The Glamping tent was great, just like being in a hotel. Had lights, cell chargers and a heater. Great times in K. Country.

This is a beautiful place and so peaceful, one night we had issues with the heater but they changed it right of way. The one thing is that bathrooms are a bit far away and I know they have outhouses but was not convenient, other than that We had a wonderful time

Amazing accomodation. Amazing experience! We were a bit confused as to how to properly dispose of dish water due to the bear situation, so just a suggestion to address that with people at check-in. Thank you for a great stay!

I really enjoyed my stay overall. The glamping tent is set up beautifully and the property was easy to navigate. The staff and selection at the office/shop was great. The bathroom situation is like summer camp, fairly clean but very run down and it seemed rather small for the amount of visitors. My biggest complaint and the reason I wouldn’t recommend this property to my girlfriends or families at this time is that there is no lock on the door of the tent, which is totally insane in 2025. It would be so inexpensive to add an interior clasp lock to the door and frame so that if you’re a solo female traveller you could rest easy. This is a safety thing plain and simple and in my mind unacceptable
