Description
We are an elderly couple who started a dream 40 years ago on the lakeside of one of the most beautifully lakes on the Chilean Patagonia.
We need help to maintain our beautiful 3 acre park where we keep three guest houses for rent during the Southern Hemisphere summer.
We are former international world travelers who love to cook and take care of our plants and home. Enjoy the company of visitors and love to have good conversations by the incredible lakeside views on the afternoons.
