Great Stay

This was the 4th stay at Kohl's Ranch for my wife and I. We really like staying here. We have been staying in a cabin on the creek. The cabins are roomy and have a large deck with a great view of the creek. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is a nice bar with good food.

Nice, quiet in the mountains and forest. Staff was very friendly and helpful. On-site restaurant was very good. The only downside was the availability of breakfast was only on Friday-Sunday, probably a seasonal limit.

We love staying here. It’s better if you have more time to explore the property. Everyone is so nice and they have so many amenities. The creek running through the property is an experience you cannot just get st any hotel.

Nice cabin, lack of playground

The cabin was nice amd clean. We have always enjoyed coming here. However years ago they took the playground down. And after a few years they finally put one in onky to half way suit a baby. My 6 and 8 year old couldnt even slide due to no slide or swing as it onky favored babies. We have loved coming here but the lack of play ground is very disappointing. The lady at the front desk thought i was trying to break into a cabin because i walked all the way up there while my husband waited with the kids for me to get new keys. This new management is very strict unlike back when we went years ago they were so understanding and come to know us as we came up twice a year. Now we just feel like strangers. They even were hard to get a hold of for more trash bags as they only gave us one.

Excellent Stay!

This was our fifth stay in the last two years and we were again amazed at how much we enjoyed the Resort. The Staff is always great to work with and the grounds are always kept perfectly manicured. Our only wish is that the restaurant and bar were open thru out the week and their hours of operation were more consistent.
