We wanted an inexpensive overnight between hikes. This place was ideal, not too far to Neah Bay, Ozette etc. Great views over the marina, nice neighbors, and lots of fishing activity for entertainment. The fishing crowd was a lot of families who were early to bed and very quiet. This isn't the upscale resort but all the amenities are there.... More

Sekiu is the only serious tho' small town between Port Angeles & Neah Bay, on your way to Cape Flattery or the north coastal beaches. Not expecting much from a self-avowed fishing town, and willing to put up with anything even tolerable for 1 night, I was very pleasantly surprised at this "resort". 2 buildings with various rooms carved out...

Great place with no major complaints. The public bathrooms can use a big face lift. It should not stink and look that bad. YIKES ! The staff are nice and the rates are acceptable. There store has everything you need for fishing.

Chris & Val, Owners of Van Rippers run a first class operation! My friends & I traveled 1100 miles with a 60ft. rig & were greeted with smiles & wonderful accomodations , and my boat was moured with all of our gear ,electronics, fishing poles ,down riggers ect.100yds from our room & was never bothered all week. Very Safe!! Chris... More

This is the best place to stay in Sekiu hands down. Very nice staff & owners, not like the a-holes on the far end of town. We stayed in a two bedroom (cheap room) and it suited our needs perfect. This is a fishing town so the rooms are designed just to suite your needs. There are two bedrooms, a... More

Van Riper's Resort is low-key and friendly. Sekiu is a very small fishing town, so small that it doesn't a grocery store so bring everything you may need or plan to drive to Neah Bay or Forks. The rooms are modest but comfortable. We cooked in our efficiency kitchen and dined on the deck overlooking the marina. The bald eagles... More

We feel we made the right decision to stay here after exploring the area. The property is centrally located to go up the coast or to explore Olympic National Park (we had considered staying in Forks). This is a big fisherman motel (as is the town of Sekiu); we didn't find any upscale places to stay on the northwest coast... More

We paid a little more ($15.00 or so) than the average rate because we have a BEACH FRONT - literally - view. We were able to sit and open the blinds and see boats as they came and went and we heard the waves crashing, saw bald eagles flying around, and had a FANTASTIC tide pool within 5 minutes! Not...

We stayed in the 2nd floor suit which sleeps 6 in a suite with full kitchen and full bath. Its was just the two of us but the extra room really made the difference. Views of the bay where great and the staff was very attentive. We decided that this was the best place to stay for hiking in this... More
