Fantastic property and host

Kolleen was fantastic to deal with, and her property is lovely and incredibly well appointed. It made for a fantastic base for our family to enjoy the hot springs, walking downtown, and taking into some of the local hikes. We'd definitely stay here again!

Great location

Really cute property in a great location. It is small but perfect for 6 or less people. It has a small kitchen but everything is nice and well maintained. The house has been modernized but still has old features that are charming.
