Fodor's Expert Review Río Mel Lodge
Río Meliquina, San Martín de los Andes, Neuquén, 8370, Argentina
Taking "off the beaten track" to a whole new level, this homey lodge sits on the banks of the Meliquina River in the middle of Parque Nacional Lanín and is a favorite with both fly fishermen and families. The spacious suites are comfortable, if modestly decorated, and all rooms have river views. Since there's no cell phone reception, guests have no choice but to enjoy the serenity and swap modern tech activities for walking, horseback riding, and kayaking. Homemade meals are prepared by your hosts—the delightful Echavarria clan.
