What's it like to live in a landscape painting? | Guanshan Homestay

| Guanshan Homestay. I would call Guanshan Homestay the hidden gem among all the homestays I've stayed at this year! This check-in truly fulfilled my fantasy of a perfect vacation!

🌳 The natural minimalist aesthetic of the exterior design captivated me from the moment I approached. The homestay is built on the banks of Xiaodongjiang Lake, facing the green mountains in the distance. The morning sunlight shimmers on the lake's surface, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene. There are many attractions nearby. A 3-minute walk takes you to the Misty Xiaodongjiang, where you can embark on a magical journey. A 20-minute drive reveals the red cliffs of Gaoyiling and the clear waters of Bailang Xiaoerhai.

🛏 The room features a 270° panoramic floor-to-ceiling window, offering stunning lake and mountain views from the comfort of your bed. The lake-view bathtub adds a touch of luxury. Soaking in it at night melts away all fatigue. The XGIMI home theater system with Dolby Surround Sound provides a private cinema-like experience. Other amenities include a smart toilet, instant hot water, chilled Dongjiang fish in the mini-fridge, air conditioning, a silent fresh air system, and luxurious toiletries. The bedding is incredibly soft, guaranteeing a cloud-like sleeping experience!

💁‍♀ I must commend their service. The "Xiao Du Butler" is available 24/7. Upon check-in, they helped me plan my itinerary and booked tickets for scenic spots. When I wanted to try Chenzhou's signature Sha Zhu Fen (pork offal noodles) and salmon feast, a quick message was all it took. There's even a thoughtful morning mist wake-up call service and a starry night projection mode in the evening, adding a touch of romance.

🐶 The homestay also has an adorable greeter named "Little Coke," a Corgi who loves shaking hands, fetching balls, and posing for photos. Spending time playing with this enthusiastic and charming dog was a delightful way to unwind and forget about travel fatigue.

Friends, take my advice and choose Guanshan Homestay when you visit Dongjiang Lake! Trust me, you'll fall in love with this place!
