The staff was good, it has kitchen, living room and bed room. However, it smell bad inside, no screen on bedroom window, the hot tub was not working, either too hot or fully cold, no water if set in the middle. Every furniture is pretty old. Will never stay 2nd time.

I didn't have to meet anyone which is a plus. It is a little expensive for what you get. Room was clean. Room is small. Don't expect luxury like vegas hotels. It served it's purpose for rest for the next day.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This stay is not worth the $200 dollars. The Hunters Lodge (the cabin/shed we rented) smelt so bad as soon as you opened the door, Behind the sliding doors of the bedroom where the washer/dryer are located, there was stuff stacked and super dirty. The type of place you didn’t want to touch or use anything. Did not feel safe staying here with my children. We arrived pretty late after driving all day and had the next closest place been available, we wouldn’t have stayed here at all. Highly don’t recommend.

The check-in process was rather clunky even though I apparently had submitted all the paperwork through Expedia. They needed me to fill out a detailed on-line document, including downloaded photos, which I had no clue how to do. Everything, including the pass key code, is high-tech and difficult for some to manage. As for the room, my only complaint was that using the toilet was an ordeal as a large-sized person could barely squeeze by the sink. The staff was wonderful and she happily helped me navigate these hoops. The food and service at the restaurant was outstanding. All told, it was a pleasurable experience except for a few glitches.

I stayed in the creekside cabin, which was a wonderful for some privacy and a little extra space. It's a cozy room, but big enough for a few folks. I was traveling solo for a job in Kings Canyon and loved the solitude with green nature out the door, and a good space to do yoga while looking out on the landscape. Keep in mind, there isn't much to cook with other than a microwave, so plan accordingly. Beyond that, I had a lovely time in this space.
