The location is great. The bed was comfy. Everything felt clean and there were thoughtful touches like the night lite and coffee creamer. The place is quaint but dated. This was especially evident in the bathroom. Turning the water to hot made the very loud water heater in the hallway kick in. The toilet handle had to be jiggled. And everything in the bathroom needs an update. Having said all that - the price was fair. And it was clean!

We really enjoyed our stay in”Fern”. It was a charming well appointed cabin located walking distance from town. We never used our car. There were outdoor couches under the pine trees which were very nice to hang out in. Everything was clean and parking was assigned and right by our room. We would definitely stay there again.

Nice location close to the town center. The rooms were cozy but the walls are very thin so you can hear everything in the adjoining rooms. Also the bed and pillows were quite uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good nights sleep.

I’ll start off by saying that the location of this property was perfect. It was walking distance to the main town which made it very convenient. Even with that, I would not stay here again. I stayed in the Redwood cabin and it looked NOTHING like the photos. The photos online made the room look trendy, hip and upgraded. Instead, the room was dusty, outdated and some things in the room were broken and falling apart. I hope the other cabins are in better condition.

So cute and cozy

Such a cute place! I wanted cozy, rustic cabin vibes and it 100% delivered. Loved having my own fireplace, patio, and being able to walk into town. The owners had clear communication and check in was very easy (self-check-in). The ONLY negative I can say is that the walls are very thin, I could hear my neighbors TV very clearly, people talking outside, and traffic going by (it’s right on the main road into town), but the AC unit drowned out most of the noise, and it was fine at night. It was the perfect spot for me and my dog overall though. I’d stay here again!
