Design this space thinking about the comfort of enjoying nature. Enjoy tranquility, rest and peace. It is a cabin with an excellent location, for a stay or a getaway to the Springs. A dream range, with a back door that takes you to a space where you can watch a night full of stars. My favorite part of this space is the soaking tub designed for taking a relaxing bath with doors closed or doors open so you can have visual contact with the outside.
