Great place. Bit of a drive to get to interesting places. No markings on the property made it difficult to find at 2:00am.
Fabulous place to stay! Everything was clean and the processes were easy to follow. When I needed help it was immediately available. Traveling alone I didn’t need a two bedroom but it was a delicious indulgence in a great location and very comfortable, at a very fair price. I’m glad I found it and I would stay again. I loved having access to the washer/dryer.Note: The geothermal ponds a few miles away were an unexpected surprise, as was the Sunday afternoon drum and dancing circle down the street. There’s a very nice energy among the people here, and it was very fun to be part of a sea of humanity enjoying one another’s company, and life in general.
