They told us they looked all over the West Coast looking for a retro hotel they could restore and love. We loved to A-frame style and the space that takes right back to the 60's (in a good way). Great place for Insta and Tik Tok shots. For breakfast head over to the Rice Hill Power Break Espresso drive through for coffee and Biscuits and Gravy. Whenever we are passing through we will be stopping here for the night.

From the moment we arrived, the hospitality made us feel so welcome, like we were right at home. The property itself is absolutely beautiful, with so much to see and do. Alyssa's breakfast was the highlight of our morning--delicious and made with such care. The animals on the property were adorable and added so much charm to our stay. It was the perfect place to unplug, relax, and truly enjoy everything Alyssa has created. We're already talking about coming back for a longer trip and bringing our family and friends along to share this little slice of paradise. We wish Alyssa all the success in her dreams and future plans--we can't wait to come back and see it all unfold. Thank you for making our getaway so special. We'll definitely be back!

I stayed one night in the charming sweet springs chalet.  From the beginning communication was…read moregreat. I had all the details of how to get to her place and what time I was able to check in. The countryside on the way to sweet springs is beautifully breathtaking.  I was greeted by the hostess, Alyssa. She was very welcoming and friendly along with her dogs , pigs and a few chickens. She showed me to the chalet. The first things I noticed was how clean it was and beautifully decorated. Alyssa has thought of everything to make your stay easy and comfortable. The special touches were nice. I loved the electric fire place, make up remover cloth and I spent the morning in the fuzzy robe and slippers provided. A fresh breakfast of pancakes and  fruit were hand delivered. Absolutely delightful! My stay was quick as I was just passing through but it was wonderful and I would go back for a longer stay to check out the area and relax a little longer at the sweet springs chalet. I highly recommend you check it out and book a stay!

Realistically the drive is 40 minutes off of I-5 or about an hour from the coast. This place is a…read morevacation destination for RV travelers who want swimming, tubing, and boat access to a river. A big plus is that the park is family-run by a husband/wife team who are very accommodating. They charge by the number of guests visiting but that covers the water, electricity that you will be using while there so I think that is fair. They offer clean restrooms and showers and a small laundry room (bring your quarters - $1.75 to wash/$2 to dry), plus a dog park, covered picnic pavilion, BBQ, and sink for cleaning fish. There is daily ice delivery for a small fee and the owner delivered a free cool treat to the kids (with parent's permission) one hot Saturday afternoon. It truly felt like we were in a rustic resort. The RV sites are lined up somewhat close to each other but offer enough room and privacy to make it comfortable. The park is very quiet and you will find it silent at night. You will not find tent camping here, nor will you find long-term RV tenants. The grounds are clean and rustic but well kept. We met many nice families, many who are locals who visit this park to get away from their coastal towns. The river access is by rocky boat ramp, though a rustic dirt path that lead down to the river, or by another boat ramp that was unpaved. The river had shallow rocks to sit on and sunbathe or wade out around and was deeper in the center. Small kids could play, find tadpoles, fish, swim, or kayak safely near the shore. We also noticed a few adults fishing too. It was fun playing on the river and the owners have a few tubes and kayaks to use but I recommend you bring your own river "toys" to guarantee you have what you need for your enjoyment. Also there are no close-by stores, so pack up all the food and supplies that you need for your trip and prepare to be off the grid for your visit. There is no camp store or café on site. Spotty cell reception only allowed us to receive and send a few texts. As others have said, do not expect Wi-Fi or cable here. Overall, two nights were not enough as we had such a good time on the river. If it wasn't so far away from home, we would definitely make this a regular summer destination.

My wife is a hotel person, so staying at a place that does not give you a mint on your pillow is…read morenot my usual review. We rented the cabin as relatives stayed in the RV park and had the best time which was aided by the owner, who was super helpful. The cabin is isolated from the rv's in an open field next to some shady trees. It features four twin beds (2 up in a loft). There is a couple of chairs, shelfs, a heater, a usb port for mild charging, a swing on the porch a gas bbq and a firepit with some wood and kindling. They thoughtfully provide a few odds and ends such as lighter fluid, briquets and bug spray (that was not needed). It's clean and functional and perfect for a weekend of roughing it, without sleeping on the ground. The owner called it a tent when we booked it, which is not the case. I'm sure he was setting our expectations so not to expect a standard motel accommodation. It was plenty warm at night and all the windows captured the breeze in the day. Also, bring your own pillows and sleeping bags. The only negative is the bathroom which is an outhouse across the field. The normal bathrooms with showers are about a 3 minute walk into the RV park. They are very clean and the hot water just keeps coming! This is where there is a laundry room (don't forget to bring quarters) and a great fish cleaning sink. Once again, they provided some helpful stuff here. The RV spots are pull through with a picnic table and a full hookups overlooking the river. This proximity cannot be understated as it is beautiful. It is quiet as well, great place to get your fish gear together and watch the running water. There is no separation between the spots, so friendly conversations with your neighbor is a sure bet. There is a lighted common picnic area and shade cover with a bbq provided as well as a corn-hole pitch game. We are planning on coming back next year with a large group and using this as a gathering place. Plenty of safe areas for kids to swim as well as great fishing. Our group caught a load of fish the first day from canoes. I think there is some equipment you can rent here. There is a small boat launch and ample parking for day guest. Our large group cannot say enough good things about the hands-on owner of the resort. He comes by occasionally to check that all is well. He provided river whistles (a requirement when tubing in Oregon) and a couple of life jackets as we ran short. We understand the prior owner was more laid back and some of the camp got run down. That is not the case now, as everything was in great shape. By the way, cell services is really spotty here, so don't plan on being connected to your social media. Just enjoy the river.

They also have the special plants/flowers that you can take home to your own butterfly garden. If you're in this area, be sure to take a quick, easy break from driving... I don't think you'll be sorry! Teens were mostly in charge when we visited, most of the time you're on your own to explore.

You have to walk a tiny bit to see Fort Umpqua, but it is pretty cool to see an actual fort. The best part is the butterfly pavilion. The eggs are teenie tiny blue dots the size of the head of a pin. The butterflies are lovely. Be very careful where you step. We walked down to the river and waded out to the sandbar and looked for cool rocks. That was awesome. All in all, it's a nice place to take a load off.
