Mt. Apo Highland Resort [Mirror Lake}

I had the chance to visit Mt. Apo Highland Resort (Mirror and Hillside) in Kapatagan Valley in Digos, Davao Sur. It was the 2nd tourist spot the participants and organizers of the Davao Food Appreciation Tour visited during the event.  It was the second itinerary for our May 5, 2012

Personally, I was so excited because it was my first time.  Everyone seems eager to hurdle the more than an hour travel to highlands.  When were awed by the view we saw.  Let me share some of them through the following photos:


The welcome signage!
Name of the resort ^^ Indeed the lake is a mirror because you will be inspired of the reflection of nature seen in the water.



Here's a reflection of the trees.



Some of there good for four (4) persons cottages.



These cottages is good for 2 but if an additional foam can be added if there are more than two of you.
Additional bed also means additional payment.



The CR!
I thought it's another building - not a CR of course!
I've never been inside but the place seems clean and there was no complains from those who used it.



The sofa below the cottage that's good for 4.  It rained for a moment and those seats were used.

I wish I can share some pics with me in it, but they are at home at the moment.  It took me 2 weeks and more to finish this post so you can really imagine how tight my sked is.  But I hope to make more updates in the coming week.

    I've been planning to visit this place but could not seem to have the opportunity. It seems like a nice place to sit back and just relax. Visiting thru Tuesday travels here.

Lake Apo: The Plan and the Visit

Image
The first time I saw Lake Apo in the Facebook account of the owner, Dr. Almer Alfonso, I said to myself, I am going there.  So I clicked Like on the photo and then later ask Dr. Almer how to get there.  Summer was over and first semester started and I still can't put into my schedule a trip to Bukidnon.  I desired to see the place alone.  But then thinking it would be more fun to have company, I tagged the photo to my fellow Iligan blogger, Pinay Travelista .  I am betting she got a mole on her foot thus her travel blog.   Indeed she agreed to make me realize my wish without a second thought.  We thought we could make it last August during the last weekend where Iligan enjoyed a long weekend.   But Dr. Almer was on vacation in the US.  September made us really busy for the planning of the coming MBS5 so the plan was put aside to an unknown schedule. Before September ended, I know I am going to make the plan a reality.  I shared the plan with fellow Iligan bloggers and invited ever...
