These are very nice , smallish cabins, a little warmer than expected. However, having come from camping the night before up at Summit lake, we were surprised that there were no food trash instructions nor bins ( we ended up using the wastebasket inside the cabin) and that the sanitizer in the nearby bathroom was completely out on both sides. There was a sink attached to the outside of the restroom but we could not figure out how to turn the hose on that would have let water reach it's faucet. The lantern is worse than useless ( I had read this going in so no surprise) and despite trying all the wall and heater controls, we could never get the propane heat to come on. Fortunately it was not a big issue though my roommate was quite disappointed. There were lovely flowers in a vase on the front porch, a request envelop for tips, and tissues under the bed left from previous visitors.

This was our second time staying at the Manzanita cabins. Highly recommend! The cabins are so cozy, clean, and comforting. The area is so quiet and private with easy access to Manzanita Lake. Would love to return this year if I can.
