Nice cozy rustic stay with the creek flowing right in front of the cabin. The room is nice and cozy with 2 adult beds and one small kid bed. The bathhouse is separate from cabin but is clean. The only thing missing in bathhouses is the bath rug mat. It gets all wet and difficult to wear clothes in the changing area attached to bathroom. The door opens only with keys from outside. We dint know it and had to run to the office to get other key which is little far from the cabins on a hill.

It was a decent stay. The room was clean but very basic. Coffee maker was not working but replaced immediately when we notified the owner. The cabins are pretty close together and we had a very belligerent and noisy guest that woke us up very early. Of course that was no fault of the owners or property.

Such a cool property. The beautiful noise of running water was so nice and the cabins were much nicer than I expected. They were like little hotel rooms.

Great idea for dinner

The check in area was hard to find for us. The shared bathroom was what you would expect, but very nice. The cabins were cute with little walk ways. Hostess made great recommendations to the Pizza place, (walking distance and family owned)...Awesome!!!

The cabin was decent, comfy bed, clean towels, toiletries, hairdryer, fridge, it had served its purpose for one night. The heater in our cabin is not strong enough to warm the whole place, we put on extra layers and it worked. The parking spot first come, first served, no lines, you just kinda have to make your own parking. However, I had a disappointing experience with the customer service provided by Leslie on the phone at around 8pm. When I called the front desk to confirm their hours, Leslie informed me they were open until 9 PM. So, I mentioned we would be arriving later than that, and while she provided instructions, the call quality became poor for a bit and I couldn't hear her clearly. So, I politely asked her if she could repeat half of the information, but she responded with noticeable irritation and raised her voice. When I followed up with a question about the location of the keys, her frustration was evident, and she almost yelled. This level of rudeness is unacceptable and reflects badly on the hotel's customer service.
