This was such a fun stay and a core memory for me and my son! The facilities were so convenient and had a fire pit, playground, sauna, and yard games. I wasn’t sure if we would have places to charge in the wagon but it had outlets and even had an outdoor outlet to plug in my EV. Would definitely come back!
The place has a good layout, it’s comfortable and had everything we needed for a great stay!

The aesthetics for this place was top notch, the stars were epic. The bed was comfy but the problem was the heating. It not only couldn't warm the sleeping area, the blankets weren't adequate and the heater had to be drained every 2 hours.
The tents were cute and well maintained
However the small heater provided was insufficient to keep us comfortably warm
Loved the central fire pit area setup
It was fun socializing with other guests staying on property
Great day, clean, shower, bathroom area, convenient to the grocery store for food if needed the on-site accommodations have daily supplies that you can use/buy which is very helpful. Felt safe, we definitely stay again easy drive to the national park and other activities
Perfect place to get away. Beautiful, comfortable, and staff was amazing. Cant wait to return.

The view was gorgeous. It was definitely clean. we did stay in a wagon for the night. definitely was freezing the whole night. i would definitely recommend bringing a heater, they have one already in the room but it only heats for a couple then blows cold air. Therefore i recommend before staying in one of those to bring an extra blanket to stay warm and a heater to have in the room. There was a lot of mosquitos inside the room as well so i would also recommend bring bug spray. I did like how the bathroom has the shower there. i would recommend wearing shower shoes. They do have a little store you can purchase snacks or wood to use. overall it was a great stay just wish i was more warm at night. Overall the space and outdoor area is nice.
Beautiful property owned and ran by a super friendly host. Everything was clean and neat. I will be staying here again and would highly recommend it to anyone who is traveling to the area.
Such a cool little place to stay. Property was very clean dispite the construction. Can't wait to see it completed. Just reccommed a community sink for those of us that grill. Our stay was in a covered wagon which was so beautiful, the ac was heaven. Definitely coming again!
