About this property

Bird Lodge Tipi at Stepping Stone

Facing east towards the Swan Mountains on twenty beautiful, rolling acres are three tipis available for those looking for a more down-to-earth experience. Under the night sky, you can relax and enjoy the wonder of being/sleeping in an ancient conical structure. This experience is fully out of doors — no power, water, or heat/AC. It is advised to bring a flashlight or lantern.

BIRD LODGE tipi has TWO TWIN BEDS; additional guests can bring camping mats & sleeping bags. The bathroom (toilet/sink) is located in the glassblowing studio. An outdoor solar shower is located between the tipis and the studio. Towels and bed linens are provided.

Feel free to stop by the studio and check out the latest from the Proctor Studios team.

DIRECTIONS:
From Hwy 35 at Saint John Paul Catholic Church, it's the fourth driveway on your left immediately after Rising Mountain Assisted Living. Apple & Google Maps may direct you too far down Coverdell Road — look for the large, sculptural metal mailbox and gravel driveway. Please drive slowly as there are nesting birds in the grass and gravel along the road, as well as a small dog who doesn't navigate well around moving vehicles.

PARKING:
Park along the sides of the driveway near the studio. Driving up to the tipis is not permitted.

ENVIRONMENT:
If you are squeamish about insects, expect a hotel-style bathroom, or are uncomfortable with possible varied weather conditions, this destination is probably not for you.

PETS:
Well-behaved dogs are welcome; please notify us in advance.
