They list prices they don't honor. Very bait and switch then offer a higher price with a faux doscount as though it is a concession. Very unscrupulous and grifty. read more

Only stayed one night. It is now called Sageciffe Resort and Spa. Stayed here about 5 years ago when it was still called Cave B. Details in room not taken care of. Very expensive for so many issues. (Just under $500.) Went to our room and greeted by a huge pile of bird excrement! Also splattered on the door! Inside, a blind was broken, a curtain missing, someone had started to paint a beam and probably realized that was a mistake and stopped. No internet in our "deluxe" view with a king room. Would not stay here again, unless a complete overhaul in maintenance and internet services. read more

One of those places you just have to see and experience. Try this on for size... middle of the desert...it's overlooking and next to the Columbia River... and the columbia River Gorge... Glorious, I MEAN unbelievable, GORGEOUS sunsets, de-VINE dinner (get it.. it is at a winery), unique tasty wines, next to an amphitheater (btw *** I need to book a room here the weekend Journey is playing), perfect / comfortable rooms (soaking tubs and it smells like a spa), outdoor pool (almost infinity like), more wine, romantic orchards to stroll, hiking trails, sage bushes everywhere. Cave B is like a "get married or buried here" kinda place... fall in love and walk straight into heaven. read more

Not like the Winery or the Restaurant. The Cave B Inn is beautiful. Greeting was luke warm at best. Front counter people on their cell phones and talking to their friends while customers are at counter. Subpar service at best. Not worth the money based on service. Much needed quality control. Not very welcoming. The new owners need to up their customer service and understand the quality of people they are in service to. Hiring a real General Manager with Customer Appreciation and Service Experience is a must. Staff must be trained in elite customer service. Motel 6 service is not acceptable in a beautiful place like this. Loved the Winery great staff and amazing wines. Whom ever manages the restaurant understands the value of the customer. Thank God I found out the winery and the Cave B Inn are not the same owners. $100 million dollar facility means nothing with $.50 service. Missing value, appreciation, and comprehension of taking care of elite customer that can afford to stay there. read more

Missed the mark: Awesome views, pretty good wine, but not a fan of the resort/restaurant/condo. Lots of little annoyances that added up to a not so enjoyable stay. They don't have signs or trails to get around the resort, so expect to get lost, especially if you show up once it's already dark. Resort has dusty, gravel paths, your feet get dirty if you're wearing sandals and walking around. Our condo didn't have: a closet to hang any clothes, nor hangers, nor an ironing board. Power went out/ circuit blew somehow and we had to call maintenance (we weren't cooking or doing anything odd). We went to get the continental breakfast on Saturday morning. Which costs $22! When we arrived there was barely any food left. The wait staff seemed understaffed. We decided not to spend $22 on a bagel and fruit so opted to wait 40 mins for the lunch menu to start. We came back at 11am to order the lunch menu and it took them 40mins to make 2 burgers, which were mediocre. We were pretty much the only people in there at this point for early lunch, so really shouldn't have taken that long. Dinner was good but overpriced IMO. Service was better at dinner, but nothing amazing. I wouldn't stay here for a pampering 'resort weekend'... but would maybe stay for a concert weekend instead of camping at the gorge. I heard there are new owners, hopefully they can work out the kinks. read more

View is awesome but do not expect the quality of food or service to match. The food was Dennys quality. The "special" Ahi was seasoned so much it tastes like a porkchop. The chicken was dry and clearly cooked by someone who just didn't care. No robes in rooms, the soap and shampoos are fastened down?? $500 a night and they are worried we are going to steal their marginally ok shampoo?. Not one single person at the hotel, spa, or restaurant seem to care about providing anything other than average service. It's like a Motel 6 or holiday Inn express with a view. read more

I Made my reservations on March 1st to visit on August 8th thru August 11th. This was for our 25th wedding Anniversary! We arrived and was told that we were being moved to one of the Condo's located at the far end of the Resort. The Resort had bumped us because they said the Company promoting the weekend concert reserved all the Cliff houses, starting August 11th! He said I could stay Monday & Tuesday but would have to move to the Condos for the 3rd night. I asked them why the other people couldn't stay in the Condo on the 11th instead of us having to move. He said because they have priority! I did not appreciate how we were treated and Needless to say we cut our trip short and only spent 2 nights! read more

We had a wonderful stay in a stunningly beautiful location. The hotel rooms-Cavern rooms-may have the best view overlooking the river. Our room was clean, with expected amenities such as lotion, coffee pot, mini fridge. No robe & we didn't care! We ate at Tendrils restaurant for some of our meals. We ate leftovers for a couple meals. Neither the cavern rooms nor the cliff houses have kitchens. You'll need to stay at a Cave B Ridge condo in order to cook. The food in the restaurant is good-to-very good. We had an American hamburger (split it between the 2 of us) and it was so good. The omelette had a massive amount of pepper. Their homemade granola is really good and came with a huge amount of very fresh and special berries (strawberries, blueberries, huckleberries (!) All portion sizes are large. They are changing chefs, so look for reviews by visitors after April 22, 2021. The staff were professional, helpful, friendly and COVID-19 compliant. If you want to treat yourself to a very special location along the Columbia river, this is the place to splurge. Go in Spring when the desert is blooming. This amazing complex of hotel, cabins, restaurant, pool, yurts, spa and winery-just steps away - is the awesome creation of Carol and Vince Bryan. I only wish they had some photos showing the building of this property. read more

We had an absolutely lovely stay here this last weekend. The service was always friendly and prompt, the food was delicious (I will be dreaming about the Steelhead for weeks, I'm sure!), the drinks were tasty and strong, and the views were unbeatable! We stayed in one of the cliff houses, and it was immaculate and very comfortable. We got to bring our dog and he very much enjoyed the scenic walks and dog-friendly appointments. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five, is that the steps leading down to our cliff house are very craggy and uneven, and poorly lit (though the lighting they do have is beautiful!). I ended up tripping on the crags and breaking my foot (side note: I recommend Quincy Valley Medical Center for your bone-breaking needs!) I now need to have surgery :( Other than that, would absolutely stay here again! Oh, and to respond to the scathing review left by Kim H., there absolutely are restaurants within 25 miles, if you're willing to look for them and not just sit in one spot and complain. read more

We stayed out here a couple weeks ago in one of their cliff houses. The original owners put in such thought when they built this place, it's so beautiful and amazing. It has since been sold twice and now owned by an ex-Amazonian it seems. A guy from Quincy who decided he'd move in to the resort business. Check-in was great, staff is super-nice, super-helpful. I know when someone opens a high end place out in the boonies sometimes it's very hard to find good staff, but they've found some wonderful folks out there. Kudos for that. Location: As we looked around at the place it does seem to be kind of going downhill. You look at the sidewalks and they're falling apart in places. Look at the walls and ceiling of the main lodge and it looks old and parts missing where they shouldn't. Things are stored badly and in view of customers. The closed pool area looks really crappy, like somewhere you'd never want to swim in the first place. Kinda gross, and no reason. They should have winterized it in an orderly and nice looking manner. It seems they lost their long-term maintenance person and whoever is doing it now may not have that "resort-eye" needed for a place like this. They definitely need to step it up in that area. Food: Well this was a mixed bag for us. We reserved two nights for dinner and were so excited but our first night we realized this really isn't a high end restaurant it's more middle of the road. I'm so happy they brought in what appears to be a local gentleman as their chef, but the problem is I don't think he has any outside experience at a high end restaurant and only knows what he knows, which is mediocre food. The cocktails were not that great, seemed very low end and inconsistent. Even the ice and glasses were different when we ordered our second round. They didn't seem to have any high end top-shelf choices so we were disappointed that we couldn't drown our sorrow in good alcohol :-) I will say however that the eggs benedict was pretty good and what I had each day for breakfast. They ran out of coffee both mornings immediately so we had to wait a LONG time for coffee on both days, and weirdly enough the half and half ran out each time I went to get a cup. One morning they got it instantly then next it took them 10 minutes to get it and the new coffee. The second night we sat out in the lobby and they had a great country singer. It was fabulous. We got to talking with the restaurant manager, a really super nice dude. Just retired from a previous career from the County and was hired to run the place. He really is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet and has amazing customer service. Only problem I see is that because he's never worked (I'm guessing) in a high end restaurant he doesn't known the in's and out's of running a high paced restaurant. Having said that, I in no way think that's a bad thing per se, because everyone there is great and trying to do a great job. But things like running out of coffee, half and half, people kind of standing around not know what to do, lack of consistency in food and drink presentation. It's like he just needs to go to a week-long class or mentoring of a well run restaurant. After he gets that, I assure you it would be top class. He just doesn't know what he doesn't know at this point. But I certainly think they have the right people. They also allowed one guy to transfer from maintenance to the restaurant recently. What a GREAT guy, I forget his name. He already has that knowledge around customer service at a nice restaurant mindset. He was so great and pleasant and quite frankly one of the reasons we stopped there the second night. Atmosphere: Like I said, the place is amazingly beautiful and walking amongst the vineyard on the grounds was great. The views are second to none, anywhere. The walking trail down to the river is also amazing. Side note, we have never been to the Gorge Amphitheater and were really looking forward to getting a birds-eye view sneak peak over the fence. What a shit-show, excuse my French. I'm sure it's a great place to see a concert but what a shame that it's turned in to a heap of crap, random buildings on this beautiful setting. As stated earlier, the grounds look a bit like they're falling apart. Not sure if that's a function of the owner just not having anyone who's been in the resort business or them just not caring overall. We absolutely loved the Cave B Winery up the road a bit. Hung out there both days after our hikes down around the bench and river. What a great place to chill. Their story is so incredible. We'll head back this summer, we hope. As long as they don't raise the prices too much. That's a long way to drive for a lot of money for that place as beautiful as it is. Next time I think we'll bring our own food for dinners, grab a bottle (or two) of wine from Cave B, hang out at the back deck/porch area and enjoy the scenery for the evening. read more

Stopped by for lunch on our way to Spokane with the family. This was our first time here with kids and during the colder months. It's still gorgeous! The restaurant kids' menu provides affordable options. I noticed new owners today and hope they continue to keep the same vibe and quiet environment here. Anel was our server during lunch. I remember her from my last annual visit here in July. She is always smiling and so positive. They're lucky to have her here! Bonus: Tasting Room allows children! read more

This place is getting a horrible review because of there customer service Stayed at the cave b ridge was informed it was part of the cave b inn and we welcome to use all amenities including pool found out it was not and was going to be $50 a person to get in the pool we had 4 people with us asked if they could give us a break in the price and was denied immediately. Bare in mind this is a Monday there was no one at the hotel or condos and the front desk and staff was very unpleasant And I think $50 a person to get in a pool is outrageous when the condo pool isn't even built yet they should accommodate when your sister place is cave b ridge Whoever is managing this places need to leave customer service cause having a beautiful resort but awful customer service is not going to want people coming back read more

On the plus side, the grounds are beautiful and our room with a view was spectacular. We stayed in the Cliffhouse and it's gorgeous! On the downside, once you are there food choices are severely limited and the Tendrils restaurant at the resort is the only option. And the restaurant is overpriced with food that can only be described as mediocre at best. So 5 stars for accommodation and 1 for the restaurant and food choices at the resort. read more

This place no longer deserves four stars. Maybe it did in 2005, but in 2019, no way is it worthy of the four stars nor the high price. We stayed 6/18-6/19 for our wedding anniversary. CONS: * Confusing signage to where to come when you first arrive. If you follow signs to check in it states permit parking only. There are multiple parking areas, although most are not labeled. The confirmation email should have included instructions on where to pull up to check in, and then the parking areas should be paved and clearly labeled. We parked in an area that looked more like a path. By the next morning there were two other cars so we either started a trend, or we discovered the parking area. * At check in they said we needed brunch reservations; repeated it 3 times in fact. We made them for 10:30 the next morning. * They said they saw our dinner reservations, and I reminded her we are vegan, and she said yes it says that. She should have mentioned that when she noted our reservation. * We knew it was by the Gorge, and made sure there wasn't a show that night, but you can still see the honeybuckets as you drive to park. * When we walked to the cliffhouse there were weeds and marks on the door and old birds nests (cliffhouse 12). Hardly a good first impression. * There was only one chair outside with a small table. We called the front desk and they had someone come down and first bring an outdoor dining chair, and then he went and grabbed another lounge chair after my husband pointed out the cliffhouse that had five. This should have been done before we were in the room. * We had only two bath towels, that may or may not have been from 2005, and two pool towels that you need to bring with you to the pool. For four stars and the price there should be towels at the pool. * I mentioned the pool when we checked in; when we went there 1 hour later the card reader was not working, and other people in the pool area (who were nice to open the gate, but were vaping and listening to music) let us in and said it had not been working and the front desk was aware. The front desk should have mentioned this when we checked in, and also had a way to prop the gate open, or have someone there. * Back inside the room, the curtains are heavy and difficult to use. For four stars they should be automated with a sheer layer, and a black out layer. * The showerhead was difficult to figure out, and clearly we are not the only ones who had this issue, as it was sort of busted and 1/2 the water was pouring out from the middle of the lever (see picture). * The TV remote was not working, and I called the front desk multiple times and finally left a message. We assumed it was batteries, and then walked to the front desk to get new ones. There was nobody there and we waited and waited. Finally went back to the room and realized the flashlight batteries were the same size. This did not fix the TV remote, which sort of sometimes worked if you were right up next to the corner of the TV. * Someone named Amber was still logged into Netflix; if you have apps on the TV they should all be logged out between guests. * The room itself is really dated, and has a lot of chipped paint. * The faucet for the sink comes out about 2" from the edge of the sink which does not work well. Come on people! Test things out. * The mattress and box springs are CLEARLY old; I felt springs through the mattress and my back hurt the next morning, not that I slept as it was such a bouncy bed because honestly it's trashed. The mattress pad doesn't fit anymore. * The next morning our brunch reservation - which WE HAD TO MAKE oh my god it's a random Wednesday in June for godsake make a reservation - was not entered. Did not matter as there were maybe five other people in the restaurant. PROS: * The views. * Kevin the waiter at brunch was very nice. * Amber (unknowingly) let us use her Netflix account. Thanks Amber. read more

From the time my husband phoned Cave B and talked to Sarah about making reservations to the close of the evening tonight we have been happy customers. The Yurt accommodations are lovely, the views spectacular and the pool ever so relaxing. Kelly greeted us by the pool welcoming us and was helpful with information. Sarah remembered us and was professional and friendly.The only honest feedback I can add is the front desk lacks knowledge of the resort, spa and surrounding activities. However, we will definitely stay another night and come back to stay. read more

The resort has separated from the winery, and is no longer named Cave B, but rather Sagecliff. We booked a yurt for one night, and spoke to someone on the phone at the time in order to make a dinner reservation. That night we were sat in a corner against a wall away from all of the view windows, and were the only patrons in small, uncomfortable chairs. It wasn't the end of the world, but odd considering we had made reservations and there were empty view tables. That evening, a wedding party played extremely loud music until 11pm. When we called the front desk to ask when the quiet hours started, we had to leave a message because no one answered. They called back at 10:45 and said they would make a note about the disturbance. When we checked out at 8am, they didn't mention our issue with the noise level, and charged our card the full amount. When we asked about the previous person's suggestion that there would be a note in our file, we were told that they saw the note, but didn't have any way to do anything about it. I asked to speak to a manager, but there was not one on duty. I asked to have one contact me at their convenience, but haven't heard anything. Whatever is happening during this transition, I'd steer clear. If you want a relaxing spot to star gaze, I hope you love Abba and The Spice Girls at extreme volume as you take in the view. The beds were comfortable, although covered in dirt stained coverlets. read more

We go every year. Beautiful place! I know that there has been a change in ownership for the Inn. The customer service is sub par. They need to step up there game. They ask you to let them know any concerns you have right away. My husband did so and instead of trying to fix the problem they told him it sounded like they couldn't make him happy. We went to the restaurant and they wait for food was over an hour. They told us they only had 1 cook and. They also had one staff member running the bar and serving food. It is a very busy weekend for the area. I hope they improve things. The winery and tasting room get 5 stars. (Original owners). The wine account manager is great. We spoke with her personally. The gentleman who helped us with the tasting was great too. read more

Somehow someone crawled inside my unconscious mind and designed a retreat spun from every wispy imagining of what a perfect moment here and there might resemble were they to coalesce into an earthly whole.... Walking through vines, kicking up bits of dusty gravel. Basking in the sun until just-beading with sweat, cold wine glass balanced on the arm of the chair. Wrapping up in a robe and standing barefoot on the terrace in the dark watching the moon and the tiny lights edging the winding paths through the vineyards. Standing in the shower with an open door and a view of the river and bluffs. Soaking in the tub with a light breeze coming through the eye-level window and watching the stars. Hiking down to the riverbank, watching the low bunkered buildings disappear behind the cliffs. Reading with wine and The New Yorker in front of a fire. Falling asleep, hearing nothing no matter how hard I tried to listen. Everything, all in one place. Perhaps my heaven....After only a scant twenty hours, I felt like a newly rejuvenated person with a store of lovely images and restful moments to keep in my mind on return to the real world. I imagine the time would be less restful in the busier high season, or during a performance at the Gorge next door, but I can already say I can't imagine a nicer spot to visit next March around this time. We stayed in a Cliffehouse (a freestanding large studio space, with fireplace, luxurious king bed, flagstone patio, and decadent bathtub); there are fifteen of these on the property, some with two bedrooms and all arranged facing westerly toward the Columbia River (about a forty-minute hike away). The Inn also offers cavern rooms (the most private views, as they sit at the edge of the property), a couple of suites in the main building itself, and a collection of yurts just south of the Cliffehouses. We spent the afternoon resting, reading, and drinking wine in the sun...and after a break for dinner, spent the evening doing more of the same (except without the sun this time). And in the morning we went for a hike down to the river; there are a few hiking options on the property, fairly easy to do aside from a few steep descents/ascents as a bluff edge transitions to a plateau and vice versa. It's a dog-friendly property, so although we didn't bring ours with us, we probably would plan to in the future to truly enjoy being outside, and to let him bask in the sun along with us. Since Tendrils is the only place to eat in the area, and since it's pricey (even though worth it for a nice dinner with the view it offers!), next time I plan to bring some of our own food with us. There's a small refrigerator available in the room, certainly big enough to keep supplies for a cheese and/or charcuterie platter, or some other prepared food. A picnic outside of your room (or really, anywhere on the property) would be a must on a warm-enough day. If you want a getaway that's a quick two and a half hours from Seattle, and quiet peacefulness, and just enough luxury to let you fully relax without feeling too extravagant, Cave B is somewhere you ought to think of going. I'm thinking about it again already....It'll be like coming home to somewhere I was always supposed to be. read more

Did you know that this fabulous winery is right next door to The Gorge Amphitheatre? If you didn't, and you're not already at The Gorge, be sure to call ahead and make sure there's not a concert happening on the day you want to come for a visit. Otherwise, you'll probably get stuck in a whole lot of traffic. We were able to walk over from The Gorge's RV Gold campground and spend part of an afternoon sipping delicious wines and enjoying a spectacular view from the sunny patio. The wine tasting was only $10 for generous pours of 3 whites and 3 reds that rotate frequently (possibly even daily). Most of Cave B's wines are on the dry side, so absolutely perfect for my taste. Honestly, there wasn't a bad apple in the bunch of our wine flight. I bought a bottle of the 2014 Unoaked Chardonnay and the 2014 Dry Rose to enjoy with friends during the rest of my stay in Washington. Apparently, each state can decide if it will allow out-of state alcohol shipments to individuals and, luckily, Colorado will allow Cave B to ship to me. So I expect to be tasting more of these yummy wines sometime soon! A variety of accommodations are available at Cave B for overnight stays. Choose from Cliffehouse, Cavern, or Inn rooms, Desert Yurts, or even overnight parking in your own RV. Glamping tents are also located just outside of the winery gates and just inside the Gorge campground during concerts. Be sure to take a hike down to the Columbia River during your stay. The trail is steep and somewhat rocky, so be prepared with the correct footwear. Afterwards, take a dip in the pool. Or actually, you know what, skip the hike and just do a massage and then lay by the pool sipping wine. That will most certainly be my agenda when I come back to Cave B for a weekend getaway. read more

This place sucks. The only good part is the tasting room. Apparently the original owners sold the hotel business to folks who have zero experience with hospitality. The overpriced "brunch" was pitiful. I preferred the Hostess Donnettes that I picked up at the gas station. The refrigerator is warm & the bathroom is flooding - for $425 per night. What a ripoff! read more

Cave B Inn & Spa - Resorts Near Me - Quincy, Washington

My husband and I came here to rest and relax (we have a two-year old so any opportunity for extra sleep is eagerly awaited!). We were not told that there would be a wedding with heavy (and inappropriate) rap music playing until midnight. It wasn't possible to fall asleep until almost 1am with the noise outside. The inn is located in a beautiful area, but the spa experience was just OK - I've had much better massges, the restaurant service was poor (we waited 30 minutes before ordering our food), and the lodging experience was terrible. There are much better spa resorts in WA for the same $400 price. read more

Everyone raves about this place so I had to go see what all the fuss was about. Besides, any place that Dave Matthews and his band books out every year for Labor Day weekend had my curiosity piqued. Upon arrival, a black lab greeted us at our car, as we pulled our luggage out. She followed us into the lobby and waited while we went through a smooth check-in. We had asked for an early check-in, so while the person at the front desk went into the back to make the call into housekeeping, we stood at the front desk for a few moments, taking in the scenery. The light fixtures hanging from the ceiling are some of the most beautiful I've ever seen--grand, modern "chandeliers" next to a gorgeous grand fireplace--and windows everywhere to see the amazing view of the Columbia Gorge. In those few short minutes that we waited, at least four Cave B staff people walked by the front desk and asked us, "have you been helped?" I love that type of customer service--when everyone treats you like you're a VIP. We got the cheapest room in the place--a room in the Inn--and the dog led us up to our room. The room was beautiful--granite countertops in the bathroom, slate tile, a shower for 2 people, a flat screen TV with leather couch, oversized chairs, and then a dining room table with chairs, plus a mini kitchenette. I didn't see what the other reviewers complained about: there is creamer inside the fridge in the room, and we didn't see any Cheez-its or other grime in the place. There were two terrycloth spa-like robes hanging in the closet for guests to wear, as well. You can bet your bottom dollar we took advantage of those. My only complaint would be that the bed is a full sized bed--I think it's been so long since we've slept in a bed that small, that it's always a little disconcerting when you're back in one--but it still had luxury bedding, down pillows, etc, so it was comfortable. We went to its restaurant, Tendrils, to have lunch. I had the smoked chicken cesear and I swear I might have had a little "o" right there in the restaurant--I can't believe how amazing that smoked chicken was. I gave a bite to my husband to see if he felt the same way--and we both did the same thing after the first bite--we exclaimed, "ohmigod". It was incredible. And only $12. You can't beat that. The view is pretty--Quincy is more of a desert area--so it's pretty for a dry area--but the staff is always good about seating you at the next available table with the best view. We weren't as impressed with dinner--dinner was overpriced and underdelivered on taste and portion size. But then again, there are only one or two other options in the entire city for dinner--so we ate all three meals at Tendrils. After lunch, the dog (we learned her name was Cuvee--which is a name they give wines that are a blend) scratched at our door to let her in. We opened the door, and she let her self in, plopped down on our floor and promptly went to sleep for her afternoon nap. We laughed and giggled. Then, a few hours later, she got up, and pawed at the door again to let her out. That's when we decided to go wine tasting up at the tasting room. The wines were pretty good--we were particularly impressed with the Rose, and we're not Rose lovers. Also: during the tasting, half way through, the bartender poured us a white and said, "now, you have to guess what this one is". It was on the sweeter side, like a Riesling or Gewurtzaminer--but we knew we had already tasted those and a Chardonnay--so we couldn't figure out what it was. That's when he told us it was a Chardonnay--unoaked. If you ever have a chance to try an unoaked Chardonnay do it--it's a totally different flavor than any other Chardonnay I've ever had--and it's good. The bartender told us that more and more wineries are making their Chardonnays this way now. After finshing tasting wines and eating dinner, we went back up to our room to settle in for the evening. Around 8pm, we heard a scratch at the door again--once again, that sweet dog wanted in our room. We just loved it! She crashed out on our floor again--and we found ourselves an hour later calling the front desk and saying, "apparently Cuvee has made our hotel room her residence for the evening." We couldn't stop giggling--we love dogs--so what a wonderful experience to be at a hotel where it felt very much like we owned one and had brought her along on our vacation! Next day we got up and did a 3 hour hike, following a path from the hotel. Cuvee was our guide--she led us every step of the way. When we got back, the lady at the front desk said, "how was your hike?" And when we said how great it was, and how Cuvee was such a great companion, she said "yes, some of our other hotel guests have been asking about where she was--but I told them that she tends to latch on to a couple and wants to spend every minute with them until they leave--so I guess you guys are that couple this weekend!" read more

My wife and I were in a bit of a bind and needed a place to stay. We already had reservations at Tendril and we figured that we would check to see if Cave B had any rooms open. The lady at the front desk said that they did have a yurt available at $433 for the night. Not really having an option, and thinking my wife and I deserved a little luxury splurge, I agreed to it. We opened the door to to the yurt and were less than impressed. A rather large ant ran across the floor in front of me, but no big deal, it is nature and ants will find their way in. I quickly got rid of the ant. There was a black blanket on the end of the bed and when my wife lifted it up, there was a lot of dirt underneath, as well as a long hair and what I believed was a wolf spider (after google reverse picture search) and some other unrecognizable bug. I quickly captured both in a glass. According to the check in sheet, it says that we are in nature and if we encounter any wildlife we should contact front desk and a wildlife expert will come to remove the issue. We call the front desk and the a little while later the front desk lady came to the yurt. She didn't want to go near the cup as she said she was afraid of spiders. She told me that all she could offer me was a bottle of wine, and she would get me a business card of the general manager, so I could email her, and left. She left both the nasty blanket and the bugs in our room and we had to put them outside on the porch ourselves. We waited a bit for her to return with the card and bottle of wine and she never did, so we walked down to the restaurant to get our dinner. I went to the restroom shortly after being seated and walked up the the front desk to ask if the lady left the business card in the yurt, and she seemed confused, so I started to explaining that she said that she was going to bring me a business card so I can email the general manager, and she said "Oh. yeah" and gave me the card. We were seated immediately, and waited for our server. He was very nice and professional when he came to us, but it took him nearly 20 minutes to make contact with us from when we were first seated. In that time I found an empty water bottle in the bushes that were touching my chair. I could tell he was swamped and working hard, but he still did everything he could to give us proper service. My wife ordered a cocktail and I a glass of wine. We had to send the cocktail back as it was way overly sour and not drinkable. Our waiter apologized and offered to correct it. We opted just to have it taken off the bill and drink wine. For appetizers, my wife ordered the baby beet salad, which was delicious, although a little heavily dressed, and I ordered the frito misto. The frito misto was a bland, extremely soggy and greasy mess on a plate, even the dipping sauce didn't add much flavor. I only ate maybe 1/3 of the plate. My wife ordered the gnochii, for her entree and was very disappointed in the sauce that it was served with. It once again was very bland and not exciting, you can buy a better sauce in a jar at the grocery store. I ordered the spider steak with blue cheese sauce. The steak itself was okay even if slightly over cooked, but the mashed potatoes were very lumpy, and the vegetables were extremely over cooked. We took the rest of the bottle of wine and headed back to our yurt. My wife went and showered, and when she came out, she told me how almost painful the shower was. When I showered, I got the same effect. It is like the shower head needed to be de-limed or something. The water came out like pins and needles and was not relaxing in the least. Over all, for the price that we paid for that yurt the luxury level should have been higher. Most places for those prices would include a complimentary wine tasting or bottle of wine in your room, a dining or spa credit or something. But nothing at Cave B. We are highly disappointed and feel that we were taken advantage of and regret that we stayed at a place that has been on our list for a while. I had email correspondence with the general manager who agreed with the validity of my gripes but offered very little to make up for the fact that we spent so much money and had such an incredibly disappointing stay. read more

In all of our travels, we have never spent a worst and more aggravating night anywhere than our 34th anniversary get away spent at Cave B Resort and Spa. If I could give a 0 I would. A more relaxing night could have been spent at a one-star hotel underneath a freeway overpass. AND DON'T believe the travel brochures that boast a peaceful and relaxing retreat under the stars. If you enjoy belligerent, loud and obnoxious neighbors, the ones that believe that rules apply to everyone else, then Cave B is the place for you! After checking in, we headed down to the salt-water pool, which promised an amazing view of the gorge as you soak in the natural pool. We were quickly chased out by the rude party animals that were smoking their stogies and drinking beer out of glass bottles in the pool and blasting their boom box. While we understand that a resort cannot control their guests completely, this incident is notable because the maintenance cart was driving up the hill away from the pool area as we were walking in. We can only assume the maintenance crew chose to ignore the posted signs as much as the guests were. If the pool is something to savor, we wouldn't know - we couldn't leave fast enough. I felt for any guests that had children. Our pool experience made our dinner experience all the more unfortunate as we sat next to a group that were arguing (to the point we were worried it might come to blows) the merits of the NFL response to TBI. Again, we acknowledge that a dining venue cannot always control the behavior of their guests (although they can control the amount of alcohol they serve a group,) but the tenor of this resort was becoming evident. As we retired to our YURT and after reading the resort borchures boast to the natural wonder and beauty of the area under the stars, we were drawn to the literature that reminds guests to conduct themselves in a quiet and respectful manner in order to be considerate of fellow guests. We learned the hard way that although we paid dearly for this "wonderful and special experience", we were clearly not as valued as a wedding party DJ that played horrible rap and head banger music until AFTER midnight. The DJ may as well have set up his speakers in our YURT with us!! The literature for the resort declares 10:00pm quiet hour. We called down to the front desk at 10:15PM and were told the wedding party had "rented the space and there is nothing to be done." We called the front desk again at 11:20PM and were again told the same thing. At 12:10AM when we called we were told the DJ should not be playing anymore because it was after midnight. The DJ was definitely still playing! To say we were disappointed is a gross understatement. We won't get to re-do our 34th, and we will definitely not re-do Cave B. read more

We just came back from our stay and loved it. We bought our stay on Living Social for a one night stay in one of their cliff houses for $200. Great deal. There was a $100 dining credit then $50 spa credit.... Awesome.!! AMAZING views of the columbia river and tons of hiking trails. It was perfect how close it was from our hometown of Yakima which we loved if we wanted to come back The cliff house was beautiful! Everything was clean and felt cozy and romantic. My only complaint about our room was the tub which I was looking forward to taking a bath in drained when it was full and there was no hot water. I was super bummed out about that. But it was a comfy stay! We ate dinner at the restaurant and had the 5 coarse meal. Which for the amount that was paid was just ok to my taste. I understand everyone has different likes so I would still recommend it. It was plated nicely and looked great but I wasn't super satisfied. I think out of the 5 courses I only enjoyed the Asparagus soup. The complimentary breakfast was just ok too as I normally eat light so it was fine. Other recommendations would be to bring bottled waters, snacks, blankets to use when relaxing out side as it got chilly, and hiking shoes for hikes. Overall I would come back to Cave B. P.S The WINE was amazing too! Bought 4 bottles try the Rose and Cavewoman White!! read more

Came in here on our way to Spokane because we heard the views were beautiful and not only was that a huge under exaggeration but the winery was also found to be a gorgeous place with very accommodating, knowledgeable, and friendly staff. Upon our arrival there was a wedding going on so music filled the air, it was country music, but still music nonetheless. We walked in to the main building and were promptly greeted and ask if we were here for the tasting. We quickly said yes and headed to their attached cave, which is a pretty cool feature that I think most buildings should have. In the cave we tried three of their whites and when we were finished we went back out to the main room and tried three of their reds. Although the six wines are already picked out for tasting, the staff at Cave B were very generous and allowed us to try a few other wines and engaged in great conversation. After our tasting we were told we get to keep the wine glass and the tasting was only $8! We decided to get a glass or two of wines that we haven't tried yet and set out to explore the wondrous natural beauty of the surrounding scenery. I honestly was blown away. The weather was perfect, slightly overcast and cool and the views were expansive. We strolled through their vineyards, by the pond, past their hotel bungalows and yurts, and found a nice grassy spot in which we could enjoy our wine and the views. We sat there for what must've been an hour, just looking and honestly I could've gone for a few more but unfortunately the place was already closed and we had to pay up. We walked back and paid our dues, buying a bottle each not because we felt we had to but because the wine was that good. I got a bottle of their Barbera and I am excited to show it off to my sister who is a wine-o and see what she thinks. It may be a bit out of the way but please, check this place out, if not for the views, then for the wine and the friendly faces who work here. This was one of my fondest memories from my recent trip to the area. read more

I'd been hearing about Cave B for years. It sounded so fabulous. So took my daughter there for a little 30th birthday get away in October. Unfortunately, this place is living off a no longer deserved reputation as a 4-star resort. Dirty, dingy and poor service are just the tip of the ice burg. We arrived around 1:00 knowing we likely couldn't check in yet, but were planning on hiking anyway, so it wasn't a concern. But went to check-in just to let them know we were there. A bored millennial at the front desk who I'd obviously disturbed from constant contact with her phone was neither welcoming or helpful - bordering on rude. Her first words (please apply snotty tone here) were "You can't check in yet, its not time". The interaction did not approve from there. The beautiful art installation hanging above the lobby fireplace was so filthy it was gross. I booked a room in one of the 'cave' buildings. It's essentially a building built too close to a dirty rock wall. Not really cave-like at all. Rather disappointing, but I could have lived with that if it weren't for everything else. The furnishings were shall we say 'well used'. Broken down rattan chairs that were literally falling apart, chipped and dented tables. If you didn't know the venue you would have guessed Motel 6. The bedding was also old, frayed and dirty with some kind of yuck spilled down the sides of the bed. Ugh. The carpet...I won't even go there. The stains on the one elderly white fabric chair in the room were also off-putting to stay the least (can you say 'uh oh, someone barfed?') The bathroom door wouldn't close. So if you enjoy your privacy, this is not for you. We had reservations for dinner at Tendrils. The prices say 'high end' the ambiance does not. It's a cafe. The food - saying it wsn't good doesn't do it justice. My daughters gnocchi were dense gummy globs of boiled flour floating in a tasteless red sauce. My seafood and pasta consisted of 3 tiny clams, a shred of crab, and the worst scallop I've ever tasted. Also dressed in another uninspired flat watery tomato something sauce. Our waiter couldn't be bothered to visit other than to take our order and plop our food down. He was not to be seen or heard from again. We had to ask another waiter to take our payment. And you can only order Cave B wines (which did not go on my 'must buy this again' list). We tried to visit the tasting room and after being ignored by the staff for over 15 minutes, we finally left. $900 for two nights on an uncomfortable bed in a dirty room and seriously horrible staff was not what I had in mind. Not only do I not recommend Cave B...I'd strongly urge you to spend your hard earned dollars somewhere else. read more

We recently rented a cliff house for a special celebration after selling our home. We were very disappointed with the room for the price. The bed was the worse bed I have ever slept in. The pillows were so cheep that we had to drive to a Costco an hour away to buy new ones. The furniture in the rooms was very worn. For the price I would have expected higher quality. The restaurant is the only restaurant close by and is very overpriced. We also we not told you had to make reservations previous to your stay. I am understanding that things are limited due to covid however I would expect that the room would have been a lot higher quality for the price. read more

My husband & I had a very enjoyable time over the last three days at Cave B Resort. Our room was very nice, clean, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the view was spectacular. The restaurant's food was delicious, and we are picky when it comes to eating out. The wait-staff were particularly pleasant and efficient. We had a great time in the tasting room with Tia. Not to mention, Cave B wine is pretty good! We had no issues at all. read more

Horrible. We had not been to Cave B for a number of years. We were excited for our stay as part of a longer road trip East. We were called at 10:30pm the night before our arrival to learn the restaurant in addition to pool and spa would all be closed. We understand during Covid precautions need to be taken. We were told we couldn't order carry out until 8 pm as there was only one cook. We had reservations ( made a month in advance for 6:30, it was curious that our take out could not be ordered at that time? We arrived to a room that had not been updated for 10 years! It was the same as our visit ten years earlier. (dents in walls, chipped paint, soap scum all over the shower, grass clippings all over the furniture outside, dust on the floors, TV broken, a broken fridge ( upon check out we learned it froze all the items we added the night before) among other disappointing issues. We went to order carry out ( there are no other restaurants for 25 miles) and were given our spaghetti in a cardboard box, cold and my husband cracked a filling ( on spaghetti - ugh what was in that!). We were told we could not sit outside to eat at the 30 empty tables. Our family member stayed in a yurt - no hot water, see through towels, no heat and no bathroom amenities. We asked to speak to the manager- upon arrival she was gone at 4:40 for the day. We asked to have her call us - she did not. Upon check out we asked to have her call ( no call). When we did finally connect we were offered a discounted rate. On a positive note: the winery staff was great. I would NOT recommend staying here! read more

I made mistake in booking an AirBnB in the wrong location. I booked Cave B Condo unit 5A and was supposed to be close to Mt. Baker. (I know dumb move) While the people at AirBnB were not very helpful. Charis & Matt were very helpful and understanding. They were able to help me with the process. While they didn't have to help me under the AirBnB rules they still did. While I did not stay here, I can say that the team was courteous and understanding of the situation. The next time I am in central Washington I will most definitely plan on staying here. 10/10 - For communication and understanding by Charis & Matt at Condo Unit 5a read more

This review is about Yurt experience and hotel staff: 1) Hotel receptionist was absent when we came at 10pm. We had to wait for 20 minutes until a bartender? found her. The staff sometimes doesnt wear a uniform so it is hard to say if they work at the resort. 2) Yurts are great in terms of construction and experience you get watching stars at night right from your bed. However cleanliness of yurts is not worth the price, and definitely shouldnt be named as a resort. 3) Bed sheets felt dirty and not fresh. We had spiders in the bed crawling on us. Killed 1 in bed, one got away, and 2 around around the yurt. 4) The concrete floor was dirty, be prepared to bring extra pair of shoes or flipflops to walk inside. 5) Window frame was dirty as others are pointing out in pictures. 6) Mouse traps behind the walls and you can see dead animal skeletons in there. Gross! 7) No-one came to clean our yurt throughout our 2-night stay. 8) Our friends complained that their heating system wasnt working well however ours was ok. 9) Wifi is horrible - barely enough to check email. Be prepared to tether your phone's internet. 10) Some trash and cigar butts outside of our yurt. 11) Be prepared that they charge daily $15 resort fee. To summarize: the management is horrible that they are not watching their staff. They built a great resort but unfortunately, the overall experience you get is horrible due to untrained, highly incompetent staff that is unwilling to work. read more

I think everyone should sleep in a yurt at least one in their life and Cave B delivers. The yurt was a nice balance between modern amenities and... well... being a yurt. Think concrete floor, fabric walls, a comfy king bed and a proper bathroom. I felt like we got good value for our money in opting for the one night package that included the chef's tasting menu, breakfast and a bottle of wine. With a wine tasting on location and a sweet view, this was a great place to spend our 10 year anniversary. This is gonna sound elitist (this is gonna be a funny pun, you just don't know it yet), but the average rating for this place by Yelp Elites is 4.5 stars. I don't know what we see in the place that everyone else doesn't... maybe there just haven't been enough visiting to run into some of the bad experiences here. Just give it a shot. read more

An amazing destination tasting room! From the creative setting to the excellent wine - must see when wine tasting in the Quincy area!

What a lovely experience. My boyfriend and I stayed here two nights. I wanted to stay somewhere in which I would feel like we were in the desert, and that is what this place offered. We stayed in an amazing room (in the "Cave like cavern") with an awesome view. I loved that we could see so much from our room. The room had wonderful amenities including a soaking tub, shampoo/conditioner/body wash/lotion bottles (regular size!!), a standing shower with a great shower head, a TV with lots of TV watching apps that were easy to use, and a Keurig machine with K cups and sweetner/creamers. I love that they also had swimming towels that looked different than the bathroom towels so I didnt get those mixed up. The pool was clean with a great view as well, and customer service was friendly both at the desk and on the phone. I also liked that the Inn had complementary K Cups, creamer, sweetner and cookies that we could take back to our room (we drink a lot of coffee!) The only things I thought could be different was that the signs to get to/out of the resort were confusing and parking options were slim which made it a little difficult. Also, our deck was not private which kind of freaked me out. If I was just out there sitting, I could not see the rooms next to me. However, the deck was joined with one of the neighboring rooms and I could have eaisly walked onto their deck or visa versa. This made me uneasy. Overall though, it was an amazing stay! read more

Wine tasting review! Stopped by Cave B before a concert at the Gorge--given how close it is to the amphitheater they definitely are used to such crowds and even curate a short wine list for each concert. $10 for tastes of 3 reds and 3 whites in their "cave" area isn't a bad deal at all! All the tasting wines were phenomenal. My favorites were the chardonnay and malbec. A little sad that they didn't offer glasses for all their wines--specifically I wanted to try the ice wine. As for keeping the wine glass... sweet talk a little bit and you might get away with it. read more

This time visiting Cave B was a disappointment compared to the other times we have visited over the years. Rumor had it, that Cave B sold the yurts and hillside rentals to another company. I think that rumor is true. We stayed in a yurt which are normally fun and a wonderful, nice clean experience. This time it wasn't. We get there and yard workers are all around. They're gathering piles of leaves and BURNING THEM RIGHT BY THE YURTS. (I have attached photos to this review). Smoke is blowing into the yurt and it was beautiful out and we wanted to sit on the porch and drink wine... Inside the yurts there were bugs everywhere. It looks like they didn't even clean the yurt and we had to make homemade fly catchers for the fruit flies. Pour a little wine into a glass. Add a pump of soap and add water to make it soapy. We ended up catching 17 of them in 2 traps we put out. Never have we had so many bugs before. It's like they have the doors open to let them in? In the past, they used nice bath products. They have now switched over to bottles they just continue to refill. It looks like refill bottles from a gym. Also, all the bottles were mixed up. We had 3 hand soap bottles... One actually had what i believe was lotion in it and another with conditioner and then one with soap. The 4th bottle said conditioner but had soap in it. Pretty dissatisfied with the whole experience. They went from a wonderful upscale experience to clearly cutting costs by taking away the experience and atmosphere of the location. Also, they have switched there k cup coffees to only Hawaiian blend.... Sorry but i don't know anyone who loves Hawaiian blend. I think they got a screaming good deal on the K cups in order to save on costs but look like they're providing an upscale experience. read more

Lots of issues with the room including a bed visible from the parking lot, a toilet that runs, and a noisy HVAC system that rattled the roof. All together a bit disappointing, but when I went to the front desk at midnight to ask about the HVAC, guest services promised an alternate room that just needed cleaning. So I went back to the room to pack up and waited around until 1:00 am, only to check back to find out there actually wasn't an alternate room and they never bothered to let me know. That's just too much for what it costs to stay here. read more

This summer I am celebrating my 30th birthday and it just so happens John Mayer is coming to the Gorge. I told my husband for my birthday I wanted to go to the concert and stay at Cave B in one of the yurts. I called and asked if they had any available and the lady on the phone said "yes we have a ton available." So I booked for the 1 night before the concert, Thursday night with check out Friday the day of the concert and even made a dinner reservation too. This was on March 1st. I got an email confirmation and everything from them. I get a call 2 months later with a message saying that there is an issue with our reservation. After calling them back I learned that their "system made an error" and that we do not have a reservation after all. Apparently we were not the only ones this happened to. As it turned out, our friends who booked their hotel room shortly after us, got the same call. So after going back and forth with the Operations Manager, she offered to pay for a room at the Best Western in Ephrata or the Holiday Inn in Ellensburg -OR- if we wanted to pay more we could stay at Suncadia....um no thanks. I booked Cave B for a specific reason...to stay at Cave B. I told her I would talk it over with my husband and get back to her. I called her the next day to tell her that we just wanted a refund but I couldn't get a hold of her. I left several messages to call me back but never did. Finally I just said refund us on the last message and they did, however I never heard back from her to even tell us that they refunded us. I am extremely disappointed with Cave B and feel like this is a cover up for something bigger...like some big shot who wants to come over for the weekend to see some concerts and just threw a bunch of money at them to make it happen. I have never heard of a hotel who told me on the phone that they had "tons available" one day to suddenly "sorry our system messed up and you don't have a reservation." Sounds like you need a different system then. read more
