Group trip
We loved glamping at OMSP. Sarah’s tent was great and she was a very responsive host. The second night we lost power because a tree downed a power line. Some of our group said they prefer primitive camping so they were loving the power outage. We did the hike to the Peavine Falls. We skipped the 6 mile trails before and drove straight to the parking lot at the end of Terrace and you can take the blue or white trail. When you see two benches, follow that trail to the falls. There is so much to do. We look forward to going again.

My husband and I had the best time celebrating the long holiday weekend at hideaway cove. We were able to bring our senior dog and were so impressed with the layout and everything that was provided. We slept comfortably even in chillier weather, and made sure to take advantage of the canoe. The lake was gorgeous and we fell in love with the area. I definitely recommend!
