„Veľmi pekné miesto.Bola som tu z rodinou a páčilo sa nám.“

„Osada určite funguje. Nie je to bežné múzeum, kde celý deň sedí pani za okienkom a predáva lístky. Určite si treba aspoň deň dopredu zavolať a dohodnúť sa na čase návštevy, samozrejme pokiaľ máte záujem o sprievodcu a výklad s ukážkami (kontakty sú uvedené vyššie, takisto je možnosť sa preklikať na náš Facebook). Záujem o návštevu našej osady nás vždy poteší. Osada je projektom občianskeho združenie, takže sa mu venujeme v našom voľnom čase. Osada je vždy v určitom procese, robia sa rôzne údržby a opravy. Čo samozrejme nemá žiadny vplyv na zážitok, ktorý je u nás možné zažiť.“

„Z osady nic není,jen pozůstatky staveb v zemi a kočka která tam bydlí,škoda času a kroků “
