Easy going place with cabins and clean, updated bathhouse. The showers are quarter-operated and work super well. The drive up is lovely. Recommend.

Close to great trails and locations, friendly staff. Tent area is rite up to a busy road, traffic all night. Site is dirty. Trash everywhere, in the trees, bushes and fence line. Bathrooms were gross. The 2 toilets looked like a frat party with poop all over. What appeared to be a stained tile in the shower turned out to be something else as it slowly moved towards the drain when it got wet.

Great time!!
Glamping Cabin 1
We stayed in a cabin. They are very nice and clean. They are very close to other cabins which I liked because you get to know your neighbors. The land is pretty and very well maintained.

Clean nice place. Great cabin, comfy beds. Not sure why the showers were extra considering the price. The convenience store was nice, but not as well stocked as communicated. Glad we stocked up before arriving.

Glamping Cabin 3
We had a great time at Glamping Cabin I! The cabin was so so cozy and the heater was a nice touch. Aspens surround the cabin adding extra privacy to the side and back of the cabin and beautiful views! The linens were clean and the bed was very comfortable! This is a beautiful spot to launch off into more adventure (hiking/fishing/lookouts) or just to cozy up and enjoy where you already are! There were beautiful aspen walks on the property, a huge convince store/liquor store, playground, horseshoe/corn hole during nice weather, laundry, showers, campfire and wild animals that occasionally walk by the campground! This spot had everything we could need and more!
