“Fossatun Sunset Cottage delivers a uniquely Icelandic experience with its troll-themed decor and impressive vinyl collection, adding character to family stays; plus, the geothermal hot tubs and surrounding nature trails invite relaxation and exploration. Cabins facing the falls are worth the splurge. It's a cozy, culturally rich retreat.”
