Summary: Lovely.This place is not a luxury hotel. But it has what you need and it has heart. A truly peaceful and soulful place. A beautiful setting, so many birds and an incredible view. I was concerned about the composting toilet but it is totally civilized with a sink and running water. Smelled better than most indoor baths. We did not use the sauna as the weather was quite warm and sunny but it looked charming. There was a fire laid in the wood stove and the wood boxes were filled with split wood, vase of fresh flowers on table. Lots of nice little touches.
