Pleasant getaway
Easy to access property. Given plenty of instructions on email in how to get there and check in process.
Place was very clean, had sufficient kitchen utensils and seating for two people. The air conditioning/heating system is more than capable of handling the tiny house.
Outdoors were safe and well looked after. Appreciated the effort in allowing visitors to have an outdoor fire and seating around it.
Overall would recommend the place to people wanting a getaway with beatiful night sky and stay in a serene place.
However the only thing I would recommend visitors is packing own bottled water for drinking as the tap water had an after taste to it.

House was located in a nice property with cute alpacas and chickens that follow you around. Definitely a place to spend a night to get away from the city life. Hosts were extremely nice and helpful! 5 out of 5!

Fantastic farm stay
Had a great time at the property. The tiny house is situated in a paddock with friendly alpaca's, chickens, ducks and geese. The fire pit made for a cozy and fun night. Colin the host was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Also happy to show you the animals etc.
No complaints with the tiny house itself, but do not that insulation is fairly non existent so you will need both the heating and cooling throughout the day/night (both were adequate).
