We had the best time at Waterfall Lodge. The cabin is beautiful, clean and so peaceful, There were places to hime, outdoor seating, a fire pit, hot tub, games, foosball, pool, video games, books, with so much to do you never needed to leave the cabin. 10 people in the cabin didn’t feel crowded. We have talked about making a trip to the cabin a yearly trip.

Beautiful property

We had a great time celebrating our mom’s 70th birthday at the Waterfall Lodge! Very well kept rental property and spacious. We needed all the bedrooms and one of the rooms downstairs was locked. We were able to get in touch with the owner quickly and he let us know where to find the key for the additional bedroom. Would highly recommend!!

A beautiful, spacious wonderful place to stay!

The waterfall constantly being heard as you stepped outside was our favorite part. The hot tub is wonderful, and the master bathroom is to die for! The kitchen was very spacious and we had plenty of room for around 12 people to enjoy a weekend here. I would recommend bringing an SUV for a more enjoyable ride, but it is just stunning! 10/10

The directions had a lot to be desired. The roads need better up keep. The sign for the cabin should be bigger and illuminated in the dark. Many u turns had to be made. Up the hill neighbors were great in guiding us, overall had a great time.

Childhood Friends Visit

Beautiful home/property!! Quiet and secluded, which is what we were looking for. Home could use updated bed mattresses. Also, we had to clean the patio furniture and decking because everything was covered in yellow pollen, and we wanted to sit outside in the evenings. Outdoor ceiling fans had no working lightbulbs in any of them. We did enjoy our stay, and would come to this cabin again.

Family Winter Vacation

While the toughest and most stressful part of this vacation was the ice/snow/mud covered windy and at times narrow road...with no warning...I am sure it will be the most talked about part of the vacation for years going forward. We would not have brought one of our cars had we known we were going into those types of roads with thick mud on steep terrain...the other two vehicles were built for it and able to manage...although it did have us on the edge of our seats the first time in and out. I have looked back and don't see any mention of the need to be able to maneuver those types of conditions - needs to be more transparent there. The hot tub was not used the first two days as the water level was low and the heater was not working because of it freezing jacuzzi water. The maintenance man was able to walk us through filling it and using the breaker, etc...warmed up just in time for the coldest day of the trip...we weren't able to build up enough courage to go out into that cold while wet. We loved the cabin, the kitchen and kitchen tools were perfect! Loved that the fireplace in living room was activated by a switch! Really enjoyed the fireplace. Very nice master bathroom.

Mountain Get AWay

3 generations enjoying a weekend in the mountains. First of all, property said it accommodated the number of people we had (which included a three year old @ two six year olds). However, when booked we were charged an extra fee for number over 4 guests! This was a 5 bedroom house! Then I specifically asked about grill & was told one was there & it worked! After waiting 30 minutes only to reach a temp of 250, we gave up! Our first dinner there was a disaster! Then I asked about mountain road & told nothing to worry about. Road was more than “bumpy”! Thankfully roads held up while we were there. We contacted property manager & they sent Keith to check grill. He said it happens as there is often a gap between guests-got it working right away! Had him check doors as they were sticking, he said doorknobs were shot & needed replacing-he didn’t repair them & we just didn’t use them. Property was nice but obviously had not be used recently. Setting was beautiful but you were definitely in the woods/mountains. Paid a hefty price to have any kind of issues!

Nice place, listing lacked a few details

Our family had a great time at the Waterfall Lodge! It was nicely furnished and had plenty of space for us to all spread out. Saw some bears, which was really cool. A few points to support my rating. 1)The 2-mile-long private road to the cabin is in very bad shape. Potholes, ruts, and spans of bare dirt where the gravel was missing, which was slippery in the rain. Should have been listed as a 4-wheel drive property. It took us 12 minutes to drive the 2 miles as we could barely drive 10 mph and had to avoid the potholes so when we drove back in for dinner, we were reluctant to go back out and do anything. (For reference, we drove a Honda Odessey and our adult kids drove small cars.) 2)The first-floor master suite was great with a really nice bathroom. When we went to hang up our clothes, we found that the master closet had a padlock on it. (Several other closets also were locked.) Two of us were left to share a single dresser and fold our clothes and there was no table for us to set up a suitcase. We also thought the master bed was just awful, as the mattress is uncomfortably hard and end of life with big divots on either side. Took lots of Tylenol. Should be upgraded asap! 3) I'm sure that the owners don't realize this but there were only 8 forks. Plenty of knives and spoons and cooking utensils though. We had to run the dishwasher every day. (One time the dishwasher leaked all over the kitchen floor and we mopped the water up with towels for about an hour.)
