This place is well stocked, extra toilet paper under the sink, extra paper towels under the kitchen sink, lots of towels, etc. it is right on Main St, not very far out of town, but far enough that you don’t have people walking by all the time. We had 8 of us, and it was very spacious.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Sherman

Host profile image
My wife and I have been visiting Lava Hot Springs several times a year since 2006. It has been a favorite weekend getaway for our family, and we've introduced so many others to it who now consider it a favorite of theirs, as well!

I am a Michigan native, and my wife, Monika, grew up in Utah, where we live. When we're not soaking in the hot pools, you can find us checking out live music, getting together with friends and their kids, or planning our next Carnival cruise.

We love visiting Lava Hot Springs so much we decided to buy property there and help create an amazing experience for others to love it, too. If you want to know more about the town and the things to do there, let me know!

Why they chose this property

We've stayed at Top of the Town many times with our extended family and several friends. Lava is such a great social town, and there's no better place to stay with people you like than this house! It's especially good for families with younger kids, because the kids can play in the lower level while the adults hang out on the main level.

Plus, you can walk to everything from here! We like to park the car and leave it until we're ready to go home. With this location, you can do just that.

What makes this property unique

For more than a decade we have been coming to Lava several times a year and stayed at just about every place in town. While we love staying at a lot of places when we go with just our immediate family, Top of the Town is the best place to stay when we have a good group of friends or family joining us. We're sure you'll appreciate that, too.
