Diego United States

Beautiful scenery and the staff was amazing staff. Didn't eat there much, but what we did eat was good!

Stacy United States

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff and unique lodging

Yuliya United States

The deluxe tent we stayed in had a shower and toilet, so cool! The king sized bed was so comfy and the blankets were very warm. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and tucked away so you feel like you’re in the wilderness. We loved the ruggedness, but that we could also walk to the main building for hot drinks, food, activities, games and s’mores!! My daughter got to paint rocks and a canvas picture on the evenings we stayed and there was always a schedule of activities and music. The Under Canvas experience and staff made my daughter and I’s GSM trip one to remember!

Shannon United States
