The 222-acre property is about an hour's drive from Dominical and is accessed via a gravel road that connects to the Dominical-San Isidro highway. Several bridges ensure safety and accessibility throughout the year. The internal road leads to various structures, including the cabin, toilet block, parking lot, and office/accommodation area. The stables are located near the waterfall track, which offers a scenic 700-meter walk or horseback ride through the rainforest, with pasturelands situated above the grounds.
