The owner lovingly restored this Hacienda from a ruin and, in the process, created an economic hub in the town.

Tips:
The owner is only there a few weeks of the year. We were lucky enough to catch him and got a personal tour. You should NOT miss that opportunity if he is in town. Make sure to ask.
You don't need a space heater -- even on cold days. Someone will come and make a fire for you and give you hot water bottles. It was so wonderfully warm!
Walk through all the buildings and take in all the art. There really is a lot to see.
Get out to the town and take advantage of all the hiking trails. read less
