Bedrooms in the lower level with a very narrow staircase.

An absolute paradise, nothing less. Big house on 2 floors, with a very large living room, 2 balconies and stunning views. Every single thing in this place is designer-grade, even down to the water kettle. The surroundings are nothing short of magical, with hills, forests, birdsong, a beautiful lake, etc., etc. Owner, Jin, was very attentive and really bent over backwards in making sure we had everything we needed - even months before the trip, he was offering help with finding proper restaurants in the area (which he, of course, did). We cannot recommend this wonderful place enough.

The 'Roadtrip' gas barbecue was not so great - we would recommend a Weber Q1200, which would be far better suited as a high-end gas grill, as it is impossible to burn food on it (even without the water filling, which is quite messy on the Roadtrip model).

The communication with the hosts was exceptional—they were very kind, helpful, transparent, and responded almost instantly. Visually, the house is a modern design piece and looks exactly like the photos.

Atmosphere: Despite the beautiful design, the house lacked the coziness and warmth we expected from the pictures. It felt quite "cold" in person. • Child Safety: This was our biggest concern. The stairs are very steep and the railings are wide open. For families with a crawling child or toddler, it felt unsafe. A safety gate for the living area is urgently needed. • Hidden Costs: For a property in this price range, we were disappointed that extra towels, bed linens, and even the sauna incur additional fees. • Insects: Being located in nature, there were several large and intimidating spiders inside. "tools" were provided to handle them. Verdict: While we truly appreciated the hospitality of the hosts, the stay itself was disappointing due to safety concerns and the lack of a welcoming atmosphere. Best suited for adults who don't mind extra service fees.
