The location was outstanding, and the view is lovely. If you want to escape people, this is the perfect place. It is even more amazing if you like staying in one place and not moving. Because you are not going anywhere from here.

There is no road to the property. The difficulty of how you arrive at the property cannot be understated. I was told by the owner that a guy with a boat will help us cross over. I was not prepared for the hike over boulders with all my luggage. It is very arduous, and can be immensely tiring if you are not fit. Also once you are there, there is no way to get back to civilisation. At night there is nowhere to go, even if there is an emergency. The facilities are less than basic. There is no electricity in the daylight hours and a generator is turned on for a few hours at night. By 2AM you are left without power altogether, and it can be very scary. A bridge and trails are being built nearby and that should be helpful.
