About
The Hamma Hamma Cabin is a historic guard station built from 1936-1937 by the Civilian Conservation Corps and nominated to the National Register of Historic Places for its exceptional craftsmanship and architecture. Originally used as an administrative site for Forest Service fire and trail crews, the cabin now offers guests a tranquil retreat in Olympic National Forest. The single-story cabin accommodates up to 6 guests with two bedrooms (one double bed, one set of bunk beds) and a living room with a futon that converts to a bed. The hexagonal bay window overlooks the Hamma Hamma River drainage. The kitchen is equipped with a propane stove, table and chairs, dishes, pots, and utensils. The cabin features propane heat and lighting, a flush toilet (indoor plumbing for toilet only), and an outdoor picnic table and fire ring. Situated on a landscaped clearing surrounded by old-growth Douglas firs, dogwoods, and rhododendrons, the cabin sits near the scenic Hamma Hamma River. The area provides access to The Brothers Wilderness, Mt. Skokomish Wilderness, Hood Canal, and Olympic National Park. Guests can explore the quarter-mile Living Legacy Interpretive Trail from the cabin, hike to Lena Lake (3.5 miles), or fish the Hamma Hamma River for salmon and steelhead. The river's name comes from a Twana village called Hab'hab, referring to reeds growing along the riverbanks.
