Naturforsker Cloud Forest Retreat

Huset vårt ligger på 40 hektar med privat eiendom som ligger an til Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve og er en av de siste private hjem før Reserve. Mer enn halvparten av landet vårt er i primær skyskog, men vi har også en stor rydding under huset vårt som er perfekt for visning av dyreliv. Faktisk, fordi vår plass er sammenhengende til mer enn 110.000 hektar med vernet skog, vil du sannsynligvis se mange flere dyr her enn i de fleste andre steder i Monteverde-sonen. Hvite ansikter aper, hylleaber, jakker, grårev, armadillos og agoutis er allment sett på vårt land, og flere skyskogspesialister, deriblant hyppige quetzals og svarte guaner, ses også ofte i nærheten av huset. Selv brocket hjort, som er svært uvanlig, er av og til sett her.

Fred Morrison bygde huset i midten av 1980-tallet. Han besøkte først Monteverde i 1981, og under oppholdet hadde han og to andre biologer piknik på eiendommen og tok den spektakulære utsikten over skogen og Nicoya-bukten i det fjerne. En uke senere, hans venner ringte for å fortelle ham at pakken var til salgs, og spurte om han ønsker å bli en del eier. De tre kjøpte eiendommen senere det året fra en av de originale Quaker-bønder. Siden da har hver eier bygget et hus eller hytte på landet. Ingen av boligene er i sikte av de andre, noe som gir deg en veldig privat opplevelse.

Selve huset ligger på en åsside i enden av en 500-fots oppkjørselen. Den ble designet med massevis av store, panoramavinduer for å få inn rikelig med naturlig lys og er orientert mot sørvest med dramatisk utsikt over Gulf of Nicoya og skogen kalesjen nedenfor.

I underetasjen inneholder stue med vedovn, spisestue, kjøkken, to boksen seter, et stort bad og et lite vaskerom med vaskemaskin og tørketrommel. Det er også en lang verandaen, hvor du kan sitte ser ut til Gulf of Nicoya og se opp til ni arter av kolibrier besøke forer. Ovenpå er det en taket balkong og to store soverom, ett med en queen size-seng og den andre med to fulle senger.

Hos oss, vil du være godt unna mas Santa Elena og hovedveien. Du vil være i stand til å sove til lyden av katydider, cikader, frosker og våkne opp for å choruse svartbellied wood quail og dueting grå-breasted wood wrens.

Offentlige busser passerer nederst i oppkjørselen flere ganger hver dag og drosjer er tilgjengelig til enhver tid. Det finnes flere gode restauranter bare noen få miles unna, så vel som en liten matbutikk og noen gave / kaffebarer. Inngangen til Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve er bare en ti minutters gange fra huset vårt. Men, selvfølgelig, som kan være mye lenger hvis du ser på dyrelivet eller planter!

Hvis du ønsker, kan vi hjelpe deg sørge for å ha en talentfull lokal kokk eller rengjøring besøk under oppholdet.

Had a wonderful stay here that exceeded all of our family’s expectations! This home is perched in the cloud forest, just a short walk from Monteverde. The home itself was like your own authentic biology field station tucked away in the jungle. As a fellow biologist, this is exactly what I was looking for! Our kids thought it was more like living in a movie set for some intrepid explorer! Raul was very helpful and accommodating during our check-in and check out and was such a pleasure to chat with. Lilian’s home cooked food was amazing and we had so many leftovers, that we hardly had to stock up on groceries during our stay-gave us more time to explore the property and the nearby Park trails! All in all, one of the best stays we had in Costa Rica!

Great communication from Laurie and Fred and wonderful support from the staff at the home. We enjoyed the amazing meals prepared by Lillian and went on both a day and night guided hike with Raul Jr. We loved the location and the natural surroundings. If you are traveling with small children like we were- just a note that it was a bit of a challenging space to “baby-proof”.

The hummingbirds were the highlight!

We loved this house. We only stayed two nights, but I could've stayed here several more days. We had dinner prepared by Lillian before our arrival so we didn't have to worry about going out for dinner that night. It was wonderful and lasted us a couple of days. Raul met us at the house when we arrived and gave a great overview. The highlight was the upstairs porch with the hummingbird feeders. We spent a lot of time out there watching the action and identified several different hummingbird species. There is a trail head very close to the house. Beware that a tree has fallen across one part of the trail. If you can get through there, the trail continues on the other side. Overall, this was an outstanding experience - one of my favorite memories in Costa Rica!

Great place near the Reserve

We love staying at the yellow house. It’s quiet, convenient if you are spending time at the MCFR, the views are great, and there are lots of opportunities for seeing wildlife. Raul is great!

Cloud Forest Getaway

My husband and I stayed in this beautiful, historic cabin with our three adult children. We knew it would be tight quarters with two bedrooms and one bathroom, but the house actually had lots of spaces for privacy --we loved the comfortable window seats--and an amazing porch and property with trails. Raul, Sr. met us and oriented us to the house. He was welcoming and very helpful. His son, Raul, Jr., gave us a tour of Monteverde and it was one of our highlights of our time in Costa Rica. Lillian cooked two delicious, traditional, homecooked meals and these were a treat. The views of the Nicoya Penisula and the abundant wildlife were amazing. I definitely recommend this experience for those coming to hike and to experience something more local.

Paradise in the cloud forest

We had such a wonderful time! Laurie and Fred were amazing and very responsive hosts. Raul (local to the house) helped us figure out tours in the area and transportation. Lillian made us a delicious Costa Rican meal for the night we arrived. This house is beautiful and comfortable. Our favorite part was the hummingbirds that visited feeders on the porches, and the other animals we saw right on the property. We enjoyed hiking the trails behind the house. This house was wonderful and we really felt welcomed! Do not miss this property! 10 out of 10 in every way!

Cloud forest comes to you!

Great cozy cabin right on edge of cloud forest. Very comfortable. Could see outside from almost everywhere in house. Wildlife just walks and flies right by. Saw almost as much wildlife from the windows and balcony as from guided tour in cloud forest. The hummingbird feeders totally worth it. Raul was incredibly friendly and helpful and his son provided an amazing guided tour in the cloud forest. Awesome stay!

Amazing Natural Getaway

This house nestled as close as possible to the Monteverde Cloud Forest is nothing short of a wildlife paradise. In the morning, you can hear the calls of toucans, motmots, and howler monkeys. At least six species of hummingbirds visited our feeders every day, and coatis and agoutis were a common sight. The scenic view of the trees and ocean from the second floor deck was amazing. In conclusion, I would highly recommend this property to anyone who wants an authentic Costa Rican experience.

Secluded Cloud Forest Hummingbird Retreat

This is a simple and beautiful place where we enjoyed spending a lot of our time at the property. The nature trail, the hummingbirds, the views, the other wildlife and the peace made each day a wonder.In the yard we saw 9 different species of hummingbirds, coatis, white-faced monkeys and other birds and butterflies. We especially liked having Lillian's food waiting for us each day so we didn't have to figure out where to eat! She prepared olla de carne, veggies, tortillas, guac, the best pico ever, rice and more. Raul was wonderful and welcoming. We had a night tour already planned, but I would have preferred to do one at the property with Raul Jr. because there is so much we didn't see on our own! A few things to note are how remote this place actually is and how daunting the drive is (but all the roads in MV are not good) and also the house has zero curtains or shades, so the views are wonderful, but it's impossible to keep the light out. It was also chilly in January-- we used the wood burning stove and could've used slippers (the floors are gorgeous, but cold and slippery). This place won't be for everyone, but it was perfect for us! After 3 weeks touring Costa Rica, this was our favorite place where we felt the most authentic experience of our trip.

Amazing stay!

The house was bigger and nicer than I expected. The view is incredible! So fun spotting coatimundis and hummingbirds even from inside the house through the big windows all around. Raul was the most helpful and friendly host - he even pulled our car out of a ditch! Lillian's dinner was from heaven - perfect meal for our family after arriving from a long day of travel. Thank you for such a nice time in Monteverde!

Amazing property, wishing we stayed longer.....

We had an incredible stay at this cozy and well-equipped cabin! The surroundings are absolutely stunning, and Raul was an amazing host. He went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable—he was very flexible with our changing arrival time and even waited for us late at night as we encountered some challenges with the rental car. He also helped set up a fantastic night hike with his son and showed us the unique plants around the property. His attention to detail and kindness truly stood out.A special thank you to Lillian for the delicious dinner that awaited us after a long day of travel—it was so comforting and even lasted for two nights. We absolutely loved being away from the crowds, enjoying the peace and quiet of this stunning location. Sitting on the porch, watching hummingbirds dance through the rain, was pure magic. This place is a true gem, and we’d recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and peaceful retreat. Thank you, Raul, for everything!

Enjoyable Monteverde Stay

The house sits on a beautiful land - lush green, peaceful, with lots of animals. The hummingbird feeder provided by the owners is a high hit. Within minutes of hanging the feeder up, we saw more than twenty kind of hummingbirds! The house is only 10 min walk from the monteverde cloud forest biological preserve, which makes it convenient to visit the preserve.We also went on a night tour with a tour guide the owner recommended. The tour was very informative, and it was fun looking for animals together with our guide. Laurie, the owner, is extremely responsive and helpful. Thank you, Laurie, for sharing your beautiful home with us!

A nice cozy home at a good location

The house is old but kept clean and cozy. It is at a high position on the mountain with a good view of the forest and the ocean. We waked up morning with birds' song and the hummingbirds are not afraid of human at all. The meal prepared by Lilliana is very tasty. Our family enjoyed our stay of 2 nights.

We loved this house and the surrounding property. The trail on the property was fun to hike. The hummingbirds were absolutely amazing! Monteverde is a super place to hike with Howler, Spider, Capuchin monkeys, Coatis, and many beautiful birds. We even saw the elusive Resplendent Quetzal! My only complaint is the terrible roads so full of potholes. A bit scary to drive and caused us some carsickness. Otherwise loved the isolation and new habitat. Thank you!

Highlight of trip to Costa Rica

We loved staying here! Raul was amazing to work with and he was so great to help us set up a night hike with his son (which was amazing) and helped us figure out transportation there. He was great and showed us plants around the property. We also loved the dinner made by Lillian! It was delicious and fed us for 2 nights. So wonderful to have food waiting after a long day of travel. Totally recommend this place. It was a little far from the town if you don’t have transportation but many of the places are hard to walk to if you want an awesome location with a view that can’t be beat! Sitting on the porch watching hummingbirds even when it was pouring rain was an incredible experience

Cloud Forest Cabin - A must!

Perfect cabin situated above the trees of the cloud forest! We were juat amazed by the view of this place! They had everything we needed to stay comfortably. Very nice sitting area on the second floor where you can feed the hummingbirds and watch other wildlife. We had tons of hummingbirds in the day and bats flying around at night, super cool! Toucanets and Motmots where also a common sighting. Thank you Raul for tracking down a whole Gunabana fruit for us while we were there! The property is very close to the Monteverde cloud forest reserve. You could walk to it but is a little uphill from the property. We decided to just park at the official parking spot a little ways down the road and it worked out good for us. Its also a short ride/drive to downtown Monteverde with everything you need. Definitely a special place amd so glad to have stayed here.

A private extension of the nature preserve

Wonderful home next to the park. Huge property with very well maintained trails, it’s functionally part of the nature preserve. Highly recommend Raul Jr’s night tour if he’s available, it was outstanding. Incredible to stay so close to the cloud forrest entrance. We saw many birds from the porch, can see the Pacific Ocean on a clear day. Long term ecology conscious owner, warm and joyful local support folks. Can’t recommend enough, the perfect way to experience the cloud forrest.
