We stayed in cabin #1 which had two queen beds, one in the bedroom and the other in the living area. Both were comfortable and had nice linens. The bathroom was very dark and cramped (walk-through setup). The kitchen had minimal supplies which was fine for drinks, sandwiches, snacks, etc. but there was no coffeemaker, so bring your own or plan to do without. Wood and kindling were supplied which could be used in the fireplace or the outdoor fire pit.

The setting was nice with lots of trees and the deck overlooked the small river and campgrounds on the other side. The cabin wasn’t insulated so it was stuffy during the day and cold at night. There wasn’t a lot of traffic on the highway at night, but we could still hear it from inside the cabin. We could also hear some of the campers just talking – I guess the sound travels well across the river. There’s really no privacy inside the cabin either. You could hear every sound made from the bedroom to living area, and in fact could see into the bathroom through the paneling from the kitchen.

It wasn’t really a bad place to stay, but I think we’ll try somewhere else next time.

I stayed in Cabin 7 with my boyfriend for one night in October. We loved the area and the cabin. I loved that the cabin was clean and comfy and couldn't get enough of the sound of the creek right outside. He loved the rustic setting, the beautiful trees and outdoor scenary. It was very quiet when we were there and cabin 7 really is close enough to the water that you can hear it in the cabin.

Book this hotel well ahead. Be sure to go to the Hotel's web site and view the map with the cabin locations. If you can, get a cabin with a deck... looks over the tiny but beautiful river, which is bordered by huge evergreen trees. Stunning. Makes you wish you could paint!

Cabins are cozy but comfortable enough. It feels like camping out there, but you have all the comforts of home. (Our room had a little kitchen.) We just didn't want to leave our room, as the view is so pretty from inside as well. There are firepits outside for those who want a little extra "camping" experience.

Because the cabins by the river are down below the road, there is no highway noise to speak of.. don't opt for #10 or 11 if traffic noise will bother you. Up by the road, you will also find a little grocery store and a restaurant that has quite a good and reasonably priced breakfast menu.

We have been going to this place for years, and it hasn't changed a bit. (so do expect old and worn interiors.) With the money you save staying here, do as we do. Head for the Ventana Inn and get a massage-- they will give you a robe and you can spend the afternoon by the pool (amazing views) and in the clothing optional hot tub!!

We stayed in Cabin #9 right next to the river. The first thing I noticed was how well kept the grounds and cabins were. The inside of our cabin was nearly spotless, the bed was clean and comfortable, and you can't beat the view of the trees and river from the deck outside. The kitchen had the basic utensils, gas stove, and a 3/4-size fridge. All things considered, it's a great bargain for what you get. Nearby restaurants/cafes are fairly good too.
