Lazy Z Resort

What guests think

At Lazy Z Resort, guests consistently praise the peaceful forest setting, cozy rustic cabins, and standout pool, hot tub, and clubhouse, while noting easy text-based check-in and privacy that makes it an appealing, relaxing mountain escape.

Several also report weak or absent Wi‑Fi in some cabins, small bathrooms, and limited in‑room cooking setups. The wooded hillside layout feels secluded but can be confusing in the dark, and most people drive to restaurants since there is no on-site dining. Cleanliness is generally strong, though a few units show age or worn furnishings. Overall, expect a tranquil, self-sufficient cabin stay in the woods.

Room (manzanita 1b) was a bit run down and old, but made look nice. Bathroom was tiny, no shampoo. Pool and hot tub are very nice, although pool was not heated (yet). The room is very close to the pool, which was nice for us but might be a bit loud if it is busier.

This resort is a very unique property like anything I have seen in this area before. I would call it "a piece of gold nugget in Mother lodge". We have tremendously enjoyed the pool area....sparkling clean, organic shaped beautiful pool setting, surrounded by trees and bleu sky. and lot of comfort. Above all that is a perfect place for a small weddings. Sooo romantic. Do not get mistaken as I did, it is a very large property in hilly forest area so from cottages to pool and other accommodation is a quite a walk :-)We do not typically come the same place two times, but this is one we will make an exception and we are making already plans to come back again.

Cute 7 cabin , air conditioned, clean, quiet, the pool and clubhouse were gorgeous, and private. I was there mid week. No internet in my cabin, but had a TV. Cabins are mixed in with trailers that are long term hook ups and not always lived in daily. Memory foam mattress, bring your own bar soap and shampoo, and all your own food and condiments.

The spa was wonderful- listening to the waterfalls and relaxing in the gorgeous scenery was magical. We played pool in the lodge and loved seeing all the unique antiques. A short drive away were delicious restaurants and shopping. Absolutely loved this beautiful mountain property. We will definitely be back!

We loved the natural rock water features for swimming and the hot tub. So refreshing! Disappointed that there wasn’t a cooking element or pans or bowls besides the microwave. I thought kitchenette meant that but I looked the definition up and I’m wrong. The resort is built into the hills so don’t let the map of the complex fool you. It’s not really walkable unless you like hiking thru the forest up and down steep hills.
