Do you allow pets?
We have one type of accommodation that allows up to 2 pets, and they are our “Canyon Cabin” rentals. When booking this type of accommodation, you should note your pet(s), and a pet fee will be applied towards your reservation balance.
What days do you close?
We are open year-round and most days. Exceptions include the days (usually about a week) when we close for our spring cleaning projects each spring.
If I rent 2 or more rooms on a weekend, can I get a discount?
We do not offer lodging discounts on weekends.
What discounts do you have?
Quinn’s honors our Military Veterans and active or retired Military Members with a lodging discount of $20 off your room/cabin per night of your stay. A Valid U.S. Military/Veteran ID or a DD-214 is required at check-in. PLEASE NOTE: The military discount only applies to the military member/veteran’s room. Only one discount per reservation or stay is allowed, and we cannot combine different types of discounts. For example, if a reservation is made for 3 different rooms, only one discount will be applied and it will be for just one room (the room the military member/veteran is staying in). If there is more than one military veteran/member in your group, we recommend that your group makes separate reservations; one for each room/cabin so that each veteran/member can apply their military discount to their room.
We also have a multi-night discount of 10% off each night for stays of 3 nights or longer. This discount can be applied towards just one cabin/room that is reserved for 3 consecutive nights or longer. For example, if a guest stays 1 night in one cabin and then moves to another cabin for an additional 2 nights, they will not receive the multi-night discount.
Discounts cannot be combined, only one can be used per stay or reservation.
