Embrace the beauty at Tent #5 - Merlot, a pet-friendly glamping retreat nestled among the vines at 12 Fires Winery. Whether you're sipping wine under the stars, exploring scenic trails, or unwinding by the fire, your getaway is designed for relaxation and adventure.



Stay in Comfort, Surrounded by Nature

Your cozy glamping retreat "Merlot" is thoughtfully designed for a comfortable escape. Snuggle into the plush queen bed, enjoy a private bathroom with a hot shower, and make use of amenities like a microwave, coffee maker, mini-fridge, and wine glasses, ideal for savoring local wines. While the tents can get warm during peak daylight hours in the summer, our AC units work most effectively once the sun goes down, helping create a more comfortable sleeping environment throughout the night.

Your furry friends are welcome! To ensure a comfortable stay for all guests, pets must be leashed and not left unattended in the tent. A $50 penalty applies to undeclared pets, in addition to the standard pet fee.
