Entering The Lodge with its beautiful portico entrance with the waterfall at your back is a lovely experience, but it is the timeless beauty of the Olympic Room, the social hub and centerpiece of “living at the Lodge” that sets this community apart from other retirement centers. This dining room is warm and comfortable with tall native timbers and huge picture windows that look out at the Olympic Mountains.
The residents and guests of The Lodge order from a restaurant-style menu and are served table side by experienced waitstaff. The Olympic Room is a unique dining venue and with a reservation 24 hours in advance, diners from the local community are welcome. It has become a restaurant of choice for that special evening out. It’s no wonder—with a dinner menu that includes everything from pastas, stir-fries, and garlic prawns to specially prepared, filet mignon and a daily special, it is a truly unique experience. Recent daily specials have included Prime Rib, Lamb, and crab cakes. One of the local newspapers recently named the salad bar the best on the Peninsula.
In addition to the main courses mentioned, all of the soups are made in-house. The beef is all-natural beef and the produce is locally sourced when available. Breakfast and lunch are menu service with daily specials, and breakfast includes special-order omelets, eggs to order, bacon, sausage, French toast, and more. Lunch service includes the famous Lodge Reuben, tuna melts, chicken sandwiches, and burgers including a garden burger. The Lodge kitchen can also accommodate a vegetarian diet. Snacks, juices, fresh fruits, coffee, tea, and baked goods are also available.
