I can't put in words how much beautiful my experience at La Casita was. The mountain views were breathtaking. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything I needed to feel at home. There were beautiful touches all around the property--pots and pots of gorgeous plants, sculptures, paintings, string lights at night. I loved sitting in the hot tub and by the fire pit. And it's *quiet*. Peacefully, magically quiet. It was almost surreal.

Chryssa and Curtis were very warm and welcoming, and their assistant, Caroline, was a godsend. She helped me conquer my fears of driving up the mountain road to get to the house. I'm very thankful to all of them!

Be warned: If you're from a flat part of the country like I am, driving up the mountain will make your palms sweat at first! I was so scared at first that I wasn't sure if I'd be able to stay. But you'll totally get used to it. By the second day, I was winding up and down those mountains like no one's business. :-)

I also made several stops at the general store not too far from the property, which was surprisingly well-priced. There are a few restaurants nearby as well, but I decided to stock up on groceries and eat simply during my stay.

All in all, I couldn't have picked a more PERFECT place to enjoy a few days away from the constant East Coast hustle. I would absolutely, 100% stay at La Casita again and recommend it to anyone looking for a true retreat.
