“Beautiful place to stay for a peaceful getaway. We absolutely loved staying here and had such a relaxing weekend. Would 100% recommend. We will be back!”

“We had a great time! The location was super easy to find, the surrounding area was very quiet with plenty of walks. Everything we needed and more was provided and that made our stay thoroughly enjoyable! Highly recommended spot to unwind and relax and we will definitely be back!"

“Amazing unique stay. We had a lovely time at the lakeside bus. The location is very nice, and the school bus is stunning. The fire pit was fantastic and there's plenty of space inside the bus. Very clean and comfortable, and the host gave us all the information for the check-in and suggestions for activities to do in the area. Highly recommended!!”
