Lovely Property
My room was beautiful and very clean. The kitchen access easy and comfortable- all the guests I met were kind and easy going. I enjoyed the sauna and a massage with Tim in the solarium. Lots to see walking about the property and so nice to be able to take advantage of the shared spaces or sit alone on my room's large porch. The sweet kitties kept me company. I'd expected more from the pond or the dipping pools. Otherwise, this will be a retreat spot I return to! Many thanks.

This place is as close to real magic as you will find
This place is something truly special and we will definitely be repeat guests. There is no better place to decompress and enjoy the beauty of the mountains. The remoteness of the location just adds to the appeal. The staff and pernanent residents of the White Lotus were lovely and helpful and clearly took great pride in the grounds and all of the buildings. Our room was clean and stunningly beautiful. We've never slept so well. The sauna was clean and well stocked with logs for the stove. We had the pleasure of talking to Nelson about the local vineyards and he was a wealth of knowledge and gave us some fantastic suggestions. Overall, this place is paradise for creative types and nature lovers. We are already planning our next trip!

This is a lovely place off the beaten path! Our room was gorgeous. We stayed in the Zen Barn in the Zen Suite. Being in bed was like being in our own little bubble. It was so incredibly quiet! We walked the property and saw geese, birds, etc. There WERE other guests, we saw the cars, but everyone kept to themselves. The relaxation is real. The property housekeeping manager was accessible and helpful. We definitely want to go back!!! Thank you!
