It might be hard to believe, but the Sol Duc Hot Springs resort in Olympic National Park is enjoying its 100th season this summer, and that means deals for you.

The resort, which opened for the season at the end of March, will have a birthday party of sorts during the weekend of May 5-6.
 
“Sol Duc Hot Springs has been the northwest’s premier natural hot spring destination for the past century,” says Amanda Lovelady, district manager for ARAMARK Parks and Destinations, Olympic Peninsula. “The resort is deeply tied to the history of this area, and we hope to share that story with locals and our visitors.”

The birthday celebration will be hosted by the Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort, the National Park Service, and the Clallam County Historical Society. Throughout the day there will be food, entertainment and a special look at the hot springs’ history.  The celebration will include an original Stanley Steamer Mountain Wagon that early visitors rode the last part of their two-day journey from Seattle to visit the hot springs.

Often touted as a ‘natural remedy,’ the hot springs at Sol Duc have long been a source of relaxation and recuperation from life’s stresses. Located on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State, visitors have traveled from around the world to experience this natural wonder since the first Sol Duc hotel opened in 1912.  

Today, visitors can indulge in one of three mineral hot spring soaking pools and one freshwater pool, with temperatures ranging from 85 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit, healing massages and relaxing hikes on the variety of trails in the lush mountains.

To celebrate the 100th Anniversary, Sol Duc Hot Springs is offering a $100 rate for Sunday - Thursday stays for the month of May.  Based on promotional availability, blackout dates may apply.  There is a $20 upgrade for kitchen-cabins.
