10/10 Excellent
"Great place to base a family hiking vacation from. Super up-to-date, clean and comfortable. 4 people, not couples had more than enough space and enjoyed cocktails overlooking the river and dinners we made together in a well equipped and modern kitchen following long days of hiking in the park. The host was easy to deal with and very direct with her instructions. Be sure to bring all your groceries with you as the trade off for being in such a beautiful secluded place is having a long drive to get any real groceries. I would rate this property very highly."
