Casita

The casita was perfect! It is as described and better. Country setting, new/modern conveniences, comfy bed, hot shower, very clean, and aesthetically appealing. Prompt response from host. I would definitely recommend Selah.

We loved the casita! It looked exactly as advertised. It was so cute and cozy and the bed was very comfortable. We had stormy weather during our stay so the wifi was spotty but we just used our hotspot. Our only complaint regarding the property is the lack of proper signage for the entrance. We traveled 20 minutes past the entrance looking for a property sign or address marker that wasn’t there. Our second day, there was a very small picket sign but if we didn’t already know what we were looking for we would have missed the entrance again. I’m glad we came during daylight hours or we would’ve been hopelessly lost.
