Great Stay highly recommended.

We loved our stay at the drift! The cabin was clean spacious and I love that you’re not sharing a wall with anyone. The location is perfect walking distance to downtown and the hot springs. Being alongside the river was so nice too! Highly recommend!

Doesn’t get any better. The builders did an amazing job! Did not cut any corners and this place is designed very well. I would stay here anytime. I have stayed in many places much more expensive that are not nearly as nice as this. Very well thought out.

Great place to stay. Has just the bare necessities, but everything you need. Very close to hot springs. You will have to deal with the sulphur smell, but that’s pretty much the whole town.

The Drift: Where Chill Meets Charm

The Drift is the kind of place that makes you want to stay awhile. Its vibe is laid-back yet stylish, and even though the staff works offsite, the owner’s father personally stopped by to check in on guests—a thoughtful touch that made the experience feel warm and welcoming. The Drift strikes that perfect balance of comfort and cool.

One suggestion we might recommend is to have cozier comfy seats! The plastic chairs are not very comfortable! We still love staying at the Drift!
