"Awesome property with views to die for. Very quiet and the rooms were nicely appointed. Only thing is food is either 30 mins North or 40 mins south. Luckily, there is a taco truck across the street that is delicious! Definitely 10/10. We would definitely return again! Thank you Lucia Lodge! 😊"

"This is a very unique place. I absolutely loved the fact of how remote it is. It’s amazing to not hear a soul and be literally in nature. Firepit hot tub and a lovely set of neigbours in a friendly goat and a few sheep. I really loved this place"
