in The Owl Pine Cabin & Camp, CaliforniaApple Hollow Tiny House
in Apple Hollow, UtahGreat place for zion & bryce trips
We really enjoyed our stay at Apple Hollow! The multiple tiny houses sit right on the main highway between Bryce and Zion which make them a great home base for your National Park adventures. (About 30 minutes to Zion's east gate) The tiny house is packed with amenities: Coffee pot, coffee fixings, microwave, hot plates, and more.
Gökotta (Swedish for "dawn picnic")
in Balsam Ridge Retreat, MinnesotaOne of our favorite hipcamps
We had an absolute blast staying at Chris and Linda's gorgeous Hipcamp. From the moment we drove onto the property we felt welcomed and as if we were visiting family.
The Gokotta was immaculately designed and had all the right touches — it was very apparent as to just how much effort and care Linda and Chris have put into their Hipcamp sites.
Having two reservoirs of drinking water at the site, wood chopped and ready to go in the the fire pit, along with things like hand soap, a radio, and lamps made for such an easy, care free stay.
We're already looking for reasons to visit Duluth so we can stay here again! Thank you for everything Chris & Linda!
Enchanted Garden Retreat in PDX
in Garden & Galaxy Urban Retreat, OregonPerfect portland glamping experience
The Enchanted Garden Retreat was the perfect place to stay during our overnight trip to Portland. The cabin was such a cozy place to sleep and listen to the rain on the plexiglass ceiling.
The kitchen and washroom in the main house were just a few paces away and all well kept.
Shannon was such a helpful and amazing Host, we took her up on her dinner and cafe recommendations and all were amazing! We would definitely stay again!
Close-in quaint cabin!
in Sweet Relief, OregonCamp 30 minutes from downtown pdx
We had amazing time staying at Trent's beautiful property. The cabin is immaculate and beautifully designed, and the wood fired soaking tub is life changing.
Trent provided us with firewood for the tub, a cooler filled with ice, and even had the tub warmed up for us upon arrival.
The cabin is filled with everything you could need: Towels for the tub, coffee for the morning, extra blankets if you get cold, along with is a potable water spigot just outside.
The outdoor shower and compositing toilet were very clean and well maintained.
We highly recommend staying here. We can't wait to head back the next time we visit Portland! Thanks again for having us Trent!
Salmon Valley Hideout...Mt Hood
in Salmon Valley, Welches Oregon, OregonA gorgeous private site
The hideout was an absolute dream! It's situated on the edge of Mt. Hood National Forest, close to the road, but very private and quiet. Rachel was an amazing host and very communicative leading up to our arrival. The site was private, beautifully designed, and was immaculately kept. I would camp here again in a heart beat!
Shasta View Treehouse
in ShastaView, CaliforniaPeaceful retreat under mt. shasta
We loved our stay at the Treehouse. Gary was very responsive and helpful the days leading up to our trip, providing us with directions and maps. We ended up arriving after sunset and were able to locate the property and treehouse with ease.
*The road has a few ruts and rocks along the final approach to the property, just go slow and navigate around 'em and you'll be totally fine (Our low clearance Honda Fit made it through without scrapping the undercarriage even once.)
The treehouse itself was very clean and made for a cozy night. We woke up before the sun crested Mt. Shasta and walked out to the meadow to watch the sunrise. I highly recommend you try to do the same!
