Deer Park in the hills above Sequim is lovely. The road there was a little rugged last time I visited, but that was years ago so maybe it's different now. Lake Quinault is also really wonderful, and apparently where the term "rain forest" was coined (by FDR, in the version I heard.) If you're athletic, the climb up Mount Townsend is well worth it, and the trail is really pretty good. If you like to camp, drive out by La Push and hike a mile or two north from Mora. Hole in the Wall is very interesting. Be wary of bears there, though. Hang your bacon high in the tree. Mount Baker has lots to offer and doesn't get as much traffic as Rainier. If you like it dry, there's a great campground above Twisp (northwest IIRC) that is really nice.
