    Host was extremely helpful and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Cottage was perfect for us as a base from which to explore.

    It's quite place and beautiful view. When it was heavy snow there, the property asked us to take care and support anything necessary. It’s also good for family.

    Absolutely gorgeous place, good Internet to help overcome no TV. The reviews about how responsive and nice the owner is are right on point.

    This is super peaceful and yet close to so many things to see! The town is Selfoss is just a few minutes down the road and in the other direction, all the splendor of the south coast waterfalls await. The house is very clean and well outfitted for a comfortable stay. I plan on returning to this property.

    We enjoyed a weekend stay with easy access for day trips to Reykjavik, the Golden Circle and Vik, which allowed us to see many of the top sites in Iceland while staying in quiet, beautiful country scenery. The house was well-appointed and perfectly sized for our family of three. Would recommend to a friend!

    Lovely cabin near so many Iceland highlights! Hosting was thoughtful and thorough, lots of great details to this shared space. We greatly enjoyed watching the sun set on the flock and herd in the valley. What a delightful gift of a home ?

    Property was just right for my fly fishing adventure and some sightseeing. Very quiet and beautiful. Good proximity to essentials and destinations on south coast!

    Upon arrival, we were impressed by the beautiful landscapes. The cabin itself was clean and modern. From the central space, one window offered a view of Icelandic horses. The other was nearly floor to ceiling where we caught sight of the Northern Lights. Renate was quick to respond and help us when we reached out. The guidebook in the cottage has helpful information as well. The cottage is in good proximity to Reykjavik and close to Ring Road for those planning to drive it. If you’re looking to escape to a slice of natural paradise, I highly recommend staying here- we had an amazing time!

    My only wish was that we got to stay longer! We absolutely loved our stay in the cabin. The location near the river was amazing- I couldn’t pull myself away from the view on the front porch and out of the front windows. The check in process was extremely easy and the host was amazing. Very clean and had everything we needed! We will recommend the cabins as a must-stay location to any friends who want to visit Iceland.
