We are in our 80s we were extremely comfortable in every way. Our cabin had a bathroom The water heated quickly our tent was beautifully yet simply decorated we stayed 6 days and would have enjoyed staying longer We loved the look out deck where we could sit and view mount Rushmore. What more could you ask
I never leave a bad review but it was extremely not what i thought. 2 fans for 3 people in 97 degree weather. Charges on my credit card i never spent. Not glamorous camping at all. No food allowed in tent… no electricity and crappy coffee.
Our first impressions weren’t great-negative initial staff interaction. There were other minor issues along the way as well. The food was very good and as a rule the staff were great. I was able to provide feedback to the general manager directly and she handled the our concerns promptly and to our satisfaction. I would not hesitate to try them again.
This is “glamping” at its best. Thoughtful and unique design elements. Beautiful vistas everywhere. Privacy and yet community accessibility in the same place - footsteps away. The view of Mount Rushmore was a bonus feature. The food was so much better than expected. I would highly recommend.
Overall, I don’t think the place/amenities are worth it. I got a suite since I was on a long road trip and wanted to shower as well. The on-site dining is fantastic. If you have not gone camping before and you want to start off with “glamping” this might be a suitable option. My soap dispenser was broken and one of the fans didn’t work. I personally don’t think it’s worth the price. I was supposed to get a bandana for my dog which I never received either. The room was also very dirty. Items left over clearly from previous guests. Very disappointing.
We really enjoyed our stay. The only bummer was that we seemed to be near a tent with teenagers and kids that were quite loud between 9 pm and 11 pm on a weekday.
My wife and I loved our stay here. We had a Stargazer tent and the view above the bed was incredible, we even got to see meteors one night! We now want to go and check out some of the other Under Canvas locations, it was top notch!
My first “yurt” experience was a great one. Nice common areas, cozy tents, friendly staff & healthy, delicious food options in the restaurant. I would definitely stay again at another Under Canvas
This place is AMAZING! Staff is incredibly accommodating, the tents are clean and nicely appointed, the food and selections are high quality, and the overall resort convenient to every national park. Incredible!!
