Their staff is friendly and helpful. She gave us a lot of information in the area. Each unit is a separate chalet. Very cute and cozy place. One thing I was disappointed was that they only have a shampoo/body soap dispenser on the shower wall, no other amenities. You should bring your own shampoo and conditioning if you have long hair. ##### ehlers Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elaia Jan 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities loved the location, nice and peacefull ##### Elaia Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gywnn Oct 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I like that it had all i needed ##### Gywnn Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### laura Sep 3, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We arrived late and left early as was just passing through.
