We had a nice time at this property. All bedrooms had bunkbeds; double below and twin above. We enjoyed the hot tub on the deck and the kitchen and sitting area was great. They offer laundry. Horse riding is available 5 min from this location.

We loved our stay in our cute cabin with a private hot tub. The patio had a table that was perfect for coffee and dinner. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were a little hard but not bad. The bathroom was a little small and the curtain does not keep the water in the shower. Perfect location for the golden circle. The secret lagoon was only 30min from there as well. We loved how quiet it was and beautiful scenery.

We stayed in a one-bedroom cabin and absolutely loved it. The room was spotless and cozy, and we were pleasantly surprised to find a brand-new couch and flat-screen TV, both of which looked older in the photos, so the upgrade was a nice touch. One of our favorite things was that the hot tub was always open. Sitting in it at 2 a.m. with nothing but quiet around was such a relaxing experience. Although we didn’t eat at the restaurant, the menu looked excellent and we’d definitely consider it next time. The highlight of our stay was the outstanding front desk staff, two incredibly friendly and helpful guys who went above and beyond. They even created a quiet space for me in the lobby to take a conference call, knowing we had kids with us and the cabin might get noisy. I think one of the guys names was Martin. Highly recommend this place and would absolutly come back!

The cottages were outdated and strongly recommend at least upgrading beds/mattresses and getting screens in windows. we roasted in the room because we were advised not to open window due to the bugs. Would have been a bit more manageable if we could have opened windows. Staff was nice, check in was easy. Did not eat the breakfast but didn’t look impressive when checking out! 1 of the 3 hot tubs were open but due to bugs, we opted not to use.
