I did some googling and La Mansion in San jose de las matas sounds most likely the place.

It sounds like a cool area that i would like to explore....but i dont really need anything all that fancy. Perhaps AC but thats about it.

Wouldn't you? Let the tourists stick to Punta Cana and Sosua/Cabarete. The longer we keep the other places from the masses the longer we can enjoy them.

not sure I entirely agree, although its nice to have a place to yourself, we need to get people out on the road visiting places ,spending money and coming back again
