We have a river view room. The river is nice to listen to. Our entry and bathroom floor areas are a little dirty, but the sleeping area seems good. AC is working well. Hotel is non-smoking which is great!

Was fine because we only slept there. Not use to double beds but ok. Few lights and the one big one was out and fixed the night before we left after reporting it first day. Outside of rooms grounds/rocks had a lot of trash in them. But for price was fine.

Aptly named with amazing creekside views

Comfortable, no nonsense rooms. Outdated but cozy. The views are amazing from the balcony and the staff was friendly and helpful. We stayed one night an encountered a juvenile bear near the hotel entrance on the road, in the parking lot and by the creek. Be careful with food as he did try to break in a truck with food stored in it. We will be back!
