The Fruition Center is happy to offer the Bus Cabin as a cozy space to stay while visiting. This historical bus brought the foundering family to Costa Rica from Minnesota over 5 years ago. Her name is Betsy the Bliss Bus and she lives on as a place for guests to enjoy a quite private stay. The Bus Cabin has running water and a kitchen, one double bed, and a small living room.
