5 Stars for Nancy, Best Customer Service ever!…read more Coloma Cottages is a private resort on the river. There are a few different cottages you can rent, we were in # 6 Riverhaus. Two days prior to arriving you will receive an email with current info on how to check in. You will basically text the manager, Nancy, 30 minutes prior to arrival to get your code for the security gates. Once you enter she will be there to greet you and get you settled in. The Riverhaus is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage. You have a front porch under the roof with a couple of benches. There is a living room with a couch (pulls out to a bed), a fully stocked kitchen of pots, pans, utensils, plates, etc. The kitchen counter has seating for 2, but there is no actually dining table inside. The bedrooms are small but have comfortable beds, and the bathroom has a small counter so there is not a lot of room for stuff. Great water pressure though! There is an a/c unit in the living room and TV's but no service. There is Roku in the bedroom and DVD's and VHS tapes to watch in the living room. Good wifi thoughout. There is a small back porch with a table and 4 chairs to eat at and it has an umbrella. There is normally a charcoal BBQ that you can use, however because of the fire risk being high we were not able to BBQ. There is also a laundry room on site if you are staying longer term. You are on the river, and there is some access, though it is rocky, no beach area Positives: *Nancy! She is wonderful, super great personality and always willing to help *Kitchen has lots of items in it, I did not feel like I was missing anything *Beds and pillows were comfortable *Great water pressure Could have been better: *We did not know about the not being able to use the BBQ so we spent money on charcoal and food and then could not use it. I wish the email sent out 2 days prior had told us this. Thank you Nancy for providing excellent customer service, you are a blessing!

This place had potential if we weren't nickeled and dimed for little things... First off, there…read moreare 8 pages of rules and policies (font 12) that you'll need to read which we read with a highlighter given previous Yelp comments. And yes, you will be reminded at every communication that you need to read them. Including a text the day before you check in. If you ask any questions, they'll send it to you like you've seen in other Yelper's reviews. Unlike hotels or AirBnBs, be aware that the rate is for just 2 people. They will charge $50 more per person. We had a little one with us and we were charged $50 more per night. (And yes, they will meet you at check-in to make sure you don't bring extra people!) Our cottage had a queen bed and a sofa bed. Presumably with the extra charge, we would have been given enough towels and linen for 3. Nope. There were towels for 2. And the sofa bed was a bare mattress with a throw without a sheet. We didn't complain since we brought our own linen. Despite being charged a cleaning fee of $50, know that you will still need to haul all of your trash to a trash bin 50 - 100 feet of your cottage. As other Yelpers have mentioned, the place is tired and old: filthy floors, dusty baseboards, tight shower knobs, weak AC, broken porch light... The deck didn't have the nice furniture that was in the photos. Yes, it's river front but getting down to the river is treacherous with many jagged rocks and makeshift steps - exercise caution with kids and elderly. There are no banks, just jagged rocks. We were here in April and it is very, very buggy - lots of mosquitoes and big flying bugs were found in the house every night. Just one screen door. No screens on any of the windows or front door. Beware - they are sticklers with checking out. We left the cottage on time but decided to take a few last minute photos near the river. After paying $2000 for 2 cottages for 3 nights, we were charged - after Danika / Sherry gave us a discount - an additional $25 for not having left the premises on time! We would not recommend this place and certainly will not be visiting again.

None of the…read morethings that apparently happened to the negative reviewer happened to my 12 year old daughter, her 70 year old grandmother and I when we stayed there in June of 2013. The cabin was pristene. My mother in law is a stickler for cleanliness (like way, way overboard) and I was nervous about this but she was delighted with the accommodations. The hot tub was crystal clear when we arrived (by the way, I am pool and spa certified, nationally, and you never change the water between uses or guests... that is ridiculous. That is what chlorine, bromine and filtration systems are for. The grounds were so secluded and private, we never saw another soul (except for the horses on the adjacent pasture and a few deer). There simply wasn't a single thing lacking. The owner called us once, just after we arrived, to ask if there was anything we had wished was provided or that we forgot to bring, and to wish us a happy stay (as well as for my daughter to come up and feed the horses if she would like). We never heard from her again. The price was unbelievable for what you get. Like, I thought there must be some mistake. And deposit/cleaning was simply not an issue. I do tend to pride myself on tidying up any place I stay on vacation, as I myself have occupied the thankless (and well under-tipped) profession of cleaning up after people who wrongly believe that they can make as big a mess as they want simply because 'someone else is paid to do that'. Someone else is paid to scrub the toilet and wash the floor, strip, wash and replace the linens and wipe away all traces of your visit. They are not expecting to heavily scrub after a careless trail of filth. I've never had a deposit withheld. Perhaps it's a good rule of thumb to tidy up after yourself. I loved Walker's Cabin - so much that a conversation more than three years after my stay with a couple gal friends prompted me to look it up and see if it is still available for rent. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat - and for me, that includes round-trip flights from Seattle and a decent drive in a rental car. Absolutely worth it.

I went to the front desk four separate times during normal business hours and never once found it open. I had a time-sensitive question and was unable to get help, and calls to the front desk also went unanswered. On our last day, we needed assistance locating the dump station. When we went to the front office, there was still no one available. We also encountered other guests actively searching for staff and unable to find anyone, which makes it clear this isn't an isolated issue. The lack of basic amenities was also disappointing--there is no WiFi or laundry on-site. While the location is beautiful, it seems to be the main reason this place stays in business, as the customer service and amenities do not meet expectations. The bathrooms were acceptable, but the shower pressure was extremely low, which made it difficult to use--especially for anyone with thick or textured hair.

There was a pre-built tent frame that we were able to pitch our tent under, which was spacious and really helpful for shade. The ground was decomposed granite, which made it tough to get tent stakes in. Grass would've been nicer, less dusty and more comfortable, but we made it work. The site had water and electric hookups, which was a nice surprise for a tent spot, and the restrooms were super clean and close by. The river was beautiful. We went swimming, it was shallow but fast-moving, which the kids absolutely loved. We also saw a bunch of people tubing down the river, which looked like a blast. There's a small general store on-site that opens at 9am, basic supplies, drinks, firewood, etc. Super convenient. All in all, a lovely campground. Despite the dusty ground, we'd definitely go back again.

We stayed in the Bella Vista honeymoon suite. I loved it. It allowed my husband and I to talk. There's a calming and clarifying vibe to the room and the place in general.

My husband uses a mobile scooter to get around. When the elevator came is was grossly uneven with the landing. The woman who check us in showed us a trick to get it flesh so he could get on & off. Not horrible, but time consuming. We got to our room, it's been slightly updated since the 1800's. The owner has not flipped the switch to allow AC. We were not told this so I set the AC to cool only to find out I had turned the heater on!! I couldn't get the window open at first. When I finally did I realized there was no screen! It's too old and dated for my liking. The bathroom floor is not even and slants terribly. Next time I will hunt down a different hotel for sure!.
