Super indicação na região dos cânions
Excelente para quem quer se conectar com a natureza! O Junior e a Janice (proprietários) super atenciosos, nos deram dicas de locais, informaram roteiros para os cânions, além de contar a história das localidades. Quarto amplo, ficamos com vista para os cânions, escuta apenas o som do rio do Boi que fica perto e os pássaros. Café da manhã bem servido com variedades e fresquinho. Voltaremos mais vezes!
