A Very Nice Stay
"Best hotel in the area in my opinion. Definitely would recommend if you're travelling through. Breakfast was nice and the evening restaurant food was very impressive. Only issue i found was the price tag on using the sauna, very expensive, hence why i didnt use it."

"Such a unique living experience. Living in an own personal hut near the mountains is such a great way to be in the nature. Private parking available. There is limited hot water in the room but this is a given when living more off the grid."

Note that grocery will close each night by 8P, no alcohol is sold past 6P and not too many dining options, but the Art Cafe was excellent! Great jumping off point for sites along the South Coast.
