This is a fantastic, clean property. Great space to explore Alma, the Mosquito Range, and surrounding areas. Hosts are super nice and easy to work with.
We are a group of 19 cancer survivors that stayed two nights at the Alma house. It was absolutely wonderful for our group and Hannah and her husband were so responsive! Highly recommend and we’re already planning our trip back thank you guys so much.
