Perfect getaway with the family.

I think my husband and I were just as excited as the kids when we pulled into the driveway. Inside the retreat was even better! Everything was so clean and modern. The details and decor were the perfect icing on the cake! We loved the privacy and the hot tub the best. We even got to catch up on the latest Jurassic movie we hadn’t seen.

A unique adventure

Really cool property. The kids loved the animatronic Dinos. The decor was really well done, themed but classy. Amenities were great- including popcorn and movie candy. But, a few suggestions: Some dead gnats and cobwebs in windowsills and along baseboards that need to be cleaned. Bed pillows were not great. No drinking or wine glasses. Power was out for several hours our first night and on an off after that due to windy weather.

Truly remarkable! One of a kind!

This property was unlike anything we've ever experienced...from the moment we drove through the gates and were met with a motion-activated animaltronic brontosaurus, our kids exploded with excitement and the adults were kids again. The pictures do not do justice to the true experience of this retreat. Moreover, the interior decor and design was exquisite. I am so thankful that we were able to experience something so truly unique! Thank you for an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime (until we come again :)) stay!!!

Magical experience to remember

You could feel the devotion to craftsmanship, artistic eye and pure fandom in this beautiful vacation rental full of fun dinosaurs and details. We had a magical experience that will be a lifetime memory to cherish. Worth every penny. The beds were comfortable and the couches and sitting areas, the hot tub was so great, the towels provided were soft, beautifully decorated and designed and so fun to have a slumber party /Jurassic Park movie marathon with moving dinosaurs outside. Thank you so much for this special experience.

What an experience!

We had an absolute great time! Our kids loved every minute we were there. We didn't plan ahead but it would have been helpful to bring snacks and food to make meals. We ended up checking in late and needed to leave the compound early to get breakfast. We ended up in downtown Camas and it was lovely! My kids want to go back soon.

Perfect family getaway

Love that the house is new and very clean. Todd thought of pretty much everything and the design details did not go unnoticed. The beds were very comfortable and there is plenty of games and dvds, so I didn't need the ones I brought. My boys loved the moving dinosaurs and the hot tub. When we arrived at 8pm the house was a bit on the cold side and took a while to warm up, but the two wall heaters worked very well after the initial warm up and kept the house toasty for the weekend. The kitchen is stocked with the basics. I brought popcorn and coffee but didn't need to because there was popcorn there and a Keurig and k-cups. Overall, my family had a very nice time and we would love to come back!

Awesome, place to stay!

My son has loved dinosaur's 🦕 since he was 3 years old. This was truly a dream for him. From the motion activated dinosaurs that make noise to toys, games, movies and bedding with the theme was an add on. The place was so clean and new. They also had snacks and drinks free of charge. We went in the winter, so will definitely have to go back in the summer. It was the perfect little getaway.

Great family fun!

We loved our stay here. The dinosaurs and overall theming were excellent. Inside, there is plenty of room for 8 people to spread out. The beds are comfy, the kitchen was well-stocked with complementary coffee and snacks, the TV is huge and has satellite TV and a blu-ray player with several DVD sets like Jurassic Park. We stayed over New Years, and with snow on the ground, 4 wheel drive is a must due to the steep unpaved road to the property. We also had no cell service at all, and the satellite internet is limited to basic browsing. This was all clearly stated in the listing, so we weren’t surprised, but it’s worth reiterating. We appreciated unplugging and enjoying the dinosaurs with our family!
