Room was fine for my needs. And bed was firm. It was clean. The main complaint was just the thin walls and hearing other people’s conversations and snoring at night.

Clean room. Helpful cheerful staff. There was noise from people upstairs from evening until about 2am. Facility could use some sprucing up, but as it has a rustic charm vibe, maybe it's fine as-is! I needed to drive a ways down the road for morning coffee, as the cafe at the facility wasn't open until later

Rustic is an over-statement. Old. Everything pretty much worked. Lower cost option. You get what you pay for. Understand what you are getting. I would stay again.

Rustically Wonderful

Stayed here for the first time last year and booked it again for our recent trip. The location is great, it's rustic, but in a charming way. Love the little cafe/ice cream shop that has great morning pastries, but get there early...so you can get into the park early and avoid the lines!

Good choice

My son and I stayed here for one night. Overall it was good. My only wishes were more food options (son has celiac disease, I recognize that's not a common ask) and a way to keep the room a little cooler at night (had one small desk fan, no A/C). Location was great (6 miles from park entrance) and price was very reasonable compared to many of the other options near Nisqually entrance.
