Very unique setting and facility was nice. Virtual no service though. No coffee in the morning. you are completely on your own. Only talked to owners twice and only to say hello. If you want seclusion and privacy, it was great.

Misleading. Walked in met by the owner, which me my wife and our baby were not aware would be there. Felt like we were in a scary movie. Told us not to get the bed wet. We walked out and got a regular hotel. Terrible experience. Plus it’s in the middle of nowhere. Giant potholes to the dirt road leading up. Nothing against this guy, could be a wonderful person but we’re not staying.

The place has incredible potential with minimal effort on the part of the owner/manager. Would recommend renting a cabin at Jedediah State Park instead (better price and a better experience).

Don’t book here!!!
Incredibly rude owner and staff. The booking didn’t lost no dogs—when we showed up they refused to let us stay. The verbally said they would refund us for the mix up and then never did. They are money hungry and rude. Hotels.com was just as rude and money hungry.

Nice location in the middle of the forest, but inside was run down, had a musty smell, nobody was there, it was very unwelcoming. The sheets and towels did not feel clean, we didn’t want to touch anything and brought our own pillows. The place was cluttered with too much stuff, it felt very uncomfortable.

This property has tremendous potential, and perhaps before the pandemic, this was a sweet bed and breakfast. Our stay was safe, but we left swiftly in the morning. There was no hot water, so we could not shower. Although the log home is stunning structurally, it is sadly peppered with an eclectic collection of dusty nick nacks and silk flower clumps. The property has piles of flee market finds and old toys scattered along the side of the home. The owners do not allow guests to be in any of the home’s common areas, although the rooms have patio areas to use outside.

Unanticipated Night with Nature: BATS at ROOMs
Upon arrival at Redwood Log Cabin, the ambiance and design suggested a comfortable stay. Unfortunately, the entire area was facing a power outage. While this isn't inherently the hotel's fault and we truly understood the challenges of uncontrollable external factors, the sequence of events that followed left us quite astonished. As night approached, our room, shrouded in darkness, became the playground for a colony of bats! The eerie experience of bats flying around made it impossible for us to stay. It felt like an unsolicited night with nature, and while some might appreciate a close encounter with wildlife, it's not what we signed up for in a hotel room. To compound our dismay, despite the unique circumstances, the hotel management refused to provide a refund. An empathetic approach or some form of compensation would have been a more appropriate response, especially considering the unexpected "roommates" we encountered. While the power outage wasn't the hotel's responsibility, the presence of bats certainly raises questions about their maintenance and safety protocols. Additionally, their unwillingness to address our concerns with a refund or compensation was disappointing. I'd advise potential guests to think twice before booking, unless of course, you're keen on a batty adventure.

It was a nice home feel in a cabin in the woods. Quiet, other than being able to hear other people throught the cabin. You can lock your room while your in there but if you leave you cant lock it behind you. Parking was a little tight but manageable. Comfortable bed and couch in the room. No tv due to the open sound throughout the cabin. Overall it was a nice stay.

When we arrived it was dark, there weee no lights anywhere and the place was not kept. The grass and weeds were at least three feet tall. This led us to believe that they were not in business and we left to stay somewhere else. We apparently cannot get a refund of our $118.00. I would recommend Travelocity remove them from their offerings. Very, very disappointed!!

I reserved a room here, but did not end up staying. It is on a gravel road and no one greets you when you arrive. You go to the second floor and look for your name on the door. It might have been a very nice place, but I chose not to stay.

The place is charming but neglected. The carpets are caked with hair and animal fur. There's junk laying around everywhere. My shower was broken (only hot water, too scalding to use). It's unfortunate, because I imagine that this place was once quite nice.

Comfortable enough, but not what I expected.
I think this property and home are too much for the owner to handle. It’s a bit rundown, most of the building and grounds are not open to visitors, and the interior decor does not have that “rustic log cabin” feel.

We couldn't stay in this cabin due to the musty old smelling oder. Although it had high ceilings, the air was stagnant. I would not recommend it to anyone. My husband and i were looking forward to a relaxing experience in the Redwoods. The facility has three upstairs guest rooms, the room we booked had its private bathroom with walk-in shower. There was a coffee area outside of the bedrooms. It had a large shared living room and front porch, but cannot comment on the rest of the house since we couldn't remain inside due to the smell. There were several area rugs stacked on each othere that appeared old, most likely the cause of the musty smell. This could be a very nice family getaway, but first needs deep cleaning and getting rid of rugs! I can't comment on bedding, since we didn't stay.

Untrue. Our rooms cleaned and sanitized. We even refuse smoker guests and not pets friendly. No smell at all.
