Host was great. There was an issue with house before we got there and they were great with communicating with us multiple days in advance. They gave us a list of options for equal quality houses and promptly got everything rebooked for us. We had a great stay. One of the kids even left a toy and they shipped it back to us for free.

Lovely Cabin by the Creek

We had a wonderful relaxing time at this cabin. The accommodations were beautiful and clean. We very much enjoyed sitting on the porch listening to the creek flow by. Our pup Pico enjoyed his stay as well!

Great Getaway

What a beautiful home! Waterfall Lodge far surpassed our expectations; the online photos don’t do it justice! All five bedrooms more than met our needs as they were spacious and accommodating. The family spaces were large and family friendly with the game room, hot tub, and plenty of entertainment!

Nice and Lovely Cabin with all the amenities!

We as a family always book a cabin for our Christmas get together, This home was everything we could have hoped for. Nice and spacious for all of us to enjoy being together or letting the kids do their own thing downstairs. Private and setting was ideal for what we were looking for. Highly recommend!!!

50th BIrthday Weekend

We had the best time at Waterfall Lodge. The cabin is beautiful, clean and so peaceful, There were places to hime, outdoor seating, a fire pit, hot tub, games, foosball, pool, video games, books, with so much to do you never needed to leave the cabin. 10 people in the cabin didn’t feel crowded. We have talked about making a trip to the cabin a yearly trip.

Beautiful property

We had a great time celebrating our mom’s 70th birthday at the Waterfall Lodge! Very well kept rental property and spacious. We needed all the bedrooms and one of the rooms downstairs was locked. We were able to get in touch with the owner quickly and he let us know where to find the key for the additional bedroom. Would highly recommend!!

A beautiful, spacious wonderful place to stay!

The waterfall constantly being heard as you stepped outside was our favorite part. The hot tub is wonderful, and the master bathroom is to die for! The kitchen was very spacious and we had plenty of room for around 12 people to enjoy a weekend here. I would recommend bringing an SUV for a more enjoyable ride, but it is just stunning! 10/10

Waterfall Lodge review

The cabin itself was beautiful, but there were a few minor things to address. The lake photos are unrealistic. Perhaps at a different time of year they are close, but our view of the lake swapping

David, So glad you enjoyed your stay at Waterfall Lodge, it's a gorgeous family-sized cabin rental!! We are sorry that you were disappointed with the setting, we don't advertise the pond and the only picture shows the the picnic table and hanging double swing with the caption "Beautiful covered setting to relax and gather", you can barely see the pond in the background. We are very careful about false advertising and the pond is very small and not mentioned at all in the write up or the amenities. It's typically a pleasant surprise for guests when they arrive, although we agree :) Have a wonderful day and we hope to see you again in the future ~ Mary

Family gathering making memories and reminiscing

The directions had a lot to be desired. The roads need better up keep. The sign for the cabin should be bigger and illuminated in the dark. Many u turns had to be made. Up the hill neighbors were great in guiding us, overall had a great time.

Childhood Friends Visit

Beautiful home/property!! Quiet and secluded, which is what we were looking for. Home could use updated bed mattresses. Also, we had to clean the patio furniture and decking because everything was covered in yellow pollen, and we wanted to sit outside in the evenings. Outdoor ceiling fans had no working lightbulbs in any of them. We did enjoy our stay, and would come to this cabin again.

HI Kristina, Thank you so much for the wonderful review. We do our best to keep the pollen from affecting our guests as much as possible, but it finds its way onto everything...even in screened-in porches! We hope you come back and stay with us again. Have a great day! ~Michelle

The cabin was home

We had the most incredible time!!! Please pay attention to the directions or you will get lost. I honestly felt like I was part of their family. I loved seeing their pics on the walls. It gave me a sense of connection to the home. The house had everything we needed and more. The property was beautiful!! I had no cell phone reception but honestly it was beyond amazing to be able to disconnect from work and the day to day hustle. Wi-fi worked fine.
