“Hidden Nature Gem x”
If you are looking for a grounding, peaceful and soul fulfilling experience this is definitely the place to go. The nature views and atmosphere are exceptional being immensely captivated in nature and the dam is a very nice area for fishing and a picnic. The cabin itself is surrounded with windows and is exclusively private. Thank you so much to Magda and Chris for the experience of a lifetime x

“A very peaceful stay on a gorgeous lake hosted by the lovely Chris”
Chris was a really lovely host. We arrived late and in the dark, and he very kindly drove 20 minutes to a more obvious meeting point and guided us in. Above and beyond. He also gave us some great onward tips, and continues to over message! A lovely man The property is very cosy, and great value for money. It sits on the edge of a gorgeous lake, which has a deck that looks over the setting sun. Very peaceful, and exactly what we needed

Exceptional view and location. The lookout over the dam with the mountains in the backdrop was a splendid sight. Everything we needed was provided for. We love the treehouse and the fire place. It was rather cosy, quiet and peaceful. Thank you Magda and Chris.We really enjoyed the short time we spent at your place.

“Kindest hosts, beautiful apartment and exceptional location.”
The location is like no other, looks like a painting in real life. The hosts were very kind and helpful. The apartment was very unique, we very much enjoyed our stay and wished we could stay more than one night here.
