3 Best Hotels in Southeastern Washington, Washington

Comprising six airy, high-ceilinged modern cabins with stylish kitchenettes, indoor-outdoor geothermal soaking tubs, and expansive decks, this 100-acre woodland hideaway is ideal for a restorative retreat in nature—within moments of your arrival, you'll probably notice your blood pressure abating. This a cabin-rental complex rather than a hotel per se, as there's no lobby or common facilities, but that also means you'll enjoy total privacy throughout your stay. Downtown Stevenson is a 10-minute drive, and there's plenty of great hiking nearby. 

This handsome 1908 Craftsman-style bed-and-breakfast is in downtown Vancouver, a short walk from several good restaurants, bars, and shops, on a quiet street surrounded by perfectly manicured gardens. The three rooms are elegantly furnished—the more masculine Hemingway Room, with its darker palette, has a private bath. Two other lacier, floral-inspired rooms, one with a king bed and fireplace, and the other with two twins, share a bathroom and are popular with families. Proximity to Interstate 5 makes the 8-mile drive to downtown Portland a snap, and the inn is also convenient to Portland International Airport and the main route leading into the Columbia Gorge. A substantial full breakfast is included.

For a romantic, cushy getaway in the piney woods near Gifford Pinchot National Forest, book one of these luxurious rustic-chic cabins outfitted with hot tubs and separate walk-in showers, DVD players, fireplaces, sitting areas, and private porches. Set amid lush gardens and fire pits, this idyllic little retreat is handy to some of the best hiking in the Gorge, but plenty of couples simply cozy up in their cabins and breathe in the tranquil woodland air. In-cabin spa services can be arranged, and rates include full breakfast and in-cabin snack baskets.
