Comfortable quiet spot

Comfortable stay, great service. Front desk responsive to the TV not working. Heating easy to control, easy to get ventilation, enough power outlets. Only negative was the shower control didn't completely block the bath faucet from flowing. Would highly recommend.

Great employees ! Quaint property built with logs in a beautiful location but the mattress was really bad- very soft.... Breakfast waffles were amazing and coffee nice and hot. But for the bed we would return. The bathroom was immaculate and the tub/shower had railings which was very helpful.

Nice little place. Right on the creek with a fridge. Great staff. Aaron and the other kind lady (can't remember name) were awesome. I'm stunned by bad reviews by others. My friends and I had a great time and were very happy! I would definitely stay there again.

The stay was great and the service with better! The only things that I would have to complain about is the heater popping extremely loud when it would turn on and off. The bathroom also could use of extreme updating.
