Host profile image
I am just starting the whole host thing. I’m from Colorado and I love the mountains and waterfalls!! I work hard for what I want and when I saw this place I fell in love.

Why they chose this property

I look for this type of property all over the country. I’ve been in the area a few times and I was attracted to the sheer beauty the land has to offer.

What makes this property unique

This is the first property that I’ve found with this type of attraction so close to the cabin and it was actually available to own!!! I jumped on it!!
