4 nights at Owl Creek Cabins

We loved the peace and quiet. There's water features and streams throughout the trails on property. Check with Michael about using the gas stove and oven; we didn't use it and the gas may have been off. Everything was clean and the inside water got hot. Michael was quiet to respond.

Weekend Trip to Owl Creek Cabins

We had a wonderful time the yurt is beautiful, the bed is comfortable. The property is so fun. We had a nice hike and there are a few other fun places he is working on to glamp in the future. The area is private, you can kindof see the other sites but can't hear them. We brought our 8mo old baby set up our travel crib and she had a great time. The area is mostly shaded so it stayed cool while we were there. We stayed 2 nights and wish we could've stayed more. There was a fan in the yurt which was nice because we were debating bringing one, and there were several chairs both by the site and by the camp fire so we didnt even use ours. There is a hammock which was peaceful to lay on. We didn't use the grill but it takes charcoal and tools are provided. The bed is a queen size. You don't have to bring much to be comfortable there. We will definitely go back!

A lovely campground! The grounds and the bathrooms were very clean. Had some hiking trails and I enjoyed walking around with the pup. Staff was kind and there is a well-stocked store. It's a little out of the way but that made for a peaceful stay.

We loved staying at Liberated Ground. It felt far away even though you’re just a short drive away from the city. The fire pit was incredible and the hosts were gracious.

Weekend Trip to Owl Creek Cabins

The land was amazing to explore and take in all that surrounds you. Dipping your feet in the creek at night by the suburban listening the the water and reflecting is surreal. Walking the paths is another great experience. Chilling on the porch at the main house with the waterfall is amazing. You can play barred owl sounds loud and they with surrounds you. Best experience to reconnect with nature and get away from the city life. 10 out of 5 stars.

Liberated Grounds welcomed us which such pleasant and loving energy. We pulled up planning to camp in our car, but Burt & Angel offered us a tent and even helped us set it up! It was a beautiful space for the weekend! I loved the calm & safe feelings the whole experience brought to us. I am excited to visit again and would LOVE to attend any concerts/events they are so lucky to host!

Beautiful tree house. Serene. Private. Not sure if I would list it as “sleeps 4” though. Maybe if you brought bed rolls and bedding for the other two people but it would be pretty tight.

My wife and I had a wonderful two night stay in the Dreamcatcher Tipi at Sundance Ranch. It's perfect for a quick getaway from the city! Rhonda got us settled in and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We took a little trip around the lake in the canoe in the morning and relaxed around the campfire listening to birds and watching wildlife the rest of the time. Very relaxing!

Weekend Trip to Owl Creek Cabins

We stayed in the yurt. It was well furnished with pillows, blankets, and futon. The site had wood for sale to use in the stove. It was enough to keep us warm in 19 degree weather. There was also a charcoal grill on site. It was a great camp!
