It was a very good experience for our first hip camp experience. The bed was super comfortable. The temperature control air circulation in the cabin was great. The bathroom and showers were really clean and nice.

Serenity and a calm, caring host who made sure we were comfortable. 2 real beds (a loft and a twin), a convertible couch, a fully reclining leather EZ chair, and extra bedding made sleeping comfy for 4. Cabin had heat and a/c. Awesome hot shower, outdoor sink, picnic table, tree swing, outdoor chairs, fire pit, fridge, grill, groceries in driving distance. Recommend for a refreshing retreat! ✌️
