Thin walls

The two double bed cottage is actually a duplex with very thin walls. My family had to listen to the men next door having s*x all night. Not fun.

Let's start with the good: location, staff, good WiFi, and the canin was cute with river views. The area around the site is sketchy at night, so just be mindful walking around at night time, especially with kids. Now, the cons: Paper thin walls: honestly felt like our neighbors were in our cabin. I could hear every single word that they said, and they happened to have a screaming toddler and baby. That part isn't the site's fault, but it was so loud and awkward. We heard every snore and bathroom trip. Bed- it was old and not comfy in the cabin, I think maybe the beds are newer in the glamping tents and tiny cabins. They may be better, but our bed in arguably the best cabin was old, creaky, and not comfy. Cleanliness- they wipe off the tops of the drawers and kitchen maybe, but there wasn't any dusting and the pillowcases had stains. Shower- I was having a great shower until I heard a random knocking sound and then scalding hot water, not once but twice. Overall, we had the best cabin with great location and views, but we would never stay there again. Since the tiny cabins are separated from their neighbors and are newer so may be more comfy, I'd try this place again just based on the staff and location.

We stayed in a teeny-tiny cabin. Nice shower with nice products. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Nice bed! Two burner stovetop and mini fridge. Fire pit and picnic bench in front of each cabin. Just a few steps to Johnson’s Beach. Just a few blocks from Safeway and restaurants. La Bodeguita Mexican restaurant is a MUST. Property manager Chris is very kind and helpful.

I like how it’s situated close to the water and the ability to walk to restaurants and grocery store. I didn’t feel comfortable that the deadbolt didn’t work on the entry door or that the curtains didn’t close enough for privacy. As a single female alone I felt uneasy at night. Overall wonderful place to stay. Great staff. Thank you.
