    This place was outstanding, from the outside to the inside! We were all in “awe” really!! Christian was so flexible with check in and check out times and made our stay the best we’ve ever had for a girls weekend! The hot tub was the added bonus...

"La joie de vivre" embodies a new connection with nature, a place you cannot see from the street, but you will slowly discover as you drive through a forest to reach this designer home, intended to immerse you in mother nature and offer you the privilege of total privacy. You will enjoy 30 fenced acres of serenity and a brand new house with space, comfort and privacy. Each room gives you access to more than 2000SF of covered porch, with sitting areas, a grill area and a 6 people hot tub for fun.
Retired and trying to enjoy this period of my life. I like to travel to Europe, where I have roots, but also in the USA and Mexico. I am clean and organized and leave a very light footprint.
