NATURE RESORT
IN WASHINGTON STATE
Your romantic getaway begins at Menizei, a forest retreat nestled in the Pacific Northwest and perched high above the Salish Sea.
As Washington State’s first luxury campground, your secluded basecamp features our signature blackout tent with a viewing deck and an artisan-designed bathhouse by award-winning architects GO’C. After a day exploring Olympic National Park, unwind in your private sauna with breathtaking ocean views—a truly immersive sensory escape.

Design Your Retreat
SAVOR Nature
Located just 15 minutes north of Olympic National Park in Washington State, Menizei offers an escape from the grind of city living. Your immersion in nature doesn't end after exploring the park; your basecamp is nestled among sky-scraping Grand Fir, Hemlock, and Western Red Cedar trees—the eldest residents of our campground.
REPLENISH YOUR BODY
Savor your best night’s sleep. Ever. Our proprietary blackout tents keep the early morning light at bay, so you can sleep soundly and wake slowly. Your tent is sumptuously appointed with a king bed and luxury linens. Open the mesh doors and windows to let in the ocean breeze, or secure the canvas for total privacy. With waves from the Salish Sea crashing below for the ultimate noise machine, you’ll fall into a deep, restorative sleep.
CELEBRATE CONNECTION
Surprising your honey with a proposal? Or planning an anniversary celebration? Your unique love deserves a unique stay. Enjoy our resident love birds—two eagles who know how to flirt—on your private viewing deck, or savor a couple’s massage while listening to the waves of the Strait of Juan de Fuca crash against your slice of the bluffs. Menizei is made for romancing. You bring the ring. We’ll bring the backdrop.
Forest Cocoon
YOUR URBAN DETOX AWAITS
At Menizei, we invented forest cocooning—a travel wellness wake-up call designed to help couples ditch the urban grind and reconnect with nature and each other. No WiFi, no schedules, no one else in sight. Just you, your +1, and the quiet luxury of forest and sea.
SIGNATURE AMENITIES
Where luxury meets the wild
Sleep like the forest closed the curtains just for you. Our blackout tent promises deep rest and zero distractions—with the ocean’s soundtrack compliments of the house.
Relax in minimalist Adirondack chairs and soak in panoramic views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. On clear days, catch a glimpse of Canada’s coastline beyond.
Skip the communal showers. Indulge without guilt. Your private shower and bidet touch the land lightly—minimal footprint, maximum peace of mind.
After a day exploring Olympic National Park, indulge in your private sauna with stunning views of the Salish Sea for a full sensory escape.
At Menizei, walls are merely polite suggestions. Skylights and expansive windows blur the line between indoors and out. Nature isn’t just a view—it’s part of your experience. By design.
Finding EV chargers near Olympic National Park can be tough—Menizei makes it effortless. Recharge your car and your spirit before your next adventure.
