    What a wonderful place! The cabin was well decorated and comfortable. The kitchen was well outfitted, with a lovely view of the river from the window. Covid rules were enforced and I felt quite safe.

    Recently stayed here for 3 nights and it was amazing!! Made it up to see the snow had so much fun walking around the property. The cabins have heaters, blankets, bathroom toiletries and the kitchen is fully stocked with cooking necessities! No WiFi or service, you can drive about 45 min out to get some but it is nice to be off the grid for a few days. Highly recommend staying here!! And with covid, they do self check in and check out so you never come into contact with anyone on the property (: 10/10

    Tons of great trails all around the Lure

    We recently stayed at the Lure Resort during the Downieville Classc MTB race. The cabins are rustic yet luxurious in ear shot of the bubbling Yuba River. Full kitchens, comfy beds, hot showers. And it's a quick pedal away from town. Highly recommend!

    This was the perfect escape away from the busy work life. The kitchen had brand new appliances and plenty of space to prepare a meal. We loved the fact that Downieville is a 2 minute drive down the road. We will be back hopefully for Christmas!

    The New Lure. It's back. I never stayed at the old place so I can only comment on my first hand experience of the new old Lure. We stayed in Cabin 7 which is a studio apartment style. One big room with a separate bathroom, and a deck overlooking the river. The place has gone through some obvious renovations. The kitchen had all new appliances, counter tops, plumbing etc ... The utensils, cutlery, cookware, and glassware were also all new. We arrived late at night and had made arrangements ahead of time for the late check in. I'd forgotten exactly which cabin we were in, and was happy to find a note on the door with my name on it welcoming me. Dave and Barb are the hosts and were quick to communicate over email, as well as being super friendly and helpful the next day when I signed the registry. The whole experience was fantastic. I would not call it a luxury experience as you are after all in a cabin in the woods, but I do think of it as more premium affair. All of the touch points inside the cabin are quality products with many locally sourced. I think the rental prices reflect this more premium experience. After some discussion I found out that The Lure was purchased by a group of locals from around the region. That's good news for it's long term success. We got a chance to look around at some of the other options. There's larger multi-room cabins for larger groups, and smaller camping cabins that will be perfect when I'm going solo. Those camping cabins have access to a shared indoor shower, and bathroom. We come to Downieville several times a year for the mountain biking. Having a place like this to go after the riding for some relaxation makes a weekend of hardcore MTB into a total vacation. I can't wait to go back.

    Do the cabins have air conditioning?

    Hello Roger! Our cabins do not have air conditioners. However, our 8 housekeeping cabins are in the shade most of the day and the proximity to the river keeps the fairly cool. We also have fans in each room and overhead fans in the living rooms.

What do you get? Very basic motel room, with no air conditioning (fans are provided) and basic kitchen and bathroom amenities. It was great to have a full kitchen though, plus an outdoor BBQ - we brought a ton of food and drinks with us and we ate very, very well. Why bother? It's CHEAP and located in a beautiful stretch of road by the Yuba River. Just walk across the street to soak in the river to cool off or to try some fly fishing. About 15 minutes away by car is the cute little town of Downieville, a mecca for outdoor sports. This was a great alternative for a quick, CHEAP getaway - no crowds, no noise, just you and your two and four-legged friends out in nature. The owners/managers are a hoot - they'll gab til the cows come home, but are actually very nice and do as much as they can to make you feel comfy.

The old Bank AmeriCard sign out front says just how long this place has been going since the last remodel- 1969? But that's what makes it so unique. Plenty of parking. Our host was a real 'clamper'- gold miner that is- knew the gold miner language and life style almost too well...talked our ear off. But he made sure we were all situated and gave us some tips on how to get to the swimmin hole by the river. Don't get any ideas about being a claim jumper though! the river is fully staked in these here parts. This is for those that like the highway 49 historic feeling and a way to know the real thing. Kokanee is a type of salmon species common to Lake Tahoe and the Truckee River. The person who named the place must have been trying to lure fisherman. Oh, and the Forest around Kokanee Kabins is big and beautiful and heavenly. Bring your favorite drinks and a camera and call Kokanee Kabins home for a weekend. If you're not into funky best to go up the road to Butte's Inn or High Country Inn.

My wife had the Justin Cab to drink, with dinner, as I had beer. Excellent choices, as we both had the Pot Roast Special, I had the salad, Caesar, while my wife had the New England Clam Chowder. The meal was exceptional. There was very little fat on the Pot Roast and the Au Gratins, with string beans and zucchini. We had the blackberry pie a la mode and lemon sorbet, with coffee, fresh cup. Service was excellent, and we both walked out, happy and full. Price is excellent as the Chef, has 50+ years of experience with a culinary education . We made another reservation for this Friday, for the Bison Filet Special, before they close, for the season. Cannot wait for Friday...!!!!

Lots of hiking and biking trails close by as well. We just came back from our 5th family reunion at the hotel and have already booked our dates for the 6th. We are a family that loves to cook and we couldn't ask for a better kitchen set up. We have literally scoured every vacation rental site available and have never found a property like this one, where the entire hotel is yours for your stay. It's a special place and if you have a large group to accommodate, we highly recommend this one! It is about an hour from the nearest grocery store so you'll want to think through your meal plans/shopping lists ahead of time.
