Whistlin' Jack's Outpost & Lodge

Whistlin' Jack's Outpost & Lodge, a historic riverside retreat in Naches, Washington, has been a cherished stop for travelers between Mount Rainier and the Yakima Valley for over 65 years. Established in May 1957 by Helen and Bill Williams, the lodge quickly became a welcoming haven for visitors seeking rest and provisions. After Bill’s passing, ownership transitioned to Doug and Kristy Williams in the 1970s, keeping the business in the family for several decades. In 2019, a group of investors from Seattle and Yakima purchased the property, ushering in a new era of restoration while preserving its nostalgic charm. Extensive renovations have since been made, including roof, floor, and hot tub replacements, ensuring modern comforts blend seamlessly with its historic character. The lodge’s iconic Fireside Lounge & Restaurant, originally built in the early 1900s, continues to serve guests, offering a glimpse into the region’s rich past. Today, Whistlin' Jack’s remains a premier destination for lodging, dining, and outdoor adventures such as hiking, camping, and snowmobiling. It has also become a sought-after wedding venue, where couples celebrate amidst the stunning natural beauty of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest and the Naches River.
