Very clean and quiet. The room was large with a patio view. I would suggest the hotel give directions so that people don’t take the gps windy road to get there

Don't let the outside fool you, although it looks a little run down the rooms are nice and very spacious. Get the room with a balcony and you can enjoy some fresh air without worrying about anyone looking in your room :)

This is a nice stop for exploring the redwood forests of Henry Cowell and other State Parks nearby. It’s nestled in the redwoods in small mountain towns. It’s not walkable to other places. The lodge rooms are large and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was clean.

Loved the historical context of this place. You can tell it had it's good times and now is aged out of much of it's glory. Some rooms were better than others. We stayed Monday and Tuesday so the lodge was closed. The view from patio was nice from top but kind of loud. It was a decent place to stay for a couple nights to see the area.

This is definitely a quaint option but so cute for the area and rooms were very clean. Front desk staff were very kind and helpful. Walls were thin and could hear neighbors walking around very easily but to be expected in an old building. Would stay here again.

Wonderful quiet historic setting. Short drive to some unique restaurants. Reasonably priced. Nice patio or balcony. $50 a day extra for a small quiet dog is a bit steep but still a fair price. Close to Santa Cruz and San Jose by car in the Redwood forest...heavenly!

This is an average motel with some maintenance and staffing issues. We stayed two nights and the first night was fine but when we came back for the second night, we found the soggy towels still on the bathroom floor and the beds unmade. I didn’t expect new towels and sheets, but I did expect some basic freshening up. Front desk says that only happens after three days!

I booked this lodge to be off the beaten path and quiet and it was cool. There is a store and bar on property (bar on weekends only). The room was clean and comfortable. It had a little balcony that was nice to sit and relax on. The hotel was only a 15 minute drive into Santa Cruz. The staff was friendly and helpful.

No cleaning service. Check out websites. Can make a huge difference in payment. We’ve stayed here before and we were so looking forward to our return. Neither my husband or I did no
