Escape the Heat at Mount Qingcheng: A Gathering of 8 Families in a Forest Villa

The recent weather in Chengdu has been scorching hot 🌞. Every weekend, all I want is to find a cool place to relax. This time, with friends, we gathered 8 families and brought the kids along to a vacation villa 🏡 in Mount Qingcheng. It was so comfortable—everyone was thrilled with the gathering. - 🏡 The entire courtyard was incredibly cozy, with a huge swimming pool. It was super photogenic 📸—perfect for snapping pics. The unicorn float 🦄 was a hit with both kids and adults. We played in the water 💧, sang karaoke 🎤, played mahjong 🀄, and even golf. We also tried pottery (playing with clay). It was such a joyful weekend. - 🍱 You can bring your own food—there’s a kitchen to cook in. We opted for the owner to prepare meals for us. They offer hotpot 🍲 and barbecue 🍡🍢, with a mild broth option for the kids. At night, after the kids fell asleep, the adults grilled 🍡 and chatted together. It felt absolutely wonderful. - 🏠 Every room has a balcony where you can drink tea 🍵 or read a book 📖. The rooms come with bathtubs 🛁 and even offer a view of the starry sky 🌌. The bathroom 🚽 and shower 🚿 are separated for convenience. The villa is fully smart-home equipped and extremely private. As a standalone villa, there’s zero disturbance. You can even catch the sunrise 🌅 the next morning. - 🏖️ In summer, all you need is water play to keep the kids entertained all day. They were so happy and content. The mountain spring water is refreshingly cool, though we don’t recommend soaking in it all day. - 📝 Tips ✅ Bring swimsuits and water toys (like inflatables or water guns 🔫). ✅ The temperature difference between day and night is significant—pack a jacket and extra clothes. ✅ The homestay serves breakfast (porridge, steamed buns, etc.), but you might want to bring milk 🥛 and bread 🍞 for the kids. - 🏨: Mount Qingcheng · Shanzhu Mufeng Designer Hot Spring Hotel 📍: No. 46, Group 7, Gusi Village, Jiezi Town, Chongzhou City, Sichuan Province, China
