Weekend Trip to Bohamia - Glamp/RV/Camp
Loved this place will be coming back soon. Great hiking trails, the A-frames were very comfortable. Very clean bathrooms and shower areas. The camp store is a nice touch for getting firewood, ice and even smores.

Weekend Trip to Bohamia - Glamp/RV/Camp
What a beautiful glamping spot with great accommodations and service. The bed was super comfy and the coffee better than most I have at hotels. Loved being able to hike with my dog all around the trails, see a waterfall and even canoe. Will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Bohamia - Glamp/RV/Camp
I highly recommend Bohemia. Within 10 days I stayed there twice. I stayed in one of the A-frames. It is a great glamping experience. They have an experience. They have an online shop where you can order firewood, s’mores , ice , and bug spray. When I first got there, I got out my kayak and I went out on their pond. My second time there I explored their trails. There’s a beautiful dam with a waterfall on the yellow trail. There was a thunderstorm while I was there, and I felt quite safe and cozy in my little A-frame. Leigh who runs the grounds is fantastic and truly welcoming. It truly is a peaceful place to be in nature and reconnect. The bathrooms and the shower stalls were very well kept and cleaned daily. 5 ⭐️ from me. I will be back!

This place is a GEM. There has been careful thought put into everyone's privacy despite being close together so you can set up for both quiet time and community. The facilities are very clean, the beds are blissfully comfortable. We can not wait to come back!
