We are located in the Polincay valley at the foot of the Calbuco volcano in the direction of Lake Chapo, one of the most beautiful lakes in the region. The Chamiza River that descends from the volcano passes through our property which allows to enjoy its waters on hot days.

We have a poultry raising project, some pets that are part of the family, although they only live outside the house.
