This place is such an amazing wedding venue!!! We recently got married here and had such a wonderful time with all our family and friends staying on the property, it was like our own little town for the weekend. The owner and staff were amazing and helped to make our wedding as perfect as we hoped! We enjoyed spending time chatting with her and getting to know what a great person she is, she is a part of our family now! We can't say thank you enough for helping making our wedding go off so well! The grounds were amazing with all the leaves changing and the ceremony and reception were picture perfect! The cabins were clean and well kept to keep our many days comfortable, it was hard to leave! Thank you Taryn for all your help and can't wait to come up and see you soon! If I could give 10 stars I surely would!

I'm updating my prior review since my latest stay here. The cabin I rented was nice, but when I got up in the morning neither the toilet nor the shower were working. Nobody was around to help out, so after I left I emailed the owner to let her know, and to see if there was a way to maybe get comp'ed somehow (discount for my next stay, partial refund... something) since really that's 90% of the reason I get a cabin. If I just needed a bed, I can bring a tent and cot. Anyhow, no response. She's told me the AirBnB's are killing her business...at $300/night for just me with nothing working, I can see why. I head up to CK at least once a year, and I've had decent experiences here in the past, worthy of four stars, but for the price and lack of maintenance I reluctantly have to knock this down and find somewhere else to stay next time.

The guest ranch is beautiful!! This is an amazing place to stay. The people are very welcoming and the rooms are cozy, clean and adorable! 10 out of 10! If you are ever in the area I highly recommend staying here! Very kid friendly and my daughters love it!

The lobby/check-in grounds are beautiful. In our cabin, the linens and sheets were very clean. However, when I pulled the curtains back to open the windows I revealed cobwebs formed between the curtains and the glass, around the sills, edges, etc. A lot of dusty cobwebs. I killed three spiders and two wasps within the first couple hours of being at the cabin. The kitchen counter had some questionable crunchies on it and the back kitchen door didn’t latch so it would blow open, only the storm door closed properly.
The wall mounted AC unit was not keeping up with the afternoon sun hitting the back side of the cabin all afternoon. The second bedroom was the farthest room from the AC and had no windows that opened. We did have a lovely view of our neighbor’s windows and deck from the back bedroom, which was unexpected to say the least. Unfortunately, this room also had the more comfortable mattress in my opinion. Even after turning off the AC and opening up all the windows after dark, it was warm in that second bedroom with no functional windows. My boyfriend slept in the front room to be cool, and I slept in the back room for the more tolerable mattress. Very romantic.
When we arrived the television didn’t work, which was expected, but there was a curious sign taped to the bottom of the TV. It stated due to issues with the satellite TV was not available this weekend per management. The owner had previously told us why there was no TV service and why she had removed the remotes from all the cabins, so this sign seemed deceiving.
The top of the coffee maker was covered in a dust layer complete with someone else’s fingerprints in it. I was allotted one coffee filter for a two-night stay. It was placed on top of the coffee maker held down by a Tupperware to keep it from blowing onto the floor. I lifted the lid and inside the basket of the coffee maker was more dust and a dead moth.
The place is dirty and we didn’t have a good impression of the owner based on our phone conversations, but we were still having a good time. We came to the conclusion that we wouldn’t be returning to these cabins, but there was no reason to leave a bad review. Maybe this place just wasn’t for us.
From the yard of our cabin on Sunday morning, we heard yelling in the courtyard and we immediately recognized the voice of the owner. Later in the day some guests shared some details of that conversation and I’ll just say we took the side of the guests vs the side of the owner on that one. The owner decided to have a similarly toned conversation with us later the same day. Long story short; the owner asked us to leave and we did. We were not the only guests who were asked to leave that day. We have zero relation with the other party that was asked to leave. I have never seen guests treated this way, and we saw it happen on two different occasions in one afternoon. Someone called the owner as crazy as a loon in her review and I’m not saying I agree with her, I’m just saying I understand why she might say that.
My boyfriend asked me not to leave a negative review because he sensed genuine remorse from the owner when he returned the keys to her. She apologized and even returned our funds. My thought is; I would be greatly disappointed to see anyone else spend their time the way we did, or be treated and spoken about in the way the other guests were. The owner asked us to leave and if she was genuinely remorseful about anything that was said, she could have asked us to stay; an offer we would have gladly accepted.

The drive here was hairy, for sure, but very scenic. Our cabin is rustic, but all the comforts of home. Son's wedding was the purpose of our visit and the owner was instrumental in helping set up and helping at the reception. Update: Okay, so the owner of this place is crazy as a loon! She upped all the prices on all the cabins rented out for my son's wedding. Try a two bedroom cabin for $700 for ONE NIGHT!!! It was listed at $300 a night. She ended up NOT making everything "homemade" as promised and brought in pre-made entrees. The breakfast the next morning was lacking on half the items promised...but still wanted to charge my son full price! I can not in all good conscious recommend this place for a wedding venue. Please, don't even bother as long as that loony bat is still running this place! She has harassed my son and daughter-in-law to death! Even threatened to call my granddaughter's school??? Yes, I saw the texted she sent! Look elsewhere...save yourself and your guest the hard feelings and heartbreak!!!
