Blue Lake Ranch

Fantastic location with great views. It has a lot of potential but is starting to look a little run down. The grounds could use some work and the trails around the property need help. Depending on the cook, breakfast ranged from great to the awful.

The “resort” needs updating. We rented the cottage in the woods. Yard was overgrown and the cottage was in fair to poor condition. Not at all what the pictures showed and ridiculously expensive for what we received. There were mouse droppings on our floor, blinds didn’t keep out sunlight, wasp nest on front porch, breakfast was disappointing, no one greeted us at all, etc. Absolutely no customer service. So disappointed!

Before this visit we stayed two times in the BLR. The first time in 2015 in a room in the main building, we got greeted by the owners and got a small tour over the grounds, in my opinion our stay was just wonderful. The second time was in de Cedar Casita in 2019, casita is huge, big bath room, big bed room, great views. But some loose floor tiles, fly doors a bit rickety, one doesn’t close properly, that lowered the level of experience. Because of that experience we booked the Cedar Casita this year again. Now this third time, we were not greeted at all, there was a letter taped on the window of the main building and DIY. A place like this, who likes to place this BLR in the upper end of B&B’s can do better. By the way, the loose tiles grom 2019 in the bedroom were still loose… Above that, one patio corner was covered in bird dropping and on top of that mouse droppings, the cushions from the patio beds need replacing because of lack of comfort, faded colors and sigaret hole. The mouse was running through our bedroom. In my opinion the customer should expect more comfort and extra service in the BLR. We paid nearly 1900 USD for 5 nights, That’s serious amount. For us this was the last time in the BLR.
