"Great place to stay! It was nice waking up in this charming cabin with the sound of the creek right outside the door. It was very nice having someone (Modesto) on site to answer questions and give directions. Modesto even recommended a fruit stand when I told him that I was looking for fresh and delicious fruits and veggies. "
