Loved the character of the place: a throwback to the 1930s with cabins, vintage cars and memorabilia, but with modern amenities. Fhsh & chips at the Blackswift Bistro was the best I've ever had.

We liked our historic cabin. It was clean and comfortable and the restaurant on site and coffee counter were great as this is in a relatively remote location. Great access to Johnson Canyon hike!

The bungalow is very small and not much room for luggage. The restaurant is nice but the hike into the canyon in mid September was way too crowded

Cabin was rustic but nice. No air conditioning. Restaurant on site was pretty good but pricey. On same property as Johnston Canyon. It was nice to be able to hike Johnston Canyon in the evening when it was not crowded.
