The tater top hut was the perfect place for myself, my husband, and my 12 year old mini schnauzer to stay for a couple of nights. The hut and property were just enough out of town to enjoy the peace and wilderness, but still a small drive to do anything you wanted. It is a true small home with everything you may need and the hosts are just the sweetest! We had so much fun on our little get away, thanks Crystal & Matt!

Nice, cozy getaway.

This place is perfect for any folks wanting to get a relaxing stay but still have a closeness to the city. I was close to enough to visit the Space Center, Monte Sano(great place to hike and play disc golf), check out the comic book stores, and have a variety of restaurants. Next visit, I will eat at some of the more local establishments near Gurley.
