Great peaceful retreat! Loved the Glamping Tent, Hot Tub and Firepit. My small dog and I, had a wonderful stay. It was delightful in every way! We plan to visit again!

This place is awesome!! It’s the feel of tent camping, which we loved (but we are getting too old to sleep on a mattress on the ground), but the comfort of staying in a cabin. The Safari Sun was just adorable, from the outside lights, to the cute safari animal decor. We’ll definitely be back!!

Amazing place

I have been to a lot of glamping places and this one was my favorite one so far. The bed was so comfortable...the hot tub was a bonus, we had baby deer everywhere. It just was so peaceful. I hated to leave it. It's also so nice to have all the accommodations in the tent as well. The owner was very friendly and very welcoming! I highly recommend this one.

Comfortable and cozy stay

We really enjoyed our stay in this glamping tent. Even with heavy rain, we were able to sit outside and enjoy the hottub because the outside areas are covered. The tent stayed very dry as well. We did not receive check in information prior to arrival, but this was easy enough to figure out. I would recommend this place to others visiting the area.
