This is the perfect space for a weekend away. Only a couple minutes drive into the main town with quiet surroundings. Well appointed amenities set on a beautiful property. Views of the snow top mountains and farm animals a plenty. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this renovated home. It was absolutely picturesque and the hosts were amazing. We’ll be back for sure! 10/10 recommend!
