking distance, including the dining room at nearby Alderbrook Resort.
Nearby things to do: Hood Canal offers a trove of seafood for harvesting; there’s crabbing, clamming, oyster picking and fishing. If you paddle the canal on a kayak, you’re very likely to spy a playful splashing seal or a soaring bald eagle overhead; orcas are occasional visitors, too!
