A perfect getaway! Came up for a long weekend with our dogs and enjoyed getting to hike straight from our front door! Amenities are simple but sufficient and the weekend cafe offerings are excellent! Staff is friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend and will be back! read more

Stayed a week in one of the RV spots; we have been coming here for 12 years now, usually in the cabins. We were SO impressed with how clean the resort was, and attentive to details the staff is! The store is well stocked; I smelled blueberry muffins baking in the morning; the smiles that the staff great you with; and, the breathtaking beauty of the location will keep us returning for another 12 years! Thank you. Parchers!!! read more

Let me begin by stating that the folks here are super nice. They are not only accommodating but their communication was fantastic too. I really appreciated this. Thanks guys! As a city-dweller, flat-lander, or however else one might refer to us "city folks"- I'll preface this review with- I am a reasonably intelligent person with reasonable expectations. I did my homework, and I knew what I was signing up for when booking our cabin. All cabins are different here so be aware of what floorpan you're booking and what the cabin offers. We booked a cabin for 4 people. It appeared that for our stay, you will receive 1 towel "set" per person based on cabin occupancy. With this, if your stay is more than a couple days, you may consider bringing additional towels. This isn't the Hyatt, folks. We brought our own toiletries, as well as an ice chest with our meals and snacks. Our cabin had a mini fridge, small oven, range, dishes, percolator, cooking utensils, tongs, and mixing bowl. We still prepared as though we were dry camping though so we brought a tote full of items/equipment we figured we may need including 1G of water per person per day. Cabins, in my opinion, are a tad run down- fishing/camping cabins. Again, not the Hyatt. They are cute, but ours was NOT clean. The mixing bowl was filthy, the bed skirt on one of the beds was soiled, the dining chairs were sticky, etc. I am glad that I brought a canister of cleaning wipes because I had to scour the floors myself, scrub behind the toilet, and wipe down the whole cabin. Again- absolutely FILTHY! I get that this is a camping cabin- I am a reasonable person, but to the person(s) cleaning the cabins- show a little effort! The previous guests' shower towel was also left behind on our towel bar. Yuck! Kitchenette also smelled fishy. For $295+ per night, I thought this was a bit much considering the Palazzo (a 5-star hotel in Vegas) is about the same rate depending on time of year. Apples and oranges comparison, yes- but Parcher's rates are a bit much for what you get. Just my opinion. And you are given departure instructions for stripping your own bed, washing dishes, etc. Insects/mosquitos were not an issue for us, however, one of the screens was in disrepair and so we had to deal with a lot of flies. Very quaint stream and pack-trail behind our cabin. Loved it! Ambiance here is awesome- lush, green, and mostly quiet. Guests seemed very respectful and observant of quiet hours which are 10PM to 7AM. One night we did hear faint music- which was we thought was a bit outlandish. I mean, it's ok to enjoy music but keep the volume to your own ears. Well-behaved dogs are welcome here and guests appeared very respectful with keeping barking at a minimum, keeping dogs on leash (yes, it's CA state law, folks), and picking up after them. Nice fire pit that we used each evening AND cooked on- we brought our own wood and charcoal briquets but remember to "buy it where you burn it" so that you don't transport invasive pests from another area. Bring a grill basket too if you're going to cook over the fire. I was also pleased that most guests seemed to be very respectful and observant of "light pollution." In other words, when you retire for the evening, turn off your outside/porch lights! It was nice that most guests were sensitive to this "unspoken rule." My only suggestion to the resort would be is to GET WI-FI! Offering Starlink to your guests would be a huge plus. I get that most of us are enjoying an off-grid experience but it should be our discretion (as adults and paying guests) whether or not we choose to be off-grid. Some of us have health issues, allergies, business, or other things requiring attention back home. Wifi and cell service is not a luxury anymore, rather a necessity for safety. With the resort currently being offered for sale, I have made the inference that perhaps staff is "backing off" a bit on the attention to detail that was perhaps applied in years past. Would we come back? Offer Starlink, clean the cabins well, and re-visit your rates and perhaps we will! You've got a wonderful resort- give it the love it deserves! read more

We have been coming to Parchers for several years. It was becoming a little run down over the past couple of years. The new owners have really shown a lot of pride. The first thing we noticed was they deep cleaned all of the cabins. and added breakfast options. Everything seemed a lot more organized this time. They are continuously making improvements and fixing things that were overdue. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay. The weather was cold, which is how I like it. The fishing was the best we've had in years. We plan on making two trips next year. read more

Wonderful experience! New owners (2 sisters who are backpackers/outdoorsy people--their 89 yo mother still backpacks) closed escrow two weeks before we arrived. All cabins impressively cleaned and refreshed. Amazing breakfast (although not other meals). Lovely hospitality. I highly recommend it. One cabin does have a seemingly permanent scent of skunk (in spite of all efforts to get rid of it) but we habituated to it and were fine. read more

Been coming here for years, and even though they've changed hands, the cabins remain clean and accessible, the staff are incredibly friendly and ready to answer questions or meet your needs, and remains local to South Lake, Intake 2, and Lake Sabrina. We didn't get a chance to sample their weekend breakfasts, but happy to know the option has come back. Will continue to stay here! read more

Wonderful place to just be in nature without any reception! Everything was perfect! Early in the season so pretty cold still but so peaceful. Great service cute country store great cabins. read more

Such a great escape we had from Orange County to Parchers. The environment on the resort is great and I couldn't believe the beautiful river hike we had ON the property! South lake a short five minute drive away, and gushing river sounds while we slept made the trip fantastic! read more

Just spent two wonderful nights at Parchers. We typically stay in our motorhome nearby but decided to take a quick road trip in the truck to check out the fall foliage. Everything was perfect! Our cabin was squeaky clean with plenty of towels, pillows and thick, warm comforters. Good quality pots/pans and nice dishes. The resort has beautiful trails and great fishing in the creeks running through the property. Caught a big trout! Fun sitting out on the front porch and then enjoyed a warm fire that night. Really appreciate being able to bring our dog with us. Friendly, helpful staff that offer great tips and do everything in their power to make your stay enjoyable. Conveniently located near everything. Will definitely come back! read more

My wife, my pup and I spent July 4th weekend at Parcher's Resort. At the risk of not having availability in the future and having to pay more for the ability to go, I gotta tell you, this place is as good as it gets when it comes to staying at a Sierra cabin. About me.. Love to camp and hike and get dirty, but at my core, I'm a snob and the place must be clean! You know when you first enter a hotel room or cabin or Airbnb and the first thing you do is breathe really deeply just to see if and how bad the place smells... Well, this place has no smell at all, it's just a clean, well maintained cabin. And we happened to have rented Cabin #1, the oldest cabin at the place! The cabins are clean, the beds are clean and comfortable, the tables, chairs and bathroom and fridge (our cabin did not have a kitchen, the other's do) all work well and are clean! The outdoor space with the picnic table and fire ring are perfect. The other guests at the property all seemed respectful and there to have a good time, not wild and noisy. The staff is friendly, helpful and respectful of this COVID situation. We felt safe and secure. The location is the closest you can get to access the trails up to places like South Lake and Bishop's Pass, you can start your hike from Parcher's. Short answer: excellent property! Thanks for your hospitality Parcher's Resort! read more

I miss this place so much! Everyday I'm not here is a day not spent in paradise! Parcher's Resort is such a fun place to go to just unplug from all the distractions that the city life demands and really just enjoy the beauty that the Eastern Sierras have to offer. If you were wondering I spent an entire summer here with my girlfriend Lindsey, where we worked for the Smith family and felt like we became apart of their family! With that being said the entire Parcher's Resort staff of the 2016 season really made our Summer an unforgettable one! Lindsey and I catch ourselves talking about our experience there at least once a day. We learned valuable new skills like fishing, cooking, baking, cleaning and the importance of hard work! There are so many amazing hikes that we got to go on after work or on our days off like the hike to South Lake, Green Lake, or Long Lake just to name a few. If you are interested on going on an amazing hike just ask anybody that works here and they would be happy to recommend an awesome hike. Whatever you are looking to get out of a hike, whether it be short and easy hike or a long and strenuous hike all hikes offer some amazing views! Now when it comes to fishing anybody here can offer great advice on the best spots to go to or what bait to use, especially Jared or Seth, they wrote a book together that is sold all over called Fishin' Trails 2. Jared specializes in spin rod fishing while Seth specializes on fly fishing and they are both just great guys to create conversation with because they have amazing stories to tell about their life experiences. I may be a little biased but the food here is really great! They only do continental breakfasts during the week days (Mon-Fri) from 8am-11am but on the week ends (Sat & Sun) there is a big all you can eat breakfast buffet from 8am-11am that offers amazing home made food like Quiches, French Toast bakes, Scrambled Eggs, Breakfast Potatoes, Bacon, Sausage, a Fiesta Scramble, Waffles and Fresh Fruit! Basically you wont leave Parcher's on an empty stomach before you head out on your hike or fishing adventure for the day. Lindsey and I are super excited to come back here whether it be to visit or to work again next season, but Parcher's Resort has not seen the last of us thats for sure! read more

Resort should be removed from the name. It's a group of cabins on National Forest land. Extremely overpriced. Cabins are filthy. No storage place for gear. Some of the cabins have views of the trash Dumpsters. Cabin equipment doesn't always work properly. Refrigerator is very small, and it was dirty. Dishes, cooking utensils had to be washed before we could use them. They had definitely seen better days. Camp dogs are allowed to run around all day unsupervised. Guests don't leash their dogs. Pooper scooping doesn't happen. Employees and guests do not follow bear safety protocols. It's like spring break all year, loud and noisy. Boats and equipment at South Lake are poorly maintained and filthy. Not staying here ever again. read more

I stayed at this resort from Oct 1st thru Oct 5th. This was the first time staying at this particular site. Based on the price I thought we would find a nice cabin to stay in. The first issue was no room to store our gear. I was staying in the room with my teenage son. The cabin was for four people. Considering the lack of any storage I don't know if that's possible. Especially when taking showers. You have to wait at least 45 minutes between persons taking a showers. Also there was only one shower rack. The shower control was extremely touchy and if you touch the handle while taking a shower you could be scalded with hot water, which happened to me. The dishes they provided looked like they hadn't been replace in awhile and the silverware tray was full of debris and the utensils were unclean to use. Luckily we brought our our dishes. The other thing that bothered me was we had to wash up and brush our teeth over the kitchen sink which was not very clean. I would not stay at this resort because this is not what I thought it would be regarding accommodations. I found a lot less expensive places in Bishop that provide a lot more amenities for the money. Be careful when you make a reservation from this resort. Not all the accommodations are the same. I have been coming to this area for the fall fishing with a group of Catholic Gentlemen for at least a decade. This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a review like this. read more

Thank you Parcher's Resort for an incredible time! My fiancé and I were looking for last minute cabins and we came across Parcher's and booked it. We go to bishop very often and we always tent camp but this time around the year it can get very cold and therefore, we decided to get a cabin and let me just say that from now on NO WAY I will be tent camping. We checked-in to Parcher's on Thursday and we got Cabin #5. Once we got to our cabin, everything was SPOTLESS. The staff did an amazing job cleaning and maintaining the cabin and it felt just like home. The staff there are also super attentive and professional. We had the best time at Parcher's and will definitely be back very soon! read more

We had a great time at Parchers and appreciated our little cabin. Prices are quite high for what you get, given we had no kitchen , which drops me to 4stars. Our cabin had a great location right above the creek. the overall vibe was laid back and Staff was friendly and helpful' with hiking advice. we didn't mind using our camp stove! (There was a fridge). we would stay there again to enjoy the great hiking in the South lake and Lake Sabrina canyons. read more

Paradise on Earth. Doesn't hurt that the staff are all laid back but still super helpful when needed. My only concern is that Parchers is such a perfect place that it will become impossible to find available dates there if word gets out about how great it is. read more

Got "stuck" staying in Parchers before starting a backpacking trip. Big wind and snow flurries made the decision to delay the trip easy. And what a place to "hole up". The crew there, from Carrie (who makes an AWESOME coffee cake, and just looks out after you like a family member) to Nick, who helped shuttle me from North Lake, where we left a car for the point-to-point trip we'd planned, back over to Parchers and is just a great guy, to Robert who was also amazingly helpful, to Seth, who shuttled us up to South Lake when we could finally get to hiking. I cannot say enough about that gang. Big thanks to all of them. Now for Parchers, it is just a great location with great cabins. We stayed in one of the backpacker's cabins, which was amazingly warm and comfortable. Just toss your own sleeping back down on the bed, and you're in for a great night's rest. From now on, any backpacking trip I start in the area will begin at Parchers. Can't wait to get more of that coffee cake and hospitality like I've never experienced. read more

I just came from a great four day fishing trip here and I loved it. This resort is not far from south lake which is stocked regularly with a variety of trout including brown, brook, rainbow and alpers, and is near a good number of well maintained trails that will take you to some of the most amazing lakes and streams I've had the joy of encountering and fishing that are heavily populated with a variety of wild trout and other fish. We rented the hikers cabin the first day and one of the larger mountain cabins for the remaining three days. The cabins were fairly clean and stocked with an assortment of dishes and pots and pans. The appliances were pretty beat up but functional, and the plates spoons and cups were a bit of a mishmash. If you don't like stove top percolated coffee you may want to bring your own coffee maker like I did. The cabins came with clean linens and towels. The beds were fairly comfortable. Our cabin was a stones throw from a fishable stream. The water system is fed from a local spring and was some of the best tasting water I've had straight out of the tap. They also use this spring to feed a small hydroelectric power system to generate the electricity for the campground. The power stayed on consistently until the morning of our last day there when they were having problems. Understandably they don't have microwaves and would likely discourage people from using hair dryers, etc. as to prevent overloading their power systems. On site they have a store that sells fishing supplies as well as a small assortment of groceries, t-shirts, etc. The owners and staff are very friendly. Their fishing supplies are priced the same as some of the better fishing stores I've been to and their groceries have the typical camp site price. There is a restaurant there where you can get eggs, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, burgers, sandwiches, etc. I only had a couple of meals at the restaurant. It's not gourmet but probably one of the better places to eat in the area without making the drive back to Bishop. There is no cellphone reception in the area. The nearest place I could get a signal was about 8 or 9 miles down the road toward bishop. There is wifi fed by satellite there which they don't really advertise. I didn't bring my laptop so I didn't try their connection although my experience with satellite service is that it tends to be slow and I wouldn't expect skype or any other VOIP service to work. They do have a phone you can use and they do sell inexpensive phone cards there. If you must you could likely bring your laptop and ask them to use their service but remember, you're on a fishing trip dammit! Get out from behind your damn computer and get some fresh air! The campsite is near the 10,000' level so figure on taking a day or two to get acclimated to the altitude. On our brutal hike to treasure lakes which had about a 1000' elevation gain over three miles we found ourselves walking over snow in late June! I still can't believe one of the hikers in our group did this hike in her flip flops with perfectly painted toe nails and insisted on hiking an additional 6 miles to and from bishop pass and long lake with half the group. The rest of us went back to bishop for a well earned pizza and a pitcher of the local Trout IPA. I would give this place 4 1/2 stars as there is room for improvement and updating of some of the cabin amenities, replacing oven racks, replacing the pots and pans with warn off Teflon, covering some dirt areas with gravel, etc but at the same time it deserves more than 4 stars for what it is, especially given the price. I've listed the price as moderate but if you check out their website you'll see it's on the cheaper side of moderate. I highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys fishing, hiking, or backpacking. read more

Perfection. The drive up was awesome and to be greeted by these folks was over the top. The whole staff was warm and friendly from the get go. Even in passing on their routes to maintain the resort they would wave with a smile of loud folk song. haha mostly about beer and fishin. We were a group of 10 loud, grumbly, 30yr old men looking for a place to decompress from he everyday life. Did we ever get a huge dose of that medicine. The location was nestled in between 2 flowing creeks that is fed by the local lakes. At night with the windows open you could hear the sounds of the streams...unbelievable. Fishing galore, wild animals all along the rocks and just pure seclusion with the ammenities of a small hotel. Talk about the investment of a lifetime...you luck owners! Breakfast buffet on the weekends is a killer touch with sundays being bottomless memosas.....note to self: they stock 9 bottles at a time. TEEHEEE!! Thanks Kim for being cool about that! They have a stocked store that will provide the basic essentials for your tip should you need milk, eggs, cheese ect. Literally the things you may not want to try to transport if your coming from afar. Honestly theres nothing they havent thought of to keep your weekend comforterable other than a huge spa for those cold nights. Fishing was jammin! Lake Sabina and South Lake were breath taking. South Lake yeilded a full 15 fish on out Sunday. It was so awesome for a bunch of inner city bitches to actually come home with a story of the monsters (1-2lb) that was caught. Were men, we like to blow things ut of proportion! Pssst....trout up there like the powerbait mice tails. To sum it up we all left with smiles and no complaints. Its a tremendous value for the time spent with these folks. To those who bitched and moaned about this place i have a simple solution to your gripes. Go to any place of business with a smile and positive attitude and watch the relationship grow. Come in with a pissy face and recieve the hex that affords you nothing but the plague from people. Parchers Resort makes it a point to be there when you need them and want them to be. They are not there to rub your nuts when you fall down and bump your knee. Thank you again Staff. It was a great journey. See you again soon! read more

Great spot! Stayed here in an awesome cabin that backed up to the river. Great fishing location. Caught tons of trout. Everything was clean. Had a nice bbq and fire pit. Tons of great hikes near by. Great service and friendly employees. We will be back for sure! Scott read more

Location is amazing! Scenery was beautiful. I was not excited about bringing my own blankets because price was high to stay in resort.

I discovered Parchers resort many years ago and have made a point of stopping in whenever I am in the area. The Smith Family has worked hard over the years with many upgrades completed from the time they puchased the lease. I have told Jarod many times to stop making it so nice.... LOL The cabins are well equiped and clean. The staff has always been pleasent to deal with. Fishing advise is freely offered. My Daughters have grown up and have better things to do now than go camping with Dad so I tend to tent camp or backpack more. Cabin 20 was my favorite and perfect for a family of four. Even when I do not stay at the cabins I drop by for supplies and a nice hot shower. 5 Stars Here read more

This place is what a cabin vacation is all about. This is our second year staying here. Last year we stayed 5 nights, this year we stayed 7 nights. The first picture is from last year, out our kitchen window of cabin 1. This year was cabin 6. Great private back deck, roomy interior for a small cabin too. No cooking facilities in this cabin, (several do have kitchens) but if you bring your camping stove, they do have a fridge, and it works perfect for us. The fire pit at this cabin has a great grill that fits a 7 lb bag of charcoal perfect too. Real friendly and personable folks running it, clean cabin, perfect location. Even though we are self sufficient coming up to the high country, I am certain that they would accommodate any request of ours within reason. The store by the front desk has all you might need in a pinch, and just enough fishing items that are the exact needs for the area being fished. Scenery is drop dead gorgeous, relaxing and just ideal for a week of R&R. Are we coming back?????? Yes, we will book a 3rd consecutive year, without hesitation. Just an all around great experience. read more

I stayed here for 3 nights. I fished Sabrina from a kayak all 3 days and caught a lot of trout. We stayed in Cabin "1" although the number in front is "7". It was small with cute fishing decorations and a full kitchen. It had a TV with a DVD player but no TV service or DVD's to rent or play??? The main activities are fishing, hiking and horseback riding. If you are fishing, a boat or other floating vessel is helpful if you want to fish the lakes. The water level is currently low at south lake and not easily boat launch able. They have a somewhat pricey breakfast offering but no lunch or dinner so be prepared to cook your own meals. There are lots of mosquitos but other than that, a great place, especially for trout anglers. I would definitely stay here again. read more

Parcher's Resort is in an amazing spot in the Eastern Sierras. The creek runs on both sides of the resort. The rush of the creek was so nice to listen to throughout our stay. The resort is close to 3 lakes: Sabrina, South Lake and North Lake. All 3 provide good fishing opportunities. It's also very close to picturesque Weir Pond where we saw several fly fisherman. That takes skill! However, my favorite type of fishing was in the creek where it crossed under the road nearby the resort. I especially loved the spots worn down by other fishermen. The weather never got above 78 degrees while we were there. Perfect. We rented cabin #26 which came with 2 twin beds in the main living area and a separate bedroom with a queen bed. The living area also had a table with 4 chairs and a rocking chair. I've heard that these rooms were recently upgraded. I couldn't tell how because the fixtures and the kitchen seemed like they've been there for quite some time. The floors were very creaky under our feet. That said, the cabin was exactly what we were looking for. The location was absolutely perfect. The views from all directions was pure bliss. I loved sitting out on the porch watching the creek below and looking out at the mountains ahead. There was also a horse trail below (the resort offers horse rides). They had towels left for us when we checked in and linens for the beds. No one ever came to clean the rooms or check on how we were doing at all during our stay. Not sure if that's always the case, but I expect so. The cabins came with plates, silverware, pots & pans. Everything you would need to make most meals. There was even an oven. The cabin got very cold at night. However, there was a heater to keep us warm. The resort had a fish cleaning station and a well equipped store carrying food and fishing supplies. We never tried their restaurant but the menu looked great. We rarely saw the staff members. This is really nice when the whole point of getting out to a place like Parcher's is getting away. But it also means you may have to wait before you see anyone at checkin or checkout. The wait wasn't too long though. I loved Parcher's and my family and I have decided to make our way back next year. We fell in love with the sights and sounds of such a beautiful area. read more

Wow - what a great place ran by caring people! Everything is clean and well stocked. (We were pleasantly surprised to find plenty of dishes in our kitchen!) As there are no TVs, Internet, etc. we decided to play cards but our game became too large for the chips we brought - the guy who runs the place was awesome and loaned us a Crown Royal bag full! HA!

We came stumbling down Bishop Pass with a storm on our heels after 5 days out in the backcountry, hungry and dirty as backpackers can be, the day after Labor Day when the kitchen had officially shut down for the season. Didn't matter--the manager whipped up tri-tip sandwiches with baked beans and coleslaw just for us--then showed us to a very reasonably priced, comfortable and serviceable backpacker cabin where we spent two nights waiting out the storm. This place is operated by people who know what it feels like to be in need of a hot meal, a good shower, and a sound night's sleep after time in the wilderness! read more

We stayed in Parcher's Resort cabin #23 for 3 nights in early June. The day time temp was high 60s, but there was still patches of snow everywhere-it was beautiful. Their "housekeeping" cabin was perfect for our small family and included a basic kitchen, queen bed, bunk beds and a bathroom with a nice, hot shower. Seth was so friendly and helpful with recommendations for our hikes in the area...especially needed because the unusually high snowfall over the winter was still causing closed/limited road and trail conditions. There is no wifi or TV on site, but you can get reception a few miles down the road. I thought this would be a drawback, but a few days off the grid was one of the most refreshing things I have done for a while. We saw a few other housekeeping cabin sites in the area, but Parcher's appeared to have the most beautiful, serene location of them all. I highly recommend Parcher's and look forward to visiting again! read more

We visited Parcher's for my boyfriend's birthday. We stayed in the beautiful cabin 6, tucked away abit from the main cabins and it was absolutely perfect. There was a corporate event going on, so the staff made an excellent choice in what cabin to give us so we would have our own little secluded getaway.. that being said we were just a 5 min stroll to the shop and restaurant. The cabin was clean, cozy, homey. The back door opened up to a gorgeous deck overlooking the forest and its own unique path down to a hiking trail. The beauty of this area was incredible and the availability of gorgeous hikes and fishing is endless. The staff were friendly, thoughtful, and generous. At the end of our trip we stumbled upon the Rainbow Pack Outfitters who offer reasonably priced, awesome trail rides. We decided to do a quick one before we left and it was excellent! Thanks for a perfect weekend, we will definitely be back. read more

Amazing staff, wonderful location! Ask for Jared, the Manager-he can help you get on the fish if you are a beginner or expert. Excellent trails and lakes within a few miles from the resort, don't miss the aspen colors in the fall, amazing! read more

Parcher's Resort will easily become part of our annual vacations. The staff is incredible and so kind and welcoming. And not to mention, very dog friendly! The resort itself is so cool...there are creeks to fish from just feet away from the cabins and lakes to fish as close at 2 miles from the resort. The cabins are super cozy and CLEAN. There is also horseback riding and nice hiking all over the place. I would recommend this resort to anyone who wants to get away from the city and relax and enjoy the beautiful land. Special thanks and shout out to Jocelyn, Carrie, Seth and Tim. Also to Ken and Marisa at the stables at Rainbow Pack Outfitters. You all made our stay memorable. Thank you!!!

Had a great stay at Parchers resort spent 3 days in a Hikers Cabin, it was a great and comfortable place. It served great as a base camp for Photography and Fishing, both were spectacular. Had only one experience with staff which was very pleasant at check in. Cabin was clean and they were basic kitchen implements that was a good supplement to my camping gear. read more

Love this resort. Adorable, cute cabins, beautiful setting. The owners and employees were so nice and don't miss the home made cinnamon rolls or coffee cake. We were there twice this summer as we loved it so much. I would give it a 5, but the cabins do need a bit of updating. Certainly nothing to keep us away. read more

Horrible service!!! While the cabins were newer and pleasant the service left MUCH to be desired. When we entered the office to ask about an early check-in we walked into a heated and sarcastic conversation between an employee (young man about 26 years old) and a customer that was checking out. It was awkward and uncomfortable. From what I could tell the patron was dissatisfied with a few items and the employee's "hey, I just work here" attitude seemed to agitate things. What we quickly learned was ALL interactions with this employee were this way. Including the next morning when we went into the cafe for breakfast and the place seemed nearly deserted. There was hot coffee, but no napkins, stir sticks, milk, etc. We were told that they didn't serve breakfast as they couldn't tell how many people would be staying with them and that it didn't make sense to pay someone to come in to cook. This is AFTER we were told upon check-in that their cabins were almost 100% booked for the weekend. Upon leaving we learned that the coffee and Costco pastries were not complimentary (as other resorts in the area provide). It was a little disturbing as there was no sign, no price list, nothing to elude that there was a charge for the minimal offerings that were there. We quickly experienced the attitude of the same employee that "greeted" us upon check-in and were told, "You're the only people who have a problem paying for coffee." When we explained why we thought it would be complimentary we were told, "This isn't the Ritz Carlton." Nice comment to start off our day. It is so amazing how one employee can do so much harm to an organization. When talking about our experience to others that day we learned that we are not the only customers that have had this experience. Many others have and refuse to go back.

There are other beautiful locations available in the area, run by people who truly make you feel warm and welcome. They will be getting our business from here on out. read more
