I like the atmosphere around there. Staffs are friendly and everything is clean. Only problem I found that the heater is not sufficient enough to heat the space we have. So, you feel cold in the night time.

Great bed. Great glamping. Website could have information about showers (times etc) and just better description of the tents to clarify some things and the road around is very very bumpy and hard go navigate in the dark. But overall it was a great stay!

The property was gorgeous. We stayed in a family Tipi. There was plenty of room and the kerosene heater kept it very comfortable at night. The bathroom has plenty of hot water and AMAZING water pressure. The property was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS and well maintained. We will absolutely return.
