We all had a wonderful time at the cabin nestled in the pines. The lovely owner met us there for check-in and went through all our logistical questions. There is a refreshing cedar smell to the cabin and the amenities are very complete. I would rent again if I come back to Oregon. I give it a 10 out of 10 for satisfaction.
We really wanted to love this property. We were looking forward to getting away from the hustle and bustle. This cabin did that. Here are the pros and cons: Pros: Secluded Good size Dog friendly Very good wifi Left us local eggs and bacon Cons: 1) No A/C. We booked for 7 days. Could only stay 3 days because it was over 90 degrees in the cabin until 2am and there were fires in the area.. They had 7 fans in the house which circulated the hot air, but were also so loud we couldn't sleep. I understand that they can't control the weather, but I felt like they should have warned us and allowed us to make decision if we wanted to continue with the booking. 2) Photos are misleading- from the photos, we were expecting green area. We are aware of drought, but entire property is completely dry, brown, and not suitable for exploring. There were wasp nests at outbuildings as well. 3) Shower water pressure is horrible. It is close to a dribble. And rugs in bathroom are well-used. I stepped out of shower and feet feel instantly dirty from rug. 4) On the second day, when we returned to the cabin the house key snapped in half in the lock. The door area smelled strongly of wd-40 so I assume they were aware of some sort of issue with the door. 5) Also on our 2nd day, a wildfire started 25 miles from the cabin. The wind blew the smoke straight into the cabin. Because of the heat, we couldn't close the windows. We had headaches and nausea and made the decision to leave. Ron was apathetic. He said, sorry it's bothering you. Enjoy the rest of your vacation. We had to book a hotel room for that night (unexpected expense). And on that day, a fire started even closer to the cabin and still no offer from Ron for even a partial refund. 6) Lastly, as we were leaving I fell through a slat on the patio and scrapped my calf. There were areas that looked like they were repaired because of similar issues as well. I can honestly say this was our first bad experience on VRBO. Rent this cabin at your own risk.
A comfy rustic cabin. Plenty of room for a big group, and a beautiful, remote property. WiFi was surprisingly good. The hosts generously left us eggs, juice and butter in the fridge - a lovely touch. As other reviewers note, this is a good distance from town - about a 40 mins drive, and a solid hour + to Lake of the Woods and Wood River and Crater Lake. So if you plan to explore, expect to drive.
Perfect mountain getaway location. Beautiful views, gorgeous cabin ! Even adequate WiFi. I will definitely come back is I’m even in bonanza again!
Loved the location & atmosphere. Were greeted by the hosts which was great. Had all the conveniences needed. The fireplace was a plus. The Manwellers
We always feel at home and we love how they leave little welcome goodies in the fridge. It leaves a nice touch! Check in and check out process is easy, the property is secluded and it feels like our home away from home.
Nice little cabin off the main path but still close enough to go out exploring.
The stay was so wonderful and peaceful. There is nothing I can say went wrong . Ron was so attentive and at the same time respectfully give us our space. It was like being home but way better. Thank you so much for the peaceful vacation.
Great place to stay
Host was great with communication, cabin is roomy and cared for. We really liked the space. The acreage is fabulous and there is plenty of outdoor seating. Crater Lake was not as close as we thought.
