Carina Organics
Carina Organics is a very important part of our efforts. We provide guests with Carina organics body wash, shampoo & conditioner, lotion, and hair gel.
These products are made from high quality natural ingredients that are not only septic safe (we are on a septic system), but are also safe to deposit into the soil after the septic system process is complete. This ensures that the woodlands of Olympic National Park & Lake Cushman's ecosystems will not be negatively affected by our guests hygiene products.
And, one last reason we love using Carina Organics: they help us reduce our single use plastics use via a bulk refill program.

Coffee & Tea
We’ve found that guests expect single-serve coffee instead of the traditional coffee pot. But, it was important to use that we not contribute to the coffee pod waste that has become a large contributor to waste. And, we wanted to provide a quality option- we know the PNW loves their coffee. We searched long and hard for a solution, and decided that a super-automatic espresso machine was the best way the balance quality with reduced waste without making things too complicated for our guests. It truly is "super-automatic," so even if you've never used an espresso machine before, you'll find it easy.
Additionally, our selection of teas come from B-corp certified Bigelow Tea company. They have some of the best practices in the tea industry, and use only renewable energy sources.

This ensures that the woodland and waterway ecosystems will not be negatively affected, and guests will have a safe & clean place to stay. We use powdered detergents to reduce the impact of shipping heavy (water) products.
