1 night at Boulder Creek Lodge & RV Park
What a wonderful place! We stayed in the Sapphire cabin and it was comfy and perfect for our brief stay. The free coffee was a nice perk! I’d love to stay at the campsites next time—they looked lovely down by the creek. Very family friendly, would happily stay again + recommend.

We really enjoyed our time on this property. It is a true taste of off grid living. It is not an in town rental, but instead your experience will be far from town with the comforts you still enjoy. Elk will keep you company when you wake up in the morning. The bathroom has a unique experience that just has to be seen to understand that is very enjoyable. The host provides a very hospitable experience. I would highly recommend and also recommend enjoying all the back roads that are accessible from this cabin.

1 night at Boulder Creek Lodge & RV Park
We rolled the dice on this Hipcamp gem and hit the jackpot! Originally planned for one night, but after experiencing night one, extending was a no-brainer. Doug, the host, is seriously the best – super friendly and genuinely helpful. The whole place is incredibly well-maintained; even the bathrooms feel like they belong in a fancy hotel. Our "converted chapel" stay was a highlight, with a stunning stained glass window painting the room with light. You've also got a top-notch community kitchen (restaurant-grade stove, anyone?), a rad games room, and the river literally bubbling right outside, loud enough to be your personal soundtrack. Don't sleep on this one!

This placed exceeded my expectations. The cabin was spacious, had a fan, electricity, and everything I could need otherwise was available in the lodge or in nice bathroom areas around the complex. The Chapel is one of the spaces that allows dogs, and she was very comfortable walking all the shaded trails be the river. This is not your average RV pull-in spot. The host was very helpful, even pulling out a hose and metal bucket so my boyfriend and I could sift dirt we bought at the lodge in search of sapphires (we found several). I will be going back.
