Beautiful location within walking distance to the state park. There’s a cute little river that runs through the back of the property. The location offers free use of games, volleyball, ping pong, board games, horseshoes and books.

10/10 Exceptional

Such a gem of a place. It’s nestled beneath redwoods and runs on septic— so expect a natural/eco resort experience. The fireplaces are excellent and the kitchenettes have the basics. Staff are kind and the grounds are nice to explore anytime of day. Ps- be sure to check out the Grove Cafe for the best gluten free breakfast and lunch options AND ‘The Bizarre Bazaar’ in town for vintage finds plus a trip to the whooshing well.

Views were beautiful. But the bed was very uncomfortable, the heater didn't work and the staff was cleaning the cabin next to us all hours of the day. Asked for a refund for the day not used because we left early and thet denied it

6/10 Good

I absolutely love this place and will be returning ! That said the communication isnt the best between the resort and the guest. We came back to the cabin around 9pm to find the kitchen filled with what looked like a couple thousand ants. I understand it was late and didnt expect a call back that night , but i did expect one in the morning as i did leave a voice mail explaing what was going on. I ended up "taking care" of the ants with all that i had.. boiling hot water and dawn soap. A minor inconvenience i suppose. Again ill be coming back to this lovely place in the future and will even be bringing more family as it is truly a family style resort!

8/10 Very good

Cabin 11A was spotless and very warm. The only downside to the stay is the heater is extremely loud. It’s a loud buzz that continues for over an hour. It’s not pleasant & is hard to tune out. Almost sounds like an alarm. Not sure if staff is aware? Unless all the heaters sound like this.
