Here’s one review from Trip Advisor, from a couple who said they stayed there in November:
“Staying on Estancia Los Potreros was the absolute highlight of our trip to Argentina. Kevin and Lou are the best hosts and they, together with their staff, make you feel like you’ve arrived in paradise! The horses are lovely, the food is delicious, the setting is beautiful and I could go on like this forever… It is just impossible to put in words how perfect this place is. We cried in the taxi when we left and we would love to go back again soon!”
