This is a very special place for us, but unfortunately has been continuously neglected every year. The cabin is rustic, and have been coming here for 11 years. That being said last year someone stole the battery for the solar lights and it was very dark inside. This year the fixed the battery but the main light over the inside table wasn’t working. We did come prepared at least this year for that. But one window has been boarded up, I suspect someone vandalized it again. So this made it darker inside. It is very sad that people have to ruin so many things. It is just hard for us since the price has tripled since we started visiting the house, and it has become more run down. The outhouse was missing the toilet lid to help keep the smell and bugs down, the lock is also broken and needs replaced. The deck needs some TLC, and inside the cabin needs a nice deep cleaning at least once in a while. I know I am expecting too much but with the price, and lack of care it’s hard for me to justify going. I keep hoping that it will get some improvements every year, we try to do some cleaning up while there but we are on our family vacation. It is one of the kid’s favorite places to go every summer. This is not a place for everyone, our family enjoys the lack of Wi-Fi, the rustic camping experience, the cold river, and being in nature. I just wish it would get some TLC and bring the Ludlum house back to how it was.

Everything was really good except no camp host and it would have been nice if the lawn mower guy (really nice) could have been there before we showed up instead of as we were leaving.

Overall it was a great stay. Although the grass needed cut and the trail to the river needed to be cleared as there is poisen oak peeking through in many places.

Great place, but getting a little run-down. The nearby toilets were locked so everyone had to walk to the other end of the campground to use the only pit toilet that had to serve the entire campground and the house. There used to be a picnic table near the back of the house that has been taken away, so there is no outdoor picnic table near the house. The solar lights and woodstove make it very homey, particularly on a cold, rainy night.

It's always a blast going there. We go every year if not a couple times a year.
