This property has been in the owner‘s family for 100 years, and it feels very well lived-in. This is definitely not a sterile hotel room… there’s history here. Everything you could possibly need is provided and there is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy with family and friends. The main building has two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and another with a twin trundle, with a full bath between them. There’s a large eight seat dining table, and a comfy living room with tables to gather around for games. The second building has a king size bed and full bath with a deck overlooking the creek. There is a heater there, and what looks like a mini split, but we didn’t test it. There is also a washer and dryer in the second building. Communication with the host was excellent, and they provided a bottle of wine, a water cooler and coffee. It’s also a very pet friendly rental, and they provide towels for the doggos who want to swim in the creek There is no cell reception here; you’ll have to rely on the Starlink Wi-Fi. With plenty of provided puzzles, games, and books, it’s a cozy place to spend time away from the hustle and bustle. We also loved listening to LPs on the turntable! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0dcaba29-e4cb-4d7e-af1a-8150091542ba-1761435997830.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dd715304-e191-4b5c-9be2-af1863e578cc-1761435999997.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Christa Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### McKenzie Mar 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Beautiful place, the views are breathtaking.
