babbling brookThe cabin was clean and functional, but I felt it overpriced. For $150/night all I was getting was bare bones accommodation. However, the next morning, I spied a mother duck with her ducklings paddling down the stream just off our cabin's deck. The sweetness of that scene more than made up for the lodge's utter lack of charm.2 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALL

QuietIt's just north of "down town". Stayed there a couple times, and relatives have too.
No bells and whistles, but easy to get to, and no traffic in the cabin area. Water pressure is a bit low. Place is fine though, within walking distance from Scopazzis.1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALL

Little-known gem, quiet, on riverThe San Lorenzo Valley is actually in the mountains, between San Jose and Santa Cruz. It's a stretch of about 20 miles, spanning four towns: Boulder Creek, Brookdale (real small, but featuring the famous Brookdale Lodge), Ben Lomond, and Felton.

The cabins smell and are filthyThe cabins smell like old old socks. The little kitchen areas are filthy...old tin foil around the burners, towels that saw better years 10 years ago, you have to check out by 11am and they charge whatever they feel like. The place is filthy, and at $150 a noght I'd expect a heck of a lot more. Depressing!2 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALL

Perfect serenity!I love these cabins. They are very cute and clean. They have little kitchens that you can cook some meals in. The surrounding trees and the little creek are very serene. It is wonderful for relaxing. I plan on making another trip this year with my entire family.3 of 3 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLServiceCleanlinessLocationValue

thumbsdown merrybrookCabins are run down, musty and hot. Do not go in mid-summer (no air conditioning or fans). There are 0 amenities that one would expect at this price point. (Our room was $220 a night!!) Ohhh... cable TV! How about some shampoo in the bathrooms, maybe even an extra roll of toilet paper? You can also look forward to taking all your garbage out ...3 of 6 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulSHOW FULL REVIEWOVERALL

quaint and calmWe discovered these cabins on on a day trip and the owner was nice enough to let us look inside the cabins. We've been back several times. Even though it's not too far off the main road, it is very quiet, surrounded by large redwoods, with a wonderful creek running directly behind. Perfect place to stay if you want to go to Santa Cruz or Felton coming from the Bay Area. The cabins are clean.You have found this review helpful.7 of 8 Yahoo!
