Check-in was a bit quirky, but the location is great with a beautiful backdrop. Note: there's no AC, so it was a little warm at night. We briefly didn't have hot water and stove gas, but it was fixed within an hour. Overall, I’d recommend this place.

This place is surrounded by nature. It’s a glamping experience as you are surrounded by the waterfall and various animals. You can even swim in the waterfall. They have 2 restrooms and showers, kitchen, dining, and tv about 20 feet from your sleeping area shared by guests from 3 lodges. They clean the restrooms and kitchen area daily.

Living with nature.

The trip to the bathroom at night was a problem for seniors. Must sign in after 3:00pm or no one is there. Living with nature, the sounds of birds and frogs, all the different plants and flowers, a fun experience.

It was beautiful but was freezing. Heavy rain the whole time. Pack as if you’re going camping with warm clothes, coats, socks, sneakers. No heater in cabin. Bad weather meant we couldn’t go down to see the waterfall or surrounding area. The place has potential but it wasn’t worth the money for us.

Beautiful property with new private cabins. Common area exceptional- with clean new restrooms and fully equipped kitchen/dinning area. Stream and waterfall is beautiful running below the cabins. Peaceful with the gurgling steam and chirping frogs. Sunrises on the hill is an added plus. Axel was extremely welcoming and educated us on the trees And plants he has planted. He is passionate about his property and happy to share with others. Highly recommend!
