The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
and Karen Duquette's sister, Ilse Blahak
stopped at The Jamestown S'Klallam Indian Reservation
in Blyn, Washington
and enjoyed the totem poles.

June 26, 2015

The Jamestown S'Klallam Indian Reservation is very small in area, comprising 13.49 acres of land area on and near Sequim Bay along U.S. Route 101 in the community of Blyn, in extreme eastern Clallam County at the southwest corner of the Miller Peninsula. The reservation is the location of the tribal government administration, not a residential area. It includes the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribal Center (location of the tribe's administration, natural resources, social and community services departments as well as the Tribal Library and Jamestown Family Dental Clinic), the Tribe's Seven Cedars Casino, and the Longhouse Market, Deli and Fueling Station.
