Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room itself was cute, but that’s where it ends. They had a portable bathroom/shower facility that offered 3 showers with toilets & one with a toilet, no shower. They gave you one towel & asked you to reuse it. You had to walk down a dusty path to get there so the floors in the bathrooms were always muddy. There were not enough to accommodate the amount of guests. People were always waiting outside for someone else to come out. As for the water in the showers, you may or may not have any hot water or no water at all. We were scheduled to stay for 5 days.. we only made it 2 and found a more accommodating place. Since leaving, they have opened their new bathhouses that have more space for guests & are up to date.

It was a nice experience. The staff are friendly and reliable. However, who ever decided to install the bathroom mirror all the way up so no one can see their faces needs a pay cut. The actual Tipi is clean and they provided adequate blanket/ comforter for the freezing weather in the morning. Overall the experience is unique and I would still recommend this place.

We loved the tipi. The beds were so comfortable, check in was super easy. The roads could be improved, we had a mini-van and driving to and from our site was tough, trying to avoid all the potholes.

I loved this staying here! We had our 8 month old with us and we were able to get the feeling of camping with the convenience of having a safe indoor area for her. And I loved that even though we were out and away from everything, it was still only a 10 minute drive to the store! It was perfect!

Great experience! There were no stores nearby, so bring your water/snacks. Also, bring some chairs if you want to spend time outside your tent. The bed was comfortable, and the staff were wonderful.

The tents are nice including beds. The remainder is disgusting and for the money paid we felt ripped off. Toilets and so showers are dirty and every other camp site has more convenient. The entire property is without any development. Just rough, dusty land. Any facility is improvised and of lowest quality. Calling this glamping and requesting this amount of money is a tourist trap. Do not go there.

The property was nice overall. The staff were very nice snd very cooperative. The tents were nice and cozy. There is just one thing that beeds to be inproved is the number of bugs in the tent. There were like a 3 dozen spiders so need to do somethig avout that. The bedding was great. The tents were spacious. There was nice common bonfire area for everyone to sit and chat and do different activities which was very nice. The bathrooms were well maintained and there was abundant hot water for showers as well. The location was also nice and close to shopping areas maybe a 8 to 10 minute drive All in all i would rate the experience at 4 out of 5.

Charming. Very clean. Mattresses felt brand new and so comfy. There was so much going on and things to do at the campground, my kids never once complained about the lack of electronic use. Of our 8 day road trip, this was our very favorite night.
