Stayed Sep 26, 2025I loved the quirkiness of the house. Quiet, remote, with everything we needed (coffee and coffee maker). We slept well. I thought I lost my purse - Ingrid found it in the house and mailed it to me. I’d stay again.

Stayed Oct 5, 2024This property is one of the best places we have ever stayed in. The two-bedroom house is uniquely decorated with artifacts from around the world and the local area. We were able to sit out front at night and see the stars. The other properties and the area are also very interesting. We have stayed in the best hotels around the world and this place is equal to or better. Too bad the owner was away and we were unable to meet her.

Stayed Sep 14, 2024Check in with quick and easy I love the creativity they put into their property. It was awesome. There was plenty of room for more people to stay, but it was just me. Marathon is a tiny town and the location was perfect for me to go out to the post where I had an event to attend. Ingrid is very friendly and I will definitely stay again!

Stayed Feb 16, 2023My best friend and I stayed in the Spirit Room during our annual trek down to Marathon. We loved the decor and the little community of homes - we couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Stayed Dec 11, 2022The Spirit Room was exactly as advertised. Quirky, strange and absolutely perfect. Ingrid was lovely and wonderful. Slept great. Windmill patio was perfect for star viewing. And, yes, it is totally fine for families as long as you understand that La Loma del Chivo is a once in a lifetime experience full of endless wonder. Helicopter parents need not apply.
