Mountain Retreat and Trout Fishing Adventure in a Tranquil Setting

Beautiful location, very nice house. Can easily accommodate 10 adults or 10 adults + 2 kids. Host Steve is from LA, California and we couldn't ask for a better host! Steve did shopping for us prior to our arrival, again drove us to Walmart for more shopping! He also negotiated discounts for us at many attractions in Costa Rica. The house is very neat and clean, the surroundings are excellent for a relaxing vacation. Our kids and Steve caught trouts from his fish farm and Steve even grilled the fish for us! We had an excellent experience overall and would love to vacation with him again! Overall I highly recommend this house to any group of 8 or more.

When I first arrived at the house I was blown away by the beauty of the property and home. Then I met Steve and his hospitality floored me, I would HIGHLY recommend renting from Steve! I can't wait to come back, see you soon Steve!!

We were very pleasantly surprised at the whole vacation down there in Costa Rica! From picked up at airport (no car rental needed) and driven thru the city of San Jose north into the high country overlooking the city and valley. When arriving at this beautiful mountain home we all gasped and started grinning and didn't stop for our 12 days there! Made for a big family, all furnished with more than you need, fireplaces in the bedrooms............it was just perfect for our family gathering. It overlooks trout ponds and beautiful trees. You also get a fantastic host who I think loves taking care of whatever needs or any problem you run into. Steve kept us in firewood and cooked us some great trout dinners, took us to town to shop whenever we wanted and on and on..........answered any questions, pointed out birds and plants,....he goes with the house and adds a real value to the price of the package. I feel like we got way more than we expected or paid for! I am sure to go back again as the years go by. Every restaurant we went to was great also and a potpourii store a short walk away. We were together as a family with all four kids and all four grandkids and they all had a wonderful time.............Thanks Steve!...........you are the perfect host!!

Our intent for our vacation was to spend time with family. The 'trout house' allowed us to do just that. We were so comfortable the entire trip, from the soooooo soft beds to the everything you could think of appliances, the house gave us a home and with it a most gracious host. Steve is such an asset to the vacation home. He knows where to go, gets you there, speaks the language, is well mannered, upbeat, and positive in a professional way. His many contacts for everything were also very handy at various times during our stay. This home is also great for children and small children as there is plenty to do in and around the house itself from fishing to the multi station flatscreen TVs. One of my favorites was walking with the kids to the local mini market and buying them homemade ice creams from the fresh milk in the zone. Then we would go to the little playground and eat it. The family that owns the store was also very friendly and kind and even gave me an herb to make into tea when I was feeling bad, which cured me right up! They sell homemade breads, fresh cows milk, the local sour cream, and many other staples. The area is quite lovely. Very nice also was the warm fire and fireplace and the firewood was always restocked. I highly recommend the home, Steve, and leaving it up to him for transport and guide!
