family camping weekend

Our kids enjoyed tent camping and we appreciated the bunkie with a comfy double bed, convenient access to an outhouse and heated (outdoor) shower and beautiful fire pit.

Two night stay

I was looking for a quiet solo getaway and found this place to be perfect for me! Included pots/pans and a grill for cooking, drinking water on site and heated water in the outdoor shower. The sauna and cold plunge were a nice bonus too!

We loved our stay! It was just perfect. We had everything we needed. The hosts were very responsive and helpful when we had questions about the area, or needed clarification on anything. Enjoyed cooking by fire, and were lucky to not have any rain. The hikes in the area were incredible. We saw a fox, a porcupine, a barred owl and lots of other beautiful birds. The location was very quiet and private, and we didn’t come across anyone else u less we left the property. We would definitely visit again and stay longer
Cutest, perfect bunkie!
This outdoor shower was amazing:)
