The cabin was large and fully equipped to cook meals. The view was nice over lava fields. It was a nice place to hang out after a day of exploring. You can't really walk to anything from the cabin except the check in area.
United States of AmericaCottage was super cozy and clean equipped with everything you would need and very nice view overlooking the lake. Staff was super helpful in coming to help us with check-in and showing us where to park our car safe during the yellow alert snow storm. Despite the fact that we had to walk 5-10 minutes in a windy and snowy environment from where we parked the car to the cottage, we enjoyed our stay very much. Highly recommend this cottage!
TaiwanSpacious cottage with loft. Lots of living room space to converge, dining table can fit 6. There were only 3 of us so we were very comfortable.
PhilippinesAdorable cabin with a great view. An excellent break from our camper van.
United States of AmericaThe cottages are in a great location near the lake. They are very quiet and ours had a great view of the incredible landscape. We did not cook much but the kitchen seemed well stocked and I would plan on cooking more if we return as I was not that impressed with the restaurants in the area. The cottage seemed very roomy for the 4 adults in our group with a large open living/dining/kitchen area. It was very comfortable and a nice place to come back to at the end of the day.
United States of AmericaCute cottage in a very convenient location. Noon checkout, slightly later than usual, is appreciated.
United States of AmericaJust perfect place to chill after a long trip, amazing view... all made of wood, beautiful terrace. Affordable price even for campers :) thank you guys!
