  2. We visited for a month the summer of 2013 and fell so in love with the place that we are moving there for at least 6 months starting the summer of 2014. The lake offers a great combination of serenity, beauty, culture and comfort. The climate is perfect and we were nearly always able to get a secure wifi connection, making it easy to work there when you need to. We look forward to learning and appreciating more about this special place.
