"It was a very peaceful place to stay! Lots of nature and fresh air. Just be prepared to walk back to your place from the parking lot (5 minutes ). You can drop your stuff off at your room. If you don't like steep stairs ask for the bottom floor! You are isolated away from town so bring everything you need. "
