Port Angeles, Wash. – Olympic National Park is soliciting proposals to provide visitor concession services at Lake Crescent Lodge, Log Cabin Resort, Fairholme Store, and Hurricane Ridge. The new concessioner will provide lodging, food and beverage, retail, and other appropriate services over a 12-year term. The existing contract concludes on January 31, 2026.  

Concession contracts enhance the visitor experience by providing hospitality services that federal agencies typically do not offer, while still advancing the National Park Service mission. Concession operations can also expand employment opportunities in the communities surrounding national parks.  

All proposals from qualified offerors are evaluated using the same criteria to ensure a fair and competitive process in accordance with the National Park Service Concessions Improvement Act of 1998.  

The prospectus, which describes this business opportunity and includes the terms and conditions under which the National Park Service will award the concession contract, is available at:
