The Miller Tree Inn AKA "The Cullen House"
Hidden away in the reserved little town of Forks, Washington is a gem of a B&B, The Miller Tree Inn. The home itself is over 100 years old and fits Stephenie Meyer's description of The Cullen House, with the exception that this home is located in town. That of course didn't matter once we stepped inside. Each room is decorated with Twilight memorabilia with the theme of each of the members of the Cullen family. It's a fun little game to guess who's room you are staying in.
The rooms themselves are spacious, with beautiful views and most importantly incredibly comfortable. While we are a bit spoiled in our travels and stay in some swanky hotels whenever we get the chance. There is just always something special about staying in that perfect B&B. When the house is warm and smells of fresh cooked meals. When the photos on the walls reflect memories and not just prints to impress. It makes you feel as if you are "home" with family.
The welcome we received from Bill and Susan was just as welcoming as a homecoming. They were very gracious in accommodating our requests. Unlike most vacationers we typically start our morning before breakfast is served. There is just too much adventure waiting for us! Expecting a simple cup of hot coffee, Bill and Susan, made sure we didn't leave without a proper hot breakfast. This turned out to be just what we needed for our walk out to the Hole in the Wall at Rialto Beach.
Forks is the perfect place to delve into a Twilight Novel Adventure. The backstories of the town and how Stephenie Meyer's writings and the Twilight Saga changed the town are fascinating. With the story aside there is just so much more to Forks. It's a great location for some amazing hiking trails. Hoh Rainforest is just a short drive outside of town, as are amazingly beautiful beaches.
