I went with my husband for a two night stay at Skoki staying in Fossil room. The journey there was very special despite being challenging at times but wow the scenery was unbelievable, it took us around 5 hours at a slower pace due to an injury. ||When we arrived at Skoki lodge we had the warmest of welcomes from the entire team on duty, with the reward of a wonderful charcuterie board which we enjoyed with a nice glass of wine. The room was beautiful with a fabulous Mountain View ( well we were rather surrounded by them) and although the bed was very high it was super comfy. It was a very special experience to meet and chat with other guests before dinner - which was incredible- all the food was absolutely delicious. The team were all so friendly, efficient and so helpful. Eden was absolutely lovely and Maggie great along with everyone else - all super attentive without being intrusive. Daniel was unbelievable and so very wonderful with a warm embracing personality and also incredibly talented playing a concert for us on our last night, enjoyed by all the guests.|I must also mention how brilliant Alex was and again what a talent as she had the entire table completely captivated with her incredible story telling - a poem of her trip back in to get ready for Skoki reopening…….. you could have heard a pin drop with the silence of everyone listening. I would love to hear it again!||So thank you all Team Skoki for the most amazing trip ever! It will stay in my heart and memories forever- you are a very special team...
Read moreWe just returned from three nights at Skoki in the Honeymoon Cabin and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Ed, Vanessa, Chef Hannah and the rest of the staff ensure you have anything you need, including great information and tips to get you everywhere you need to go.||We took the shuttle to Temple Day Lodge (make sure you do, that road is otherwise not enjoyable), and were at the lodge by 1:30. Tea (delicious charcuterie) is served from 2-4, dinner is at 6:45. They have beer, wine, G&Ts, and a whisky cockail for purchase as well.||Each morning at 7:15, a thermos of hot water is brought to your room for washing, this also serves as a gentle wake up call to make sure you are ready for breakfast at 7:45. Packed lunches for the day are distributed at breakfast. When the meal is done, Ed or Vanessa will break out maps to discuss hiking choices for the day, make sure you stay to discuss your route with them even if you know where you are going already. They have a lot of great tips you would not otherwise know about.||We hiked up to Merlin Lake on the first day (definitely do it) and then around Skoki on the second day. We would have liked to take Packer's Pass on the way out, but there were nasty thunderstorms rolling in so we decided to stay on Deception Pass Trail. The shuttle from Temple back to the parking lot is there at 2:30, we were at Temple by 1:00 and decided to hike out, I believe it took around 40 minutes.||Again, magial spot with great staff.
