“An amazing property with Mt. Kenya view”
This was one of the best Airbnb experiences we had. It's a very nice and clean property. Very well-equipped kitchen with all the amenities around. The view of Mount Kenya made it even more special. The property has 2 very well-behaved pet dogs and our family had a great time with them. The entry from the Timau Mall is a little tricky but the host had guided with the local map in prior. The road is rough for around 9 km until the main location. Gives you a little adventure :) Loved the stay and will recommend this property!

“Rejuvenated and Refreshed after a peaceful stay”
We needed time to recover after 3 weeks on the road. The view of Mt Kenya and the peaceful neighbourhood allowed us to do this. We had everything we needed and Mike helped us start our fire in the evening.

“A quiet stay in beautiful surroundings with excellent view of Mt Kenya”
This remote property is very clean and tidy. Kitchen is fully stocked with the necessary utensils and there is complementary tea and coffee, salt, pepper, sugar,… Many people make notes on the road but the directions by the owner were very clear. The final few km’s take you of the man road on a dirt road. A car with a bit higher ground clearance does better here. Pictures correctly show what property looks like and view of Mt Kenya is also as pictured

“Highly recommended!”
A very nice location. The hostess gave us correct directions and was very helpful. The host even offered us dinner, despite the late arrival time. The lodge was very beautifully situated in nature with ample surface area. All the spaces were very neat and comfortable.

“Very enjoyable”
The property is in a serene area with an amazing view of Mt. Kenya. I loved the wooden finishing on most things. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could think of. Mike the caretaker also provided a small barbecue where we made some meat. He was very accommodating and ensuring we had everything we needed to make our trip lovely. He also took us on a hike by the river and showed us some waterfalls. The owners were also very responsive and available to answer any queries we had, they also prepared us with a map of the location prior to arrival which made everything easy. We also had a lovely time with Mocha and Latte, the 2 lovely and playful dogs on the property. We really enjoyed our trip and we will definitely be visiting again.

“Beautiful nature, well equipped and cozy house, friendly caretaker”
Wonderful place in the mountains. Had some nice days in the beautiful, quite nature. The caretaker Mike was super friendly and brought us always fire that we could sit outside in the evening. He was very helpful. The accommodation, especially the kitchen is very well equipped so we could cook everything we want during these days.
