Floors & walls are very thin. Stay on the top floor! Don't let them tell you they won't put anybody above you. Someone will be put above youโ€ฆ You can hear every step.

This place is so cool. Thereโ€™s a lot of history and different parts of the hotel to explore. Unfortunately, most things were closed when we stayed (Sunday night into Monday morning), but we still got a chance to visit the bar. The bartender let us order, even though he was closing and then even took us to see the old hotel with the river that ran through it. We lost power for a few hours during the night, which was a bit spooky, but only added to the experience in the end. Now we have a great story to tell everyone. ๐Ÿ˜

Beautiful Lodge with the nicest Lodge Host / Management. Rooms are very clean, updated and very comfortable bed. The surrounding area is very beautiful and has a great downtown with wonderful shopping and eating. I was here on business to get away from the city and relax. Can't wait to come back and bring the family for a vacation.

This is a nice getaway spot. There is plenty ofareas outside for hanging out and the bar/lounge is convenient. There was a live salsa band there so that was a fun surprise. The room was nice and clean. I would go back.

A little outdated in the room but overall it worked out fine
2-night trip

8/10

We stopped here for 1 night on our Californian road trip with our 4 year old. We felt like the only people staying here!! The bar and cafe were closed (despite the cafe sign saying it was open...) and it seemed like the shop was opened when the proprietor felt like it (not open during advertised hours). Luckily we'd eaten in nearby at Boulder Creek Pizza & Pub, but we weren't able to get anything for breakfast. The old swimming pool would be such an amazing selling point if it was in use - it was a shame to see it locked away. The room had everything we needed, including a fridge & microwave, and the staff we met were friendly. Beware when exiting the car park - its a blind corner and we were very nearly smashed into when leaving. A mirror would be handy

Nice clean rooms. Easy parking. Little convience store on site. Live music on the weekends. Great place to have fun and unwind in the Santa Cruz mountains.

Hoping you are able to build up business after remodeling to restore this wonderful scene. I came often thirty years ago. I miss the dining room and hope that you can make this a full resort again. I see you are having music every weekend, that definitely helps! Enjoyed El Sol the other night, and there is a huge contingent of Salsa dancers in Santa Cruz. Loved the spa tub.
