It sounds like there are amazing views and things to do but for a quick drive in, we had no idea where we were supposed to go. This trip was very last minute and only about a week after we got back from Europe so we didn't plan properly. We didn't stop at all, though, because it's purely a residential area and we already felt a little creepy.Īlthough we left our dogs at home and never made our way to the ranger's station, we had read online that at the station, they do provide dog-friendly maps so you can easily navigate with your pooch. We drove onto Lake Drive N and it was a pretty sad state of houses but absolutely gorgeous views of the lake. While on the main road, we stopped in the little town (can you even call it that?) on the right hand side. You can book your room at the Quinault Casino here. Along with the casino, the property has an ocean-view restaurant, a relaxing spa, and a gift shop.

The casino in Ocean Shores is the Quinault Beach Resort and Casino. Then we drove back to the main road and drove on part of the northern side but it's pretty much 100% residential, with no trace of things to do for people visiting. This was one of their favorite things to do in Ocean Shores.

We drove down to where there is a small parking lot on the right for the 'World's Largest Sitka Spruce.' It was a short walk to a gigantic tree with a short description. We took the road on the southern side of the lake and it was much more developed than the northern side.
