Great place. Unbelievably beautiful surroundings. The only downer was a TV that we couldn’t get to work. But the view made up for that.

Clean room. Property set against a mountain with 2 small waterfalls, very scenic and secluded. No shoes allowed inside, which makes it a little difficult to get in and out. A little porch will make it easier to put/take shoes on/off in rhe cold
