The Enchanted Vardo
The problem was hip camp. The owner was very gracious when I texted her and let me know that she has pause the site and is no longer excepting vacancies. The Hipcamp website decided not to let me know, and my wife and I traveled out of our way to get there at the moment I am trying to get a refund from Hipcamp, but can’t reach them because of the robot system. Might have to go back to Airbnb instead of Hipcamp.

My wife and I really enjoyed staying at Nicolette’s place. She has a really nice set up there. We ended up spending more time than we intended there, just because it was such a nice spot. We’d definitely recommend her place to friends.

A unique stay with personality
Nicolette's whole set up was super fun, multiple units close together--but each with its own personality--and an outdoor kitchen as well as outdoor showers! Nicolette was super gracious as our booking was meant to be canceled and wasn't; not only did she still allow us to stay but she also upgraded us! Definitely stay here for a unique and tranquil experience made better by cool people.

Nice enough
The space was nice enough, but for charging $55 a night, it really should be clean (trashcans emptied, space swept, etc.). There were cat treats all over our room and the trash was overflowing with beer cans.
I think this place could be awesome if a little more effort was put into its maintenance/guest experience.
The Enchanted Vardo
Due to no fault of the hosts, the very cold, rainy, then snowy weather made for a less than enchanting, muddy experience. We had booked two nights but because of some changes we had made in our itinerary, we only ended up spending one.
Pros: The setting seems like it would be really cool to visit if the weather cooperated. We would have loved to have walked around the farm. The outhouse was clean. The little cooking area next to the Vardo was well equipped with plenty of outlets to use. The Vardo itself is very cute (don't forget your own bedding!)
Cons: The Vardo is not heated so, under the circumstances, we went out and got a small heater that kept us warm in the little kitchen area next door, and warmed up the Vardo until we got into our sleeping bags. We seem to have been the last people to visit/camp in awhile but the communal kitchen sink was full of dishes, the fridge was full of stuff that really needed to be tended to and the one garbage can was full to overflowing. The elevated area by the kitchen is now not a place to sit, but a place that is being used to store random stuff. i.e. The "Neat and Tidy" pics did not match a lot of the actual environment.

We had a wonderful stay at the cusp of winter. It was pretty cold outside but we brought our own blankets - plenty of them!- into the adorable little tiny house and we were pretty toasty in there. There was running water until the last night when the pipes froze but other than that, everything was in working order. Would definitely return for warmer weather!
