“Having undergone a complete reinvention over the last five years, the enduring appeal of Salishan Coastal Lodge now shines brighter than ever. As this beloved destination approaches its 60th birthday, Salishan has once again been recognized as one of the Best Resorts in the West by Travel and Leisure Magazine,” said Ken Cruse, founder and CEO of SCP Hotels. “Holistic Hospitality values underscore all aspects of the new Salishan Coastal Lodge by SCP. While creating memories to last the next 60 years, guests can now rest assured their stay at Salishan Coastal Lodge will leave their souls healthier, their connections richer, and mother earth happier.”

Salishan Coastal Lodge, a member of the Soul Community Planet (SCP) Hotels collection, has embraced a farm-to-fork philosophy that enriches its culinary offerings with locally sourced ingredients. Partnering with over a dozen nearby farms, the lodge ensures its dishes are not only fresh and flavorful but also community-centered and environmentally responsible. The lodge’s in-house herb garden, brimming with basil, rosemary, and lavender, enhances its signature Wild & Free beverage collection, adding unique touches to craft cocktails. Collaborating with Anima Mundi Herbals, Salishan also introduces plant-based tonics and herbal supplements into its Wild & Free cocktails, offering guests a nourishing and holistic experience.

With menus crafted by SCP’s nutritionists, Salishan Coastal Lodge showcases the best of the Pacific Northwest through plant-forward dishes. Using ingredients sourced from local farms, the lodge provides guests with a truly sustainable dining experience, incorporating Zero Acre Oil across its menu for everything from dressings to sautéed dishes. Catering services prioritize waste reduction through made-to-order preparation, with any leftovers composted to ensure minimal environmental impact.

Wellness at Salishan: Nurturing the Body and Soul

Aligned with its mission of holistic well-being, Salishan Coastal Lodge offers a range of wellness activities designed to foster relaxation and connection. Guests can start their day with Soulful Start meditation or a daily Hatha Yoga session and unwind by the fire pit at Après Adventure after exploring the Oregon coast. For pet lovers, Yappy Hour provides a warm and welcoming environment to relax with their furry friends. Creative workshops, including Creative Writing Affirmations, Reiki, Herbalism, and Sound Bath Meditation, invite guests to explore their creativity and well-being. In partnership with the Audubon Society, monthly Perch & Pour events blend education with leisure, adding a uniquely Salishan touch.

Leading the Way Toward Zero Waste

Salishan Coastal Lodge has adopted an ambitious Net Zero Waste program, integrating eco-friendly practices throughout its operations. The lodge uses LED lighting, water-saving fixtures, and lithium battery golf carts, while its golf course is irrigated with recycled water. In collaboration with the local sanitary district, Salishan is pioneering a commercial composting pilot program, encouraging other local businesses to join in the movement. To further support its sustainability goals, the lodge uses Ecolab’s sustainable cleaning products and minimizes waste in in-room dining with reusable containers.

Salishan’s commitment to eco-conscious operations is underscored by its partnership with EarthCheck, a global leader in sustainability certification. This collaboration involves rigorous tracking of energy consumption, water usage, waste production, and emissions, culminating in the prestigious EarthCheck Silver certification. Through these efforts, Salishan is making significant strides toward a greener future, setting a high standard for sustainable hospitality.
