From the top of blood mountain we texted the owner of the cabins and she was nice enough to leave an envelope with our name and keys for a cabin at the office telling us we could settle with her in the morning. We found the raccoon cabin to be spacious and the hot shower refreshing after a long day of hiking. We cooked our dehydrated meals on the back porch enjoying the serene blood mountain wilderness around us. Mountain crossings was a mere five minute walk from our cabin and we were able to buy a frozen pizza from them which we cooked in our cabin. If your a weary hiker on the AT this is a great place to get a hot shower and sleep in a real bed.

The cabin had beautiful wood walls and all the beautiful wood furniture to match it. The decor and details were just very well thought out. The jacuzzi was amazing and had a privacy wall so the cabin next door could not see you when in the jacuzzi. It overlooks a little lake that has the cutest playful little otter. It was so nice to sit in the swing on the porch overlooking the lake with a cup of coffee in your hand. There is a creek that runs right next to the cabin and the sounds of a running creek are just beautiful. We will definitely be back to this same cabin!

You can even pan for gold in it! There is a small pond here where you can fish or feed the fish. A swing is right by it so you can relax and they have a hammock too! Hello tranquility! We saw deer walk by while eating lunch from the dining room window. It was magic! The home is near so many things to do or you can just relax on the porch watching nature. We are planning on doing some exploring and a tubing trip while here. The owners have a book with all kinds of information and brochures from local businesses! From restaurants and wineries to local shops and events, it's in the book to look over. We're already planning another stay to go to all the things we didn't know we'd want to go to! The home is 2 stories with 3 bedrooms each with a queen bed and large screen TV. The master bedroom has its own bathroom with jacuzzi tub and shower. Full beautiful kitchen and dining room that can seat 6 at the table. I can't recommend Mountain Valley Creek Retreat any more!

What a quaint and such fun place tucked away in the mountains! From the time we arrived the staff ( Megan) was beyond welcoming. From the cookies to the champagne it was very special. Our room was perfect! Just what I needed for a get away. Well we went off for dinner for at night and decided to take an Uber since it was New Year's Eve and we were not familiar with the area. When it came time to leave , our uber never showed up! We tried again and again to no avail! Called the one and only taxi in the town and she was unable to give us any definite answer. My last hope was to call the lodge . I felt terrible as it was getting later by the minute. It was their New Year's celebration going on. No one was able to answer so I left a message for their manager Sean hoping at 11:00 anyone would even be there to respond. Not even 5 minutes later Sean sent a text asking if we still needed help . This guy went above and beyond to help us out. He was there within minutes and got us back to the resort in time to celebrate with the other guests to bring in the new year! This place is a gem. We will definitely be back every year! They have covered every little detail here to make it special for each guests. Thank you again Sean for making this trip an awesome time! We will definitely be back!

In summary, what a beautiful setting, excellent service, delicious food, charming drinks, with every one of the staff members (owners included) just waiting to coddle and take care of your every whim and desire. Finding the Lodge the first time was a little challenging but just trust the GPS even though it looks like you're heading onto someone's property, stay on the road until you reach the top. Once there, be prepared to be pampered. The road up is a tad narrow, and when we arrived it was covered in leaves (we hit prime color change/leaf dropping) but it's not bad. The rest of the time the road was well cleared with turn-outs obvious and useful if needed (we didn't need one during travels in and out). We stayed in a room on the 1st floor at the end of the hall with a nice sitting room and patio with a beautiful view of the wooded hillside. The room was nice, fully functional and one nice feature were motion lights under the bed such that if you get up during the night you're not stumbling around to find the bathroom door. Loved that. They have a bar with well made drinks and a nice cozy sitting area with a fireplace and comfortable chairs we used to chat with the staff who helped fine tune our winery stops. They have a 'snack bar' (my term) complete with various snacks, cold drinks, a coffee drink, and freshly made cookies each day. Oh, and they will point out a nice little file box with room numbers with homemade candy that magically appears each afternoon! A delicious and generous breakfast is included that is FAR from the typical powered scrambled eggs, paper thin bacon (you know what I'm talkin' about!). No, this is a freshly made frittata, the best home fries I've ever had, fresh cut fruit and more. Great start to each day! They have an outdoor seating area complete with lights, an abundance of bar height chairs/tables, Adirondack chairs, and fire pits. A great way to spend an evening at sunset sipping your wine/cocktails and talking the evening away. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that we opted for the five-course prix fixe dinner in their large communal dining area known as "Wit & Wisdom". It was a great way to mingle with other guests, share stories, compare winery travels, and just share time and conversation. This alone was worth the price of admission! We added the wine pairing so we went all in, and we felt that we certainly got our money's worth out of it! Kicking it off with an Amuse-Bouche and wrapping up the next five-courses, while they appear small, we were absolutely stuffed when we were done. The wines were outstanding and it turned out to literally be the perfect ending to our glorious stay with owners Tommy & Heather and the entire staff that made sure we were fed, comfortable, and part of the Mountain Top 'family'. As I loaded the pictures, I realize I have to give a shout-out to Topher and the crew in the kitchen! You all demonstrate exceptional service and skill. Well Done!!!

I have been coming here for years and have had many great memories made here with my family, combined with the camping experience and/or staying in a cabin, the experience has always exceeded all expectations as the staff there has always planned different events for all age groups each time. The staff are amazing and are always available. The location of the concert was simply breathtaking. Set against the backdrop of a flowing river, the stage was perfectly positioned to encapsulate the beauty of nature. The sound quality was exceptional, and the acoustics were surprisingly great considering the open-air setup. Overall, this outdoor concert by the river and camping experience was truly unforgettable. The combination of incredible music, breathtaking scenery, and the chance to immerse oneself in nature made for an extraordinary weekend. I would highly recommend River Falls to anyone who appreciates the great outdoors, and the joy of creating lasting memories.
