Everything was great, close to everything but far enough away in the woods. A bit of noise from the road but the heavy rain helped cover that up all night. Overall great experience staying here!
Had such a great time at this cabin. Great location, cabin was just as listed if not better. Had everything we needed to cook a small meal, and the bed was so comfortable.
This Cabin was everything and more than what we expected! The owner was so nice and informative. Would recommend to anyone and everyone

Incredible location in the redwoods. The cabin is brand new and very comfortable. It is the perfect place to use as a home base to explore the Redwoods or simply to retreat to a private cabin amongst gorgeous trees. It is well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We plan to return and highly recommend this stay.
We stayed at this cabin one night during our travel through Redwood NP. The place was clean and had nice outdoor hangout area among the tall redwoods. It's about 15 min drive to Jedediah Smith and about the same to Crescent City with several places to eat.
Great location! I would recommend to check this out!

A unique experience. It was super quiet clean and well maintained. Away from everything.
I was worried that the other cabins would be too close and have little privacy, but I was wrong!! The cabin was tucked in the beautiful trees, cushioned with the local foliage of ferns. It was truly perfectly nestled, quiet, and so peaceful. I would recommend this as the ideal place if you want a retreat in nature to recharge your internal battery. We only booked one night, but I wish we had stayed longer. It was healing and therapeutic!
The place is beautiful. There are redwoods all around the cabin. It truly is secluded. Had I looked carefully, I would have seen that there is no TV and no Internet. That made for some incredibly peaceful nights, but... in 2022, those things (especially Internet) are often vital to a traveler's lifestyle. Nevertheless, this is in an amazingly gorgeous location.
During our stay we saw no one else on Lovett Loop; while we heard nothing but peace and quiet all around us in our own forest grove. The cabin is small, as stated on the site, but has used the spaced so effectively it feels larger. Hooks on the walls are plentiful and we used them all. Plenty of counter space to cook great meals in the sweet, simple kitchen with everything a cook needs while we were there for two days. The picnic table out back is a delightful place to play games in the afternoon. (we did bring our own games) The front porch chairs are a very relaxing place at the end of a day's hike in Jed Smith State Park just down the road or for our morning coffee. We are planning to return next summer because we adore it so much. James readily responded to our needs of which there were few.
I rented a one bedroom cabin, arranged among other semi-hidden cabins in the same development. It is a real nice place, with trees and ferns all around. The cabins are new and very clean. Mine had lots of windows all around, a nice kitchenette with a nice selection of items. The cabin is furnished and decorated in a sparse fashion, but this allows the wonderful surround of redwoods to predominate. The bath had hot water, the bedroom was comfortable and cozy.
Two minor detracting details; there isn't very much storage, and the traffic on the nearby highway can be heard, but it is muffled inside cabin. Also no TV, but who needs it?

It was a nice place to get away, but the cabim had a distinct mildew smell. We tried airing the cabin oit but it did not help. We later noticed mold growong on the outside roofing of the cabin, near the door area. The pan provided for cooking had a handle that was so loose it was almost fallong off, which we were able to fix ourselves. The area was nice and the overall cleanliness of the cabin was great, but the mold/mildew sotuation was concerning.

Great location
Great location for hiking in Jedediah smith redwoods! Private cabin, good hot water. Lacking in cleanliness. Wifi would be helpful since cell reception is spotty.
Beautiful location, private and secluded. It would have been nice to have loft access, as that space was not utilized. Brand new cabins, that seem very cookie-cutter, but well-built. We enjoyed the front porch area, and glad our dogs could enjoy a small outdoor space (leashed).
Some cons: Bed felt old and over-used. 'Pet-friendly' was a little misleading, as some air b&bs provide couch covers, dog towels, and special bed sheets so that the fur pals can also feel at home. This goes a long way. Over-all, location was top notch, and the space was clean and new (minus the bed).
Very clean, new A-Frame in the Redwoods. Everything was clean, from towels to flooring. Located about 15 minutes from Crescent City. Great location for hikes in Redwoods
