What Guests Are Saying
The Orange Olsen Cabin is praised for its peaceful atmosphere, ideal for unwinding away from technology and city life. Guests enjoy comfortable amenities like hot showers, a well-equipped kitchen, and easy access to nearby recreational activities such as biking, fishing, and exploring trails. However, some concerns include security issues with the digital door lock and limited privacy, as well as the need for additional supplies like firewood and a cutting board.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was cleaner than expected and we loved the location. We hiked west of the cabin up into the nearby canyon and saw some deer. We hiked east of the cabin to the shoreline and saw a bald eagle. We swam by where the river came out from the west into the reservoir; it was away from the boats and fairly secluded. We had no problems starting fires in the ring and there was firewood already there. It was easy to locate more firewood, as there were piles of dried/dead juniper/sage brush wood, which worked quite well. It was a very simple vacation, and we loved it. Also, the water was AMAZING; best water I've ever had to drink!

This cabin is in a terrific location, close to the reservoir, streams, etc. Cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. Nearby there are beautiful areas to visit by car, but not necessary. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It had a newly updated bathroom, new stove, new dishes and pots/pans. The cabin stayed cool even on hot days and heater worked great on cool mornings. The cabin exceeded our expectations and we would stay there again.
