"The cabin we rented was clean and nice. Beautiful location. Amenities were very nice. We needed a place last minute and got the last cabin that had a queen bed in bedroom downstairs and the loft had steep steps to get up to, with two twin mattresses on the wood floor. Could not stand up so this space would be more ideal for children in loft. Enjoyed walking on dirt trail right by cabin and river."

"Our room was very small with very small bathroom. That being said, it’s a very old world cool property and I would go back. The hot pool (regular size swimming pool with 100 degree water) and the vapor caves were an experience! There are only a few rooms (maybe 10 or so) which makes it nice.
