The cottage was clean, cozy and absolutely perfect. I stayed in 11A and it was awesome. It had a cabin feel, and a great view of the trees and river. Loved the loft too! I'd stay here again. It was close to town but felt like it was far away in the woods. I loved the fireplace but if I could change one thing, I'd put a hot tub on the deck. A great getaway overall!

Such a gem of a place. It’s nestled beneath redwoods and runs on septic— so expect a natural/eco resort experience. The fireplaces are excellent and the kitchenettes have the basics. Staff are kind and the grounds are nice to explore anytime of day. Ps- be sure to check out the Grove Cafe for the best gluten free breakfast and lunch options AND ‘The Bizarre Bazaar’ in town for vintage finds plus a trip to the whooshing well.
