Disliked: Staff & service
Not exactly what we expected.
During the reservation process, we were under the impression we would be getting a private yurt. Instead, we had the room immediately adjacent to the kitchen inside the house with very very very thin walls. The pillows were horridly deflated and flat. That said, the room was clean, the mattress firm, and the full house of guests were quiet by 11 pm.

Ah, where to begin with this gem of a hostel? The prices rival those of a mid tier hotel, so naturally, you would expect the basics of customer service. The staff here are a special breed. They greet you with an air of disdain, making sure you know you’re lucky they allowed you to book a room. And the hospitality doesn't end there! They generously share their germs, coughing and sneezing with wild abandon. I inquired about their health and two staffers proudly admite to being sick with a cold or a flu. One of them saying “we are all sick here” (Adrianne, I think?) Despite numerous polite requests to wear masks or, heaven forbid, take a sick day, they heroically refused rolling their eyes. After all, what better souvenir could there be than a flu on your flight home? As a cherry on top, you have to clean the bathrooms after you shower. Nothing says "vacation" like scrubbing tiles and wiping down surfaces while trying not to slip on the still-wet floor. Why would the very ill staff do anything when YOU can play housekeeper? And don’t forget your earplugs, the $200/night yurts are next to a noisy highway. Bring your hand sanitizer, medical kit, cleaning supplies and you should be good to go!

Nauti but Nice
Nauti Otter was a quaint place. Accommodations were good. I’m guessing not for everyone. Good place to rest your head after a long day hiking, kayaking, fishing. Showers are unconventional you put your name on a time. Make your own waffles and pancakes were great. Also had oatmeal. Bring your own food to cook if you want. We would stay again.

This place was exactly as advertised. It was a neat hostel environment with clean options for showers and baths and a full kitchen for coffee, breakfast and cooking. It was a family atmosphere with a great on site host. Our cabin was tiny but all we needed with lots of character. We would stay again.

I really liked the price and the caretaker of the property. She was extremely helpful and kind. Be prepared for the Hostel experience though ... my "room" was cold! the outdoor shower was cold. The outdoor bathroom was cold. If you are prepared to deal with those things, you will love this place. If you are not, you will complain. I loved it!!!
