Weekend Trip to Moonraker Treehouse & Cabins

My group and I had a lovely time staying at Fox Hollow! We are extremely satisfied with the service, everything was as described, and better. This was such a gem, amazing views and vibes, couldn't have had a better experience. Thank you Claire for making this such a special trip for us!

1 night at Moonraker Treehouse & Cabins

Absolutely phenomenal experience. Claire provided clear, thoughtful, and detailed instructions and information every step of the way, from our questions prior to booking, to the instruction booklets on site that ensured a stress free stay. The property itself was very easy to find and navigate, and the treehouse was absolutely magical. You can feel the love and care that the hosts have put into the property in every detail, and we felt as though they covered every aspect of comfort we could possibly ask for, providing plenty of wood, blankets, and simple, but much appriciated amentities. The treehouse is also within comfortable walking distance from the parking area but is still private, which allows for the most breathtaking and scerene viewing of the mountains and birds in the area. I can't say that I have ever stayed somewhere that has compared to this, and would easily choose this experience over any luxury hotel, even considering our snowy morning. Our only regret is that we only stayed one night, and would definitely recommend booking two or more nights so you can take advantage of the hiking trails and appreciate it too it's full extent!!

10/10 would recommend.

Amazing views from the roof, private space, and less than 10 minutes to Golden.

Weekend Trip to Sauna Under the Stars Camping

I love the GlamperVan! We only stayed the night as we were passing through but I could see myself spending more time here someday. Nicole was incredibly communicative and easy to chat with. Dane, the campground manager was super friendly and helpful too which was fantastic. The place was easy to find from Golden, and once we were on the property it wasn’t hard to follow the signs to the van. The campsite was already set up for us when we arrived and had everything we could possibly need for the stay. Yes, there were lots of mosquitos but you have to expect bugs in the woods! Just a fantastic stay and a great place to get away! Thank you for having us!

This was a highlight of our trip to Canada.

We had 2 nights and wished we’d stayed longer. The host was also very helpful and responsive to messages. Highly recommend.

Nous avons passé quelques nuitées à la grande yourte. C'était une expérience unique et sûrement inoubliable. Propriétaire sympa et accueillant. Sauna au bois et douche atypique, la forêt infinie, chauffage au bois... tout ceci nous a permis d'oublier la routine de la vie urbaine.

Mike's land is quite exceptional! Its truly like walking into a little enchanted forest. So much charm and character, with little details around every corner! John and Mike were so friendly and kind. As two girls traveling alone we felt very safe!! The bed was probably the most comfortable bed we've ever slept on and the hot tub was just what we needed after a long day of hiking. They had pancakes and coffee waiting for us the next morning, which made the whole experience even more exceptional. Would highly recommend :)

Weekend Trip to Camp Moose Trail - Elevated Camping

A super special place! I'd highly recommend for a an experience that goes above and beyond a normal campground. The tents are great. The outhouses are fun. The rock climbing wall is a huge bonus. On top of the facilities, Michael does a great job fostering a communal vibe (with the kitchen space, pizza oven and free breakfast) making it easy for campers to get to know your fellow campers in a natural way.
