The property
This is the former Hostería La Valdivia, at kilometer 3 on the road from Jardín toward Riosucio. The photo above really is the place: a lake with a wooden pier and mountains behind, which is exactly what people mean when they search "lago Valdivia Jardín". Booking.com lists an outdoor pool on a sun terrace, a kids play area, a restaurant and a bar.
Address and distance to the square
Km 3 Vía Jardín - Riosucio. From the listing coordinates to the main square it is 3.0 km, not counting bends or slopes. Guests give the location 9.3. Outside town, silence and chilly nights come with the deal.
What the listing advertises
For the afternoon chill, which comes early in Jardín, it lists a pool on a sun terrace. Every unit has a mountain view. To keep busy: a play area. Breakfast can be à la carte.
