Wonderful experience !
Justin’s directions to the property are SPOT ON. It is very easy to get to using the description. The tipi was wonderful! The site was a good size and the access to the trails nearby were a bonus. The wood oven stove was clean and in good condition. Everything went off without a hitch honestly. Very fun!

An amazing spot
Travis is great for sharing his piece of earth with us! The teepee is on a platform as seen in the pics and the woodstove really does keep it toasty. Travis was great in answering my questions and helping us to plan for our trip. We knew when we booked that weather might work against us. The first night and morning were great. Chilly outside but cozy in the teepee. The second day we errored in our judgment of the weather and while we're were out hiking it poured and the Temps were low. In all honesty if we had wanted to needed to, I think we could have started up the fire and done ok, but we opted to call it. Like I said we had realistic expectations that it might be a reality. It speaks more to our lack of hardiness than the expectations of a teepee. I am super excited to get back sometime this summer though and to take advantage of the location of this property in relation to hiking trails in the national forest. My boys thought it was an awesome experience and are also excited to try again with a little more preparing.

Lovely Off-Grid Camping
Beautiful location with a ton of privacy. Couldn’t find the outhouse anywhere, but I also didn’t ask so that’s nobodies fault but my own & the air mattress needed to be blown up every few hours unless you don’t mind sleeping on the wood floor. We stayed during a 28° night, as long as you keep the wood burning and refill every few hours you’ll be good. It was a great place to unplug & unwind :)
