We have been coming to the Hummingbird Cabin twice a year for several years now. It’s the best place to kick back, relax, and enjoy the peace and quiet. Geloria is the perfect host, and visiting with her is always a highlight of our trip.

We loved our stay at the Hummingbird Cabin, very pretty location, very clean. Comfy bed and we loved the deck with a bbque , table with pads on the chairs and hot tub was amazing. Didn’t get a chance to use the fire pit. Pond is nice. Equipped with all our needs. Maybe another heating unit as we did need the electric fireplace and heater fan. Would recommend Hummingbird for a nice get away for 2. Close to hiking opportunities and wineries.

The host was very nice and respectful. I do believe the cabin pictures online make it look more secluded than what it is. That was okay for the most part. We were aware the owner lived across the pond, but there was also a neighbor, I'm guessing a relative maybe. He was over one evening in a loud boom lift while we were trying to fish, enjoy some wine and a fire. His dog along with the owners dog were repeatedly on the property. While we dont mind dogs, we were not told theyd be around, and they were there everytime we were outside , jumping on us. Im allergic to dogs so this was a bit frustrating. The owner of one of the dogs was driving onto the property a couple times to get his dog, so as far as privacy goes it didnt feel very private. The cabin itself wasnt bad. It was clean and well stocked, my only complaint there was with being in such close proximity to the owners house there was no curtains on the front door , the kitchen window or the back door (which the bathroom was directly across from the back door) if i could make a suggestion there, it would be to put privacy curtains up. The living room air unit worked , however the buttons were broke to adjust the temp. They did provide fire wood , but it had been sitting by the wood line and was old and wet and wouldnt light. So we had to go buy our own. Aside from these inconveniences, its a decent place to stay and i wouldnt be opposed to staying again, if they take into consideration these things.
