Robin Hood Village Resort

Our stay was great and the staff & owner were super friendly and accommodating. Originally had a room without a hot tub, at dinner our server was amazing and took care of upgrading us to a room with a hot tub. Food was delicious! Even though the menu didn’t have any gluten free options the server and cook worked with me to make sure I was able to enjoy a gluten free meal. Loved it and will definitely be returning!

Spent the weekend here with hubby for our anniversary. We stayed in Cabin 9. SUCH a cute tiny cabin! We were a bit surprised when we got there, as we thought that the cabins would be further apart in the wooded areas, but I was glad of it later. It was in the low 20’s at night and quite slick out, so walking further to go to get food and drinks wouldn’t have been great in the darker areas. The staff were friendly and great. We were a little bummed that the hot tub was only at 90 when we went to use it. And yes, we turned it up earlier in the day and then left to eat. When we called, however, they sent out someone immediately. He couldn’t really do much to help, but was very sympathetic and let us know that because of the weather, the tubs didn’t always warm up well and they’d check on it again in the day time. By the next morning it was 104 and usable, so it just needed more time. Next time we go in winter we’ll call ahead and ask them to turn up the tub way early! :D We definitely had a great weekend and I plan to be back. I want to check it out in the summer now and maybe bring the kids. :)

Pros: nice getaway not for away from home. Stocked with cooking utensils, flat screen TV, and hot tub. Plenty of towels!
CONS: hot tub was 104* when we got there, we got there around 8pm and per the website, you check-​in through the bar. We got checked in and had got inside our cabin to find the top part of our cabin was locked (we paid for it!!) we went back to the bar to let them know we needed it unlocked and they had NO IDEA what to do. They said they would contact the owners to figure it out. We had to wait over an hour till we decided to go back and ask what was going on. From there we probably waited 30 more minutes till someone came with keys to unlock the top part.

The cottage was nicely decorated with an eclectic collection of little dust collectors. Everything was in good working order. A bit more attention could be used in the comfort of the bed. It was not at all comfortable. The restaurant does a good burger and a good steak. It is disappointing that they do not serve breakfast. When they say private hot tub, don’t believe them. Ours was facing the parking lot and the privacy left a lot to be desired. A simple bamboo curtain would have made all the difference. Also, the check-​in clerk directed us to the wrong hot tub. We were relaxing until the people whose hot tub we were in popped by to let us know… rather embarrassing. All in all, this is recommended for a family outing considering the available activities. I would not recommend it for a romantic getaway.

We really liked this property! It was mine and my husbands 1^st anniversary and we wanted to try something different and get away.
We had cottage #2 and it’s the original cottage that was built in the 1920s. So it’s old but it’s sweet and cozy.
The only negative thing I have to say about this cottage is is that it’s small. Which for me it would be ok but my husband is 6’5 and he could barely shower.
The «private» hot tub was next to the cottage and it being in the front and right across from the restaurant and pub it’s not too private. So you walk out of the front door and walk to the hot tub (we thought there was like a back door and it would be behind the cottage). Make sure you have them put hot water in there to make it hotter because at night it gets chilly and you want that water to be hot. Also, there was 2 huge spiders and webs and we asked them if we could have spray to take care of them and the lady that works there literally smashed them with her hands! We were shocked! The bed was comfy.
The restaurant was pretty good. Good portions and a little more expensive but it’s worth it. Make sure you try it!
We would definitely come back we would like to try a different cottage though but this was fun!

A great get away, everything was perfect, I don’t have one bad thing to say about the resort. I will be back when the weather is much warmer.

What a romantic getaway. We just came here for our honeymoon. We stayed in cottage 1 which was lovely, very clean with a super comfy bed. We both slept great. The cottage had its own hot tub which was very nice and we used the kayaks across the road. I would love to come back for an anniversary.
Now the bad… Everything was great until I tried to take a shower early afternoon after kayaking and the water went down to a drizzle. I waited for ten minutes and tried again, there wasn’t much I could do but wait since I had mud all over my legs and feet. The water pressure didn’t come back so my husband headed to the pub which is where you check in and get extra towels and such, pub was closed. Okay, so we will call. There is no phone in the room. We used our cell, got no answer. Finally my husband caught a housekeeper who knew what the problem was. She had turned on the sprinklers which stole all of the water pressure from the cottage. Wth. A good think to note too is that no water in the cottage can be used while you shower unless you want an ice cold shower. In my opinion customer service was lacking and when paying $ 178 a night I expect hot water and water pressure. I so think a garden hose out front would be nice to wash the mud off my feet after I’ve been in hood canal.

LOVED LOVED LOVED our weekend getaway! We stayed in 9, but will stay in 8 next time for sure. A little more room. Hiking trails were fun. The free kayaks weren’t fancy, but we were able to enjoy the water for a few hours. Even saw some seals :) It was kind of like camping with a nice bed and a working kitchen. Whoever complains about this place must be uptight. Great food also!

Really enjoyed our stay very peaceful and staff very friendly. Landscape and cottage very clean. We will be back.

I found this place on Groupon for a 2 night stay and what a great deal it was! We celebrated our upcoming 20^th wedding anniversary this weekend and had a lovely time. We stayed in cabin #6 which has such cute décor and perfect size for a couple spending a cozy weekend. The bed was comfy with plenty of pillows and blankets and the room stayed nice and toasty as did the bathroom. We really enjoyed the Pub. The staff were very friendly and the food was delicious. We weren’t hungry for dinner either of the 2 nights but enjoyed the appetizers: Cheese Platter, Lemon Drop Prawns, and Clam Chowder. Delicious! The prices were reasonable as well. Love the history of this place and the scenery is beautiful. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to stay.

Want to stay in a busy parking lot 30 feet from a busy bumping club? It will be like you went to a busy downtown area and set up camp in a busy bar parking lot, to call that home for a weekend. How about loud construction all day on Valentine’s Day? They did that too! We thought that would be it, but ooOoh no, too much for this classy place: we were bombed out of our cabin this morning at 9:30am with a propane weed burner — a SMELLY, LOUD, concentration camp style burn out, left the cabin smokey and yes, got us up and out… thanks oh so much for the wake up call fockers. All the thumbs down. Save yourself and book anywhere else. Why someone would pay for this ‘service’ is beyond me. Tsk, tsk.

Oh. My. God. I don’t even know where to begin… Well, here we go… I’m going to keep it simple and detail as much as I can.
First off, my fiancé and I found this awesome Groupon deal last week with the attractive title «Romantic Getaway on the Olympic Peninsula at Robin Hood Resort». I clicked on it, and as I always do… I went on Trip Advisor and Unilocal to see the reviews on this place. I’ve heard great things about the Olympic Peninsula and Olympic National Park, but I didn’t know much about the lodging areas. Based on my research, I saw positive reviews with one or two negative reviews, but it didn’t bother me much. I went to check out the interior rooms of the resort on the website, and I was impressed with the cozy and contemporary design. My fiancé and I decided to book for 2 nights with the resort. We wished we could get the unit with the private hot tub, but I guess it was such a hot deal that the units w/​hot tubs ran out.
The day we arrived, we were very very very surprised with the rustic setting: it isn’t like a fancy resort facility that you would expect from Alderbrook Resort or Suncadia Resort, but it is like a little village! Well, nobody was in the office on the day we arrived, but they left the room key ready for us in the cottage. There was a nice lady, who seemed to do a little bit of maintenance, helped us get the cooking kit (free of charge — of course) since our kitchenette didn’t have a stovetop and pots/​pans. Other than that, we were equipped with bowls, utensils, cups, towels, paper towels, toilet paper, TV, small refrigerator, toaster, coffe machine, microwave, bath/​facial towels, comfy bed, a warm shower, and wifi!!! Yes, you will still get to know what the heck goes on on your facebook and emails despite your cell
phone might lose service out there! By the way, we definitely enjoyed the little creek outside our cottage, for my fiancé sat outside on those 2 nights he stayed for its water sounds.
We enjoyed the overall property of Robin Hood. It has several fire pits, BBQ grill, and a water property across the resort. We didn’t get the chance to go oyster fishing or kayaking because we were busy doing hiking at the Olympic National Park. However, I think those activities on the water would be more fun in the summer? Not to forget to mention two goats on the property… They are so adorable. One would actively approach you and rub his head against your thighs or butts. The other one is kinda passive and just does his own thing. Haha. They are soooo cute!
The distance from Robin Hood to Stair Case at the national park is just fantastic. We loved it. We enjoyed it. We just simply fell in love with it. Thank you, Robin Hood, for making our stay sooooooo fantastic. Everyone is so laid back and nice out there in the area. Haha. It made our getaway from Seattle, WA even more worthy than anything!
Oh yes, we are coming back to this place. BUT we are definitely getting the unit with the private hot tub.

My other half and I stayed here from December 24 – 28 and had an amazing little vacation. We stayed in cabin 11 and I must say, it was incredibly clean when we got there! It had a full kitchen area and we were able to go to Safeway to get some fruits and stuff for breakfasts and keep it in the fridge. The couch and living room was very cozy, shower did not run out of hot water on us and we were there for 4 nights and five days. Our hot tub was secluded, clean, and wonderful! Loved going out to it multiple times a day and randomly at night! The bed was comfy, they had a rack to hang clothes on, and supplied a lot of towels and washcloths! The weather was beautiful and Union is gorgeous! They have a little area across the road with a dock and designated area for the guests which was awesome. We ate at two margaritas and alderbrook for our meals, the restaurant was booked already during our stay which was understandable because of the holidays and we didn’t call ahead.
All of the staff were very friendly, we walked around and hiked with the goats that live there and were able to drive to the state park for other great hiking areas. It was a fantastic Christmas there and I am so happy we went. Wifi isn’t the best, but who cares! Shouldn’t be on your phone while at such a wonderful little place anyway.
I would recommend them to all and we will be going back!:) the little shop up the road is cute too! Overall, we had a wonderful experience!

We booked a weekend in November in Cabin #13 and when we arrived all of Union was out of power. The staff at Robinhood Village Resort graciously let us reschedule our weekend. We booked Cabin #9 for January 9 – 11. The staff was very friendly when checking us in and the cabin was very charming and (mostly) clean.
The Robinhood Restaurant and Pub on-​site, which is quite modest, has surprisingly great food. We ordered the shrimp and flatbread appetizers (which were delicious and easily rival what is offered at Alderbrook) and halibut and chips (with their homemade fries and aioli sauce). We recommend working your way through the menu. The price for what you get is fair. Sadly they don’t open for service until 4pm.
That is where the positive review of our trip ends. The hot tub in Cabin #9 is not private as we expected. (The hot tub in the cabin we originally had booked is more private.) It looks right at the deck of the cabin next door. In addition, we had to get out of the hot tub after a couple minutes because of a strong mildew odor. We had to immediately shower to get the smell off our skin. We left a message on their voicemail and a written message at the front desk for staff regarding the issue and have yet to hear back as of noon on our second day. Bring your own beach towels. The only towels provided are small bathroom towels and there is a limited supply in your bathroom for your stay.
This cabin has an 8-​gallon water tank so don’t plan on taking hot or long (aka normal) showers. They claim you can take a 15-​minute shower and it takes 30 minutes to recover the hot water. My husband took a 7-​minutes shower. I waited 15 minutes to take my shower and ran out of hot water before I could wash my hair.
The kitchenette has a small sink, good-​sized mini fridge (with ice tray), toaster, microwave, and coffee pot. Bring your own coffee grounds because the coffee provided is for a different style of coffee brewer and only works if you tear open the individual pouches and pour them in a standard filter. (If you want to make a full pot of coffee, you’ll want to open all four pouches provided in your room to get regular strength coffee.) Basic dishes are provided – plates, cups, silverware, and wine glasses. You may need to pre-​wash them, the silverware in our cabin was so dirty they were sticking together.
There is a slow wifi connection available for guests. We would recommend bringing your own hotspot if you plan to use an internet connection during your stay. We have Verizon and are able to get a 4G connection. There is a TV and DVD player. There is a small collection of DVDs you can borrow from the office. The selection is very limited, so if you plan to watch a movie you may want to bring your own.
The bed was comfortable, until you moved, at which point the entire bed bounces and rattles. We woke up dozens of times throughout the night because of this and the constant sound of the heater rattling and fridge humming on and off. The couch has a hid-​a-​bed which is terribly uncomfortable to lay on (the mattress has no support and you can feel the springs beneath).
Regarding Union, the only places to get breakfast in town (according to the locals) are Union Deli and Alderbrook. We walked the trail to the Union Deli hoping to get breakfast on a Saturday morning (we heard good reviews) and there appeared to be only one person working the whole joint, and she was running around serving all the tables and servicing the drive-​through window. We didn’t even see a cook working in the kitchen. After ordering coffee, which was great, we left and went to Alderbrook. The restaurant happened to be closed until noon on this particular day, the first day open after the whole resort was closed for a week of maintenance. We ended up driving to Hoodsport (24 miles away) and had breakfast at the The Tides Family Restaurant (basic diner fare).
We were excited to stay at The Robinhood after reading several great trip reviews on Unilocal but due to a ‘dirty’ hot tub (which was never addressed by staff) and terrible sleeping conditions, we will be checking out early and forfeiting our second paid night. We will not be returning to this resort.

I don’t even know where to begin about Robin Hood Village Resort. First of all, the location is GORGEOUS, placed right off the side of a mountain, next to a beautiful lake. The cottage is about one hour from Seattle so aside from all of the gorgeous landscape, the city is not too far away. I felt a sudden sense of ease upon arriving and the stay I had was one of the most relaxing i’ve had in a while.
We stayed in cottage #11 that has a full kitchen (stove, microwave, oven, fridge… etc) stocked with every pot, pan, strainer and appliance you may need to prepare whatever food you like. The tile was completely new and the entire cottage was spotless. The bedroom had new carpet, new bedding and adorable furniture. I believe the bed was queen size.
The outside area was beautiful and two goats take residence there and are owned by the resort. One goat is very sweet and one is very lazy and likes to rub your leg with his head! There is a creek RIGHT outside the cottage that is followed by forest swings, and ropes to play on. During our stay we saw the salmon run and it was beautiful. The creek also runs straight into the lake that is literally ACROSS THE STREET. With its own dock, I was completely taken away with the breathtaking beauty of the area. One of the most beautiful places i’ve ever seen.
The owners are also very sweet and extremely accommodating. We stayed during winter and after 28 degree nights, our water had frozen over and the male owner came and warmed our water supply for us so we had fresh water in the morning.
DID I MENTION THAT THERE IS A PUB IN THE RESORT’S PARKING LOT? Craft beers for $ 4 on draft! The gourmet gastropub burgers and yummy bistro food was delicious. It was like a beer lovers, nature digging, hippie dream for me.
I have already highly recommended Robin Hood Village Resort to everyone I know and I cannot wait to go back, perhaps during summer time so I can enjoy the lake and sit out at night at watch the stars.
I MISS YOU ROBIN HOOD VILLAGE!

Spent 3 days here, midweek, quite and relaxing, paid full rack rate and don’t care, very nice, would love to come again but I live 1500 miles away in Texas, oh well, it was great while it lasted

Really this is about as good as it get. I won this stay in a raffle at work so I didn’t research the place like I would typically have, and as it turns out I was pleasantly surprised! They take dogs of any size so we were able to bring our Great Dane no problem. She loved the back yard and the trails into the woods to take her walks on. We stayed in cabin #7, which really is a mobile home built in 2007. It has a fun kitchen, living room and one queen bed in the bedroom. Also a nice sized hot tub on the porch. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook our meals for 2 days, the only thing it was missing was a dishwasher.
Pros:
–comfortable bed
–well equipped kitchen
–nice sized living room with two couches
–plenty of room for 2 people and one great dane
–electric fireplace in living room (dog loves the fireplace)
–loved the grounds, the river, trails and yard to walk the dog.
–Cabin was very well cleaned and maintained.
–Grounds were clean and well manicured.
Cons:
–No daily housekeeping, this wasn’t a big deal for us, but we assumed that we would have daily housekeeping so we came dangerously close to running out of towels.
–Depending on the season the cost for staying there can be VERY high.
Would I stay here again? Absolutely though I would keep an eye out for one of their groupon deals or do it in the off season.

Wow! One of those groupon deals I bought and almost forgot… so glad I didn’t. This would be an adorable place to have a party with lots of couples or a small wedding or party.
Our «cabin» was super clean, adorable, and had its own hot tub. The town of Union is tiny but beautiful, with a cute little market, a decent place to get breakfast, and gorgeous views.
We brought a cooler filled with steaks and asparagus that we grilled up on the super nice, covered, communal gas grills. It was great to have the privacy of not sharing walls with people while still knowing we could walk a few hundred feet and be in a bustling restaurant and pub. Plus, the resort owns kayaks and row boats for guests to use… I want to come back asap!

Had a very nice stay. Staff was friendly, cabin was clean and well kept, nice grounds with availability for campfires, grilling and overall relaxing. A small dock on site with kayaks and accessibility to oyster fishing. Only let down was the restraint on premises. We ate there twice, giving it a second chance and were disappointed with quality, taste and price. !!

Got a Living Social deal to Robin Hood and, looking back, would gladly have paid full price for our stay!!!
The resort feels like it is straight out of Dirty Dancing or something. There are a few original cabins, bigger lodges, and some really nice trailers. My wife and I went up with another couple and we stayed in separate cabins. We stayed in one of the original cabins which was perfect for us. Small and cozy with all the great old finishings, even the date etched into the mantle above the fireplace! The only bummer is that it does not have any kitchen, just a small refrigerator. However, this was made clear to us BEFORE arrival so we knew what we were in for.
Our friends stayed in one of the great trailers which was really nice! It was well lit, clean and spacious. It had a full kitchen and a great electric fireplace. While it was really nice on the inside, we spent most of our time in the hot tub or shell fishing! The privacy fences the resort built around the hot tub makes you feel like you are the only ones at the resort while also still being tasteful to look at from the outside.
The shellfishing across the street was also fantastic! While they do have a private beach with little boats, chairs, a fire pit, games, and a crabtrap, the staff also told us of a public beach up the road with better shell fishing. Needless to say, we ate a TON of oysters. We grilled em, fried ‘em, and ate ‘em raw. The license needed was only $ 16 and we more than ate our share even if we had only fished during that weekend!
The staff is also super fun and the pub/​restaurant on site was jumping each night we were there (fri and sat). Despite that, it is was very quiet and we would never have known how busy it was if we went to bed early — it is that quiet!
