(

Mornings start slow—mist in the trees, fresh coffee, and the soft scrape of boots on wood porch. By night, fires flicker and plates pass across the tables at Dandelion as the creek runs below.

What to Expect:

    🏕️ Lushna cabins, king rooms, and suites with Scandinavian style
    🔥 Firepits, s’mores kits, and tucked-away hammocks along the creek
    🧖‍♂️ Infrared and wood-fired saunas plus a wellness room
    🍽 On-site restaurant (Dandelion) with seasonal, from-scratch fare
    🐾 Pet-friendly property and staff who greet every guest by name

Important Information:

    ✔ Two-night minimum on weekends; suites and cabins can fill up far in advance
    ✔ Most rooms require some stair use; cabins are walk-up, not step-free
    ✔ ID and card needed at check-in; 21+ to reserve a room
    ✔ Direct dining reservations for Dandelion recommended, especially Fri–Sat

Haley's Pick 🍽️

You probably know her as @milehighandhungry. Each week, Haley shares the one place she’s obsessed with right now. From hidden gems to hot new openings, if she picks it, it’s worth the hype.

Haley's Review of Riot BBQ
Riot BBQ on South Delaware feels like a backyard cookout run by a Top Chef, because it is. Chef Manny Barella and pitmaster Patrick Klaiber have teamed up to blend Monterrey flavors with Texas-style smoke, and the results are seriously craveable.

The brisket steals the show: tender, deeply smoky, and finished with Barella’s bold spice rub. Get it solo or wrapped in buttery Raquelita tortillas. The pulled pork brings heat with ancho, guajillo, and morita chiles, and the al pastor ribs are sticky, sweet, and slightly charred in all the right ways.

Even the sides are insanely good! Think crunchy pepita-macha slaw and banana pudding served in a jar that tastes just like childhood (but better). Every bite feels intentional.

It’s barbecue with heart, history, and just the right amount of heat. Riot BBQ isn’t just a meal, it’s a moment worth lining up for.

What folks are saying

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Guests consistently praise the thoughtful design, friendly and attentive staff, and the calm, forested setting right by the creek. The Lushna cabins and suites are especially admired for their style and privacy. Most find amenities like the sauna, pool, and restaurant excellent, though some note sauna heat is mild and there can be wait times for the pool due to treatments. Noise can be an issue in the main motel building; standalone cabins are quieter. Cleanliness is generally strong, though a few reviews mention isolated lapses (cobwebs, fridge issues). The property is highly pet-friendly, and service stands out as helpful and welcoming.
