A cozy getaway immersed in nature. The amazing log cabin combines quaint and modern, offering both communal comfort and privacy. We stayed in the Heritage Sweet off the loft and enjoyed the comfort and beautiful view of the lakes and forest. When we arrived, we were greeted by Lily and Rory (the family dogs) who were both very gentle with my 2-year-old daughter and offered endless entertainment. Brenda is an amazing host and an exquisite cook. She made us a delicious salmon dinner when we arrived in the evening, complete with homemade apple crisp for dessert. In the morning, after filling us up with a lovely breakfast of farm-fresh eggs and home raised sausage casserole accompanied by fresh coffee, juice and fruit, she took us out to see the animals. My daughter was thrilled to feed the deer, chickens, pigs, cows and horses and was even invited to collect eggs in the evening. During the day we explored the property (river, trails and meadow), took a day trip to Pacific City and enjoyed conversing with Brenda and her family. Sunday morning, we woke up to the elk herd on the front lawn. We had another amazing breakfast and deer feeding session before saying our goodbyes. We made sure not to leave without a few dozen fresh eggs and home-made jam from the ranch. We then headed down the road to hike the 1-mile Niagara Fall trail before heading home to Salem. We had an amazing experience and will definitely be back, maybe this summer to stay at the campground Brenda is adding down by the river.
