Unicorn Lodge:Riverfront: Best of Costa Rica Award
Unicorn Lodge is a unique Cedar log cabin nestled on the banks of the Sevegre River in the magical town of San Gerardo De Dota, Costa Rica. As dawn turns to daybreak there is nothing more delightful than being drawn from slumber by the sunlight glistening through open windows as it makes it's way through the 200+ year old Oak trees and the enchanting sounds of the powerful Sevegre River echoeing through each corner of the property. One would question if this is the most serene place on earth.
