Perfection. Quiet. Calm. Natural. Everything I needed and never wanted to leave. And sooooo grateful there was coffee and filtered water. Close enough to restaurants, shopping, pioneer town, the national park etc… but just far enough that you can forget it all exists. Was wonderful listening to the Great Horned Owls.
