Also known as Cabinas Chacón, Savegre Mountain is located in San Gerardo de Dota, in the Talamanca mountains in the midst of a precious ecosystem. Here you will find a deep cloud forest filled with massive oaks and other native species. The woods serve as a sanctuary for a large number of fauna and innumerable species of insects, amphibians, amazing plants and colorful birds, a paradise for birdwatchers.

As you wind around Cerro de la Muerte on the Interamerican Highway, you will see the lush vegetation become stunted and then diminish. The turn off sign for San Gerardo de Dota is on Kilometer 80, driving for 9 kilometers down on a well mantained gravel road you reach this narrow, pristine mountain valley at 2200 meters of altitude. San Gerardo de Dota has become a paradise for birdwatchers, hikers, and trout fishers.

Mr. Efraín Chacón and his family arrived here in 1954 and were the first pioneers settling down in this beautiful valley. The Chacón Family not only have developed this wonderful accommodations, but have over the course of the years taken advantage of the crisp weather to grow apples, plums, and peaches, which you sample in meals. This is unique!

Rainbow trout abound in the Savegre River which is great for fly fishing. Over 170 beautiful bird species have been observed in the area and its multiple hiking trails in the magical Cloud Forest. This is known as one of the best places in the country to observe Quetzals, who live here year round. The Hotel hosts the Quetzal Education Research Center Complex (QERC), a cooperative venture between the Chacón Family and Southern Nazarene University in Oklahoma.
