4 night stay

At check in the host was very friendly and suggested several places for breakfast and lunch. Room was pretty warm and window AC on full blast when I arrived. There was a steady stream of water, not just a drip from the bathtub tap. I tightened the handles and I think I stopped it. Bed was comfortable. TV worked. Nice towels. Quiet room except for trucks out on nearby highway.

Very accommodating and enthusiastic hosts/owners at the office. Very nice and clean room, although small queen, it had everything you'd expect at a larger motel room. We loved the knotty pine throughout the room.

The property was conveniently located, the garden and area around the lodge had a very natural vibe. The creek that ran through the property was beautiful. The room was clean yet small. It worked for us for one night. The owner was very nice, accommodating and had a lot of information about the area, food, and breweries.

The place was clean, but it was a no-nonsense hotel. Small and average. Bed was comfortable. Only stayed overnight. They usually have a campfire, but it was raining. No pool (which they never advertised). Older place. Also, it is called a lodge, but it was more like an older motel. Lady was both housekeeper and checked us in. Very polite and friendly.
