Our stay at Waterfront at Potlatch was good. Mike was a big help at check in and was eager to answer our questions. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was the shampoo, conditioner and soap provided was not good at all. We got a little circle soap to use for 2 nights and it was terrible soap. They should really upgrade to the refillable pumps that most hotels are switching to. Also, the second day we were there the neighbors were so loud you could literally hear everything they were saying. Overall the stay was good and the location is amazing. If you’re thinking about using the RV sites they are great! Clean and big and right on the waterfront. We will definitely be back in our motorhome in the near future.

Convenient and Comfortable
This was a very large room, with parking right off the US-101 north of Shelton. The bed was extremely comfortable. The room had a table and two chairs plus a little area that contained the refrigerator/freezer and the microwave, which we enjoy for our after-dark dinner.

Oysterfest weekend!
The setup of the room was great and the center was out the back overlooking the water! While there were no frills the property was clean and the space open. It was also a very comfortable sleeping setup!
