Mother Nature's Platform Tent
Fall Foliage trip
We loved our stay at Mother Nature's platform tent We were a little nervous at first to be staying at the Mother Nature's platform tent, since we were some of the first folks staying there, but we were pleasantly surprised when we got there! Mother Nature's platform tent was the perfect getaway for us and well worth the drive. Our accommodation was newly renovated, had a rustic charm, and had everything that we needed, and then some. Jim was also incredibly welcoming, helpful, friendly, and communicative throughout the whole process. Right away, when we got there, Jim showed us around and answered our questions. The surrounding property was quiet, beautiful, and scenic up in the (wherever we were) with plenty to do — we even got to feed the fish nearby! We would definitely love to make our way back. Oh, and pro tip, try the dandelion wine 🙂
