You will need a car to get around out here. We suggest a Four or All Wheel Drive, though the roads to the property are all in good condition. The nearest gas station is the Lone Butte (N on rt. 14 about 10 minutes) across the street from our favorite local brewery, Beer Creek Brewing Company (full menu, live music on certain nights, and you have to try their green chili cheesecake!!). > The water from tap is fine to drink but is kind of mineral'y. You can make coffee and cook with the tap water, but we provide filtered spring water for drinking. > Si parla italiano y un poquito de espagnol!
