First the property itself is rustic, quiet, and convenient for us and what our goals of this trip was. Our goal was to stay somewhere affordable and nice to enjoy the town more. Which this is a perfect option for that. The rooms are definitely on the rustic, cabin vibes and the staff are very sweet and kind. I would say the only major downside was the interior heaters were non operational and they had these mini transportable heaters that just didn’t heat up the space enough. So it was VERY cold. And this is just personal for my preference but two pillows were not enough, would’ve at least liked four pillows. I know if I called, the staff would have provided it, again they were sweet but it was late and I didn’t want to wake them over some pillows. But! It would’ve been nice to have those extra pillows for sleep comfort. Overall, for a quick one night stay and getaway, with what our goals were in mind. I recommend it here and give it 4 or 4.5 stars.

Overall our stay was okay. Our first night was rough as we heard rats crawling around in the walls which kept us up all night. The room was not as clean as we’d hoped and the kitchen area had a strange smell. I really did love the concept of the bunkhouse cabin but it didn’t meet my expectations unfortunately.

Clean, adorable little room! The little balcony was a nice place to sit and watch birds and squirrels. Quiet and close to downtown. The ladder to the loft needs attention. The fridge needed attention. Otherwise a very enjoyable stay and I will most definitely be back. Thank you!

My husband and I stay in rural areas quite often on our getaways and we get that things aren't always perfect. HOWEVER, We have never stayed in a place for $240 a night with such a lack of attention to even the simplest of amenities. The name of the room we stayed in was called the, "Woodland Vista". For example, The walls in the kitchen were dusty with grease dripping down them. The kitchen sink was clogged with onions and hair floating when we arrived. The lady at the desk was happy to pour liquid plumber in it. The sink in the bathroom had hair in it. The bathtub seemed to have been kicked in on one side, exposing the wood frame and yuck behind it. Both soap dispensers in the bathroom were empty. Half of the light bulbs were out in the livingroom. The railing on the balcony is completely unsafe and could easily, if leaned on, go over. The breakfast consisted of a mini-juice box, a mini-scone, a soft apple and a single oatmeal bag both mornings. Not to bad, if the apple could have been fresh. We talked about complaining, but seriously, where would we start. We stayed our 2 nights, and will never stay there again.
