According to the recommendation of the kottayam district collector, I visited G.K's river view home stay, the winner of state tourism award for the best home stay facility in Kerala. I was quite impressed with George and family. George is a repository of knowledge and an ambassador for tourism development. Truly he deserves the award. The place has lush green surroundings water ways, boating facility, free from any pollution and can have a feel of the country side I its natural beauty.
