There is nothing around the area. Bring your own food, blankets (they rent them) anything you can think of using for being comfortable. I loved it. This place is designed to live like in the woods with a bit of comfort, but you make the comfort. Amazing place by the river, with excellent Northern Lights view, full moon view and amazing mountains around. Totally recommend for anyone looking to experience camping with comfort. They have shared showers and the cleanliness was above expectations for a place like this. Amazing for kids, family, pets. I totally recommend this experience and this place. They were very informative the whole time. There is a bbq for each tent and heater is also provided. But as I said, if you like comfort, do a bit more of research and bring your own. Even a sleeping bag if needed. We went in september and it was already getting cold so plan in advance.

A beautiful setting. The trapper's cabin tent was great. The staff were friendly and helpful. The sites are lovely. Just two problems: The roads are atrocious. Giant potholes you can fall into in the dark. Second problem: on two occasions in two days no toilet paper in the ladies toilets. Other than that , wonderful.

Friendly staff and amazing manager Abbey 😊 Clean everywhere…shower house, outhouse, garbages. Glamping tents/sites are beautiful. One drawback was having one wash house, but plans are in the works to add more facilities in the near future 👌 Overall, stay was excellent and we’d highly recommend Sundance by Basecamp to anyone wanting to to experience camping in a unique way 😊. 9.5/10

We stayed in a clamping tent September 16-20 for our 26th wedding anniversary. We had a great time! Very comfy bed, soft linens/ comforter. The little kerosene heater was just right. The staff were wonderful and even helped us out with propane when we unexpectedly ran out. Showers were hot and excellent pressure. My only complaint would be the many potholes on the roads through the campground. Other than that, 10/10 would stay here again!
