"100% recommended! Rare gem!
We stayed at this cabin-style guesthouse by a dammed mountain lake and had the best experience we've had in a long time. It’s not a commercial resort hotel, but a warm, family-run retreat with all the professionalism of a luxury stay—only better.
From the very beginning, the hosts went above and beyond, even helping us plan before arrival via WeChat. Once there, they continued to amaze us with their hospitality: attentive, friendly, and seemingly tireless in making sure we were comfortable.
The cabins are beautiful and cozy, with incredible views over the lake and surrounding cloudy mountains. There are great viewing platforms around the property to relax and soak in the scenery. The rooms were spotless, stylish, and family-friendly, with cute cats roaming around that made us feel even more at home.
The cooking was another highlight—homemade meals tailored to our personal preferences, always fresh and hearty after long hikes. They knew the area well and gave us excellent tips on scenic spots and restaurants.
This is a place run with heart and soul. If you're looking for a peaceful, luxurious, and personal mountain escape, this is the place! 100% recommended!"
