A concept site by Gateway Web Strategy + Design. The Red Alder Lodge is not a real hotel, and nothing here can be booked.

The lodge is invented. These places are not.

Twin Peaks was filmed in North Bend, Snoqualmie and Fall City, and most of it is still standing. If you are driving out here, these are worth the detour and they are all within twenty minutes of the front door.

Follow the story into North Bend, Snoqualmie, and Fall City. These places actually exist, outside the dream.

FIRST, COFFEE · NORTH BEND

The Double R Diner

Known in the waking world as Twede’s Café.

The real diner behind the Double R, with cherry pie, coffee, and all-day breakfast. Take a seat in North Bend and give a perfectly ordinary cup of coffee your full attention.

137 W North Bend Way · North Bend, Washington

THE FALLS · SNOQUALMIE

Snoqualmie Falls
& the Great Northern

Take in the falls from the park’s viewing areas. The lodge perched above them is Salish Lodge, the Great Northern’s familiar exterior. There’s something about that first glimpse.

A WALK BY THE RIVER · SNOQUALMIE

Ronette’s Bridge

Follow the Snoqualmie Valley Trail across the river on Reinig Bridge. Fans know it as Ronette’s Bridge. The water and trees are reason enough to linger a little.

THE SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT · SNOQUALMIE

DirtFish

The former mill office, used as the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department, now houses DirtFish’s working rally school. Call ahead to ask about fan visits and which areas are open to visitors.

THE ROADHOUSE · FALL CITY

A familiar place
after dark.

The Roadhouse exterior lives in Fall City. Inside today, you’ll find a real restaurant serving American food and cocktails. Check the menu and reservations before making a night of it.

ONE FOR THE DREAMERS · SNOQUALMIE CITY HALL

The Lynch drawings & welcome sign

Snoqualmie has a few more things for the notebook: a Twin Peaks welcome sign, a guestbook, and David Lynch’s original ink drawings. Confirm the current display arrangements before stopping by City Hall.

These are real businesses and public places. Confirm current hours and visitor access before heading out.
