From the reviews
Couldn’t have chosen a better location for my stay during graduation. Each morning I had the breakfast they provided, then enjoyed walking on the Cascade Trail right behind the inn. Then I just walked to my graduation ceremony in the afternoon. I didn’t have to deal with the graduation traffic!
Wonderful and affordable place. We chose it for our stay while in town for a wedding and we weren't disappointed. The staff was excellent and very accommodating when our plane ended up getting delayed and we needed a late checkin. My only regret is that I didn't get to try their attached bar.
The service was excellent, the coffee was delicious, the property is in its natural state, the rooms were extremely clean, the bed was a bit stiff. We booked the hotel mainly due to the convenience of the restaurant and bar which was closed. Big time bummed.
Getting married at Cascades Inn
Cascades Inn comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
