Hi guys! Thank yall for the help on my previous post it means sooo much!

Me and my friend were fortunate enough to rent a car at Turo.

-We decide to spend 2-3 days at port to see hurricane ridge, lake crescent, Madison falls etc.

which hotel/ lodge should we stay at that’s closest to all of them or the main ones??

- for day 3-5 we’re heading to the west to see the rainforest and the beaches. For the hotel in west we’re looking at the sol duc hot springs resort we just don’t know how far is it yet.

And on the 25th we have a plane to catch at 3 and that’s abt it.

-What would be the best plan to maximize our stay during this period of time without a car?

-My friend and I are under 21 so we can’t rent a car. I know hitchhiking is an option but It’s not safe and reliable to count on hitchhiking everywhere we go right?

How are the public transportation and busses like? Worst case we can find taxi and Ubers, but how available are they?

-Me and my friend are college students under 21 so unfortunately we cannot rent cars anywhere.

-We plan to stay at ONP from May 19-25th.

As I’m aware, busses are pretty reliable in the park (such as clallam transit and hurricane ridge shuttle).

-Do yall think 5-6 days is enough to cover all main attractions there? (Kalaloch beaches, rainforest, lake crescent, Madison falls, hurricane ridge etc.)

-We did look up a three day private tour from experience Olympic too but the prices are not that friendly. Are there better options than that or private tours are just overall a worse option than busses?

Lastly: If anyone who is also planning on to travel to ONP during that time and is willing to give us rides around the park (we will follow yalls schedule and pay for gas) pls hit me up we can talk about it 😁.
