The hotel itself was very cute with the lodge theme, however the beds there were terrible!!! In this day and age, the beds should have been extra comfy. They sunk in so bad in the middle, we all woke up feeling like our backs were broken, even my kids complained!! Overall, it was ok, not the best. Staff was nice though

The front desk was super nice, the pool was really nice, it had a waterfall slide, hot tub, red slide, and a little 1ft pool. Definitely recommend if you have children. The room had a balcony (creek side), bear sighting in the parking lot. Also free parking, and trolley stops in front of lobby.

We loved our stay here. We had no issues and the office staff was always helpful and kind. The only thing I didn’t like was while getting breakfast, the man sitting at the round table just watching people get their food. It was strange.

The only issue I had was I was a lil concerned that they had a bed bug cover on our bed and u could tell they previously sometime or another have had them because they had the blood spots on the cover in several spots, I never saw any bugs or signs on the walls or any way where else and the other bed had a new mattress with no bed bug cover on it which I thought was a lil strange so we did go to the office and did say something about our concern the guy in the office said they didn’t have any other rooms available that he would put it in the notes for the manager for us to talk to the manager ,come morning we didn’t get bitten and housekeeping came around I explained to them about the bedbug cover and I told them I reported it they said they didn’t get any notes from the office, they said they would change it for us , we came back later and they changed it and but one also on the other bed , like I said I don’t know how long ago they had them but , I never seen any or got bitten but the fact that they left the cover on like that , I would have thought they would have changed it out , it just don’t make them look very good is all it’s a nice lil place, but I do think it could have been a lil cleaner it was pretty dirty under the bed and the bed frame and the tub top was lil dusty and other places but I’m a lil ocd but I love the cabin look, I love the stream behind it to go outside and sit outside our balcony, very relaxing! I was hoping to see bears but didn’t lol
