Beautiful Cabin next to a...

Liked: the most lovely property with all the necessities along the water. the vibe of the redwoods and cabin was so special! very clean and comfortable! my kids really enjoyed swimming in the river and picking blackberries. only thing is that if you book later in the day and arrive after 3 the office is closed. booked through booking.com fyi. we arrived at 6pm and there was no one in the office and although we received a confirmation email with info letting us know that the registration papers and key that were supposed to avail outside the office for us were not there. a slight moment of panic with 2 little kids in the car and darkness descending. we had been trying to call since 4pm on our drive there, probably 20x, but no one answering the phone. I did alert the owner to maybe having a different # avail no one was around luckily they leave an emergency contact list outside the office so we were able to reach the owner who came down asap to check us in. our room had mistakingly not been cleaned yet even though it was 6pm, so she was king enough to upgraded us from cabin 6 to cabin 10, which had more space and an additional bedroom, which was so appreciated! this is a very special place, highly recommend but def try to to reach via phone before arriving to confirm your reservation. especially if booking late or through a 2nd party. I did alert the owner to maybe having a different # avail for guests to call to confirm the reservation.
Disliked: everything except the uncertainty of being able to verbally confirm our reservation prior to arriving (late).

Superb

Liked: Our first visit here. Beautiful setting! Very happy with the particular cabin we chose. I think we would like to do this exact cabin again! Maybe also come during a different season just to see what it’s like.

Very good

Our experience at the Fern...

Liked: The river access, the rustic feel of the cabin, how clean everything was, and the location proximity to Felton!
Disliked: The cabin unfortunately has very thin walls - leaving us to listen to the family next door and their screaming children for most of our stay.
