We stayed with another couple, as a little get away for ourselves. The house was everything advertised, and more. A hidden gem, a quick drive from town. Taking in nature, while enjoying the hot tub and sauna for relaxation. Games room didn’t get used much, as we couldn’t get enough of the outside beauty. But we did sneak a few games of pool in. The house was wonderfully maintained and clean. Excellent appliances for all our indoor and outdoor cooking needs!Thank you so much to Ricardo and Angela, who would respond within mins if we had a question or looking for advice.

Great stay

Casa Mariposa was the perfect spot to stay for myself and my family. With close access and a free day pass to the Pinery, the house is ideal for those that need an accessible, comfortable place to stay if your group isn't up to camp. With a sauna, hot-tub, whirlpool and a fire pit, it feels like being the campground but with so many extras. Lots of indoor activites for rainy days and additional outside games and things to do for kids. Just the right amount of communication with our host. Place was cozy and comfortable. Clean and organized. I'd totally recommend!
