Amazing place to stay!!!
Right on the creek. This Place has history, character and serenity! We have been coming up for 20 years to Christopher Creek but always camped, this time we got this cabin for our 25th Anniversary. We were quite impressed! Cabin was clean and a great bed. Located right off the creek so we of course had to rock jump down the creek. Ate meals on the chairs by the creek. Even Walked the roads to experience the history of the cabins. Definitely staying here again! Highly recommend!!

Beautiful and serene
I stayed here the weekend of my wedding, it was a gorgeous place to get ready for my big day and sitting out by the creek while I wrote my vows was incredible! Love this little piece of heaven.
Everything was good until the cleaning person showed up. We were running 12 minutes late loading the car. He pulled into the drive and as I left I asked him if he was the cleaning person. He was rude and he really didn’t need to be that way. It was upsetting. Other than that we enjoyed the cabin.

cabin by the creeek
great cabin and location,very clean and quiet. enjoyed the daily visit by the elk but not so much the skunk!!! no problem.
Just to let you know shower drains slow??? maybe septic needs checking. Also could not get outdoor light string to work. It would have been lovely to have fire table work being out every evening for the price we paid.. Got by without grill,just had to use stove. Enjoyed hiking everyday. we turned furnace off...thanks Jean
