Guest Reviews

• dunn2002 (10/5): Peaceful getaway! - My adult daughter and I spent 3 nights here while visiting Great Smokey Mountains National Park. The staff was great. They had a delicious vegan bowl and avocado toast with plant based sausage for breakfast. We stayed in the back part of the park in tent 11. We enjoyed being in the trees. There was plenty of parking. The walk to our tent wasn't far and the path was well lit. They offered to use the golf cart to help us but we planned to bring bags to carry rather than a big suitcase to roll. We had no problems at all. Daughter really enjoyed managing the fire and kept us warm. They provided lots of firewood, kindling, starters and matches. The bed was very comfortable. Nice to have our own shower and toilet in our tent. Music that Saturday night (4/25) was enjoyable, not too loud that you could have a conversation. Nightly s'mores were a real treat. We enjoyed sitting by the wood fire on the hill and talking with other guests, sharing stories and relaxing. If you want to stay closer to the main tent you can make s'mores on the propane fire pits. There was a very loud bird each night which I was told was a whippoorwill. One night it rained and we enjoyed sleeping in our nice warm dry tent while listening to the rain. We brought a cooler and kept it on our porch which was very useful. I use a CPAP and they provided a battery adequate to run it each night, swapped it out with a recharged on before we returned from hiking. You want to make sure and read the Welcome Handbook they'll send you. Very important in formation. We knew there was no electricity in the tents or internet so came prepared with books and games. It was wonderful to sit at night all toasty warm in the tent while reading my book. I finished one and started another! No nightly scrolling on devices. A wonderful opportunity to disconnect! It was about 20 minutes to the park or 35 minutes to Newfound Gap or 1.5 hours to Cherokee. It was lovely to return home to our text after a day of sightseeing. We met some lovely guests while roasting s'mores and the staff was the best! Johnny in the kitchen, I think it was Kaitlyn (from FL) at the concierge desk and many more that took care of us. This was a different type of stay, no unlimited hot water or a thermostat to manage but a wonderful experience Glamping. We want to try Under the Canvas in other locations too! Highly recommend.
• brittanysF5535UU (10/5): Luxury glamping experience - We had an amazing stay at Under Canvas Smoky Mountains and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and elevated Smoky Mountains experience. From check-in, the staff stood out immediately everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. We really appreciated the orientation walkthrough of the property and our tent, which made everything easy to use and helped us fully enjoy the experience from the start. The property itself is beautifully designed and offers such a fun, social atmosphere without feeling crowded. The on-site food and drinks were excellent, and having live music in the evenings added a special touch. The complimentary s’mores were such a thoughtful detail and made the nights feel extra cozy. We stayed in a Stargazer tent, and it was absolutely stunning. The bed was very comfortable, and the tent had everything we needed while still allowing us to feel connected to the outdoors. It was the perfect balance of luxury and nature. Overall, this was a memorable stay and one of the best glamping experiences we’ve had. We would definitely return and recommend it to anyone visiting the Smoky Mountains.
• Erin (10/5): 1000% Book this! It was a gorgeous stay and I would highly recommend! - Gorgeous campsite. Staff were super friendly and couldn’t help enough. Tents were spacious, whole site is clean, safe and had great amenities. We were upgraded to a tent with a bathroom and it is absolutely worth it, so cosy and quiet. Perfect stay for us. Plenty of activities to do like sports, quizzes and smores. Our tent was up in the trees and it was incredible, lovely fire, shower etc was good, bed was super comfy. Honestly can’t recommend enough. Only a short drive back to the great smoky mountains NP. Absolutely nothing!
• kja18 (10/5): Relax and recharge - I was so excited to go here, and my expectations were exceeded! Our space was so comfortable - from the bed to the fire, and the porch. The amenities were amazing. The nightly smores, activities, live music, and delicious dinners and breakfast made our visit seem like it checked every box and then some. The evenings and mornings were so quiet. Listening to the birds in the morning or the fire at night, does not get more relaxing. The thing that stands out the most is the service. The front desk could not be kinder or more helpful. I felt like I had a barrage of questions one morning and they answered them all patiently and knowledgeably. I highly recommend this experience and will seek out Under Canvas opportunities in our travel.
• shannonoZ6645NB (10/5): Fantastic Staff and Cozy Glamping - My 13-year old son, another mom and her teen son, and I just returned from a wonderful 4-night stay at Under Canvas! This was our second time experiencing Under Canvas, so we knew what to expect in terms of the unique glamping experience. We opted for the deluxe tent with the separate kids' tent, which gave us plenty of room for everyone to spread out. While it was chilly at night, the extra provided blankets were ample, and we brought our own hot water bottles which we filled each night to ensure toasty warm sheets. However, the lodging was only part of the story. I really want to rave about the amazing staff at this location! We had a blast participating in a cornhole tournament one evening in the common area, and the moms actually won (much to the disappointment of our teenage sons!). But the real highlight was when Victoria, who oversaw the tournament, came back the next day, on her day off, with three other staff members (Holly, Devante, and Austin) to challenge us to a rematch! It was so much fun, and we truly enjoyed getting to know these fantastic individuals. That kind of personal touch and genuine enthusiasm made our trip extra special. We also absolutely loved the food and the on-site activities. We would head out each day for hikes and adventures in the surrounding area, but it was always a pleasure to come "home" to Under Canvas, sit by the fire, mingle with other guests, and enjoy some s'mores. Overall, we had an unforgettable experience and highly recommend Under Canvas to anyone looking for a unique and comfortable outdoor adventure. P.S. Under Canvas, if you're reading this, you really need to add Skillet Cookies to the menu at UC Smoky Mountain! 😉 You know what I'm talking about!
• Heesung (3/5): -
• 7DebbieC7 (10/5): Under Canvas at Smoky Mountains was amazing! - What an amazing experience! We stayed Fri to Sun. We booked the Deluxe Tent and it was wonderful. Own bathroom (toilet and hot shower) in your tent is great, especially because one of the nights it rained heavily. The food was excellent, with variety. The service was excellent. On Sat night, there was live music from Tennessee Rose - and they were fantastic! The included smores were a special touch. You will love it. Great for groups, couples, families and extended families.
• Iga (10/5): -
• Kasia (8/5): -
• Joe (10/5): - The whole staff made the trip extremely special. They were very helpful and professional
• Frederik (9/5): -
• abdelaziz (4/5): Pas terrible , c’est le plus mauvais site de Under Canevas à oublier - N/A Pas de réseau de téléphone et surtout pas d’internet : on peut avoir de sérieux problèmes sans cela. Il n’y a pas d’accès commun au WiFi
• HAROLD (6/5): - All the surroundings smell to dog’s poop, is more like a dog place than a family place. Showers with the one hand faucet is the worst! Come on , if you are saving a lot of money on other things and charging the same of more as the inn Christmas hotel (breakfast included) consider to allow guests to take a normal shower and brush the teeth normal! This is the second time we tried the place because of my Son, but to be honest is not worth the high price for that kind of experience, I know you want to make it look like a camping but for 350+ a night, at least we deserve to take a decent shower, and should place signs everywhere to make people to pick up after their dogs.
• AmyGreaves79 (10/5): A great stay on the beautiful Smoky Mountains - We spent 3 fabulous nights at Under Canvas in August, the 2nd stop of 7 on our Tennessee and Kentucky roadtrip. We are a family of five and had two tents - a Safari one for us and a triple for our 3 kids (18,17&14). The beds were really comfy and the bathrooms in the tent and outside were great. I am not a natural camper and loved the experience. The UC team organised two activities for us - River Snokelling on Greenbrier River (cold but brilliant) and White Water Rafting on Pigeon River (great fun). We loved driving around the area. The team on-site were so helpful with tips and recommendations and looked after us really well at breakfast and dinner. Being able to grab tea and coffee at anytime was really handy too. We really enjoyed sitting around the fire in the evening playing games and eating s’mores too. The night skies and sunrises/sunsets were breathtaking. We would 100% go back and I would love to stay at some of the other sites too.
• Matthias (8/5): Interessantes Glamping Erlebnis - Die Zeltlandschaft ist schön gelegen. Sehr ruhig. Gute Erholung möglich. Kein Internet. In der Nacht haben Leute nach 12 Uhr eingecheckt. Dadurch konnten wir nicht schlafen (Mein Vorschlag: nach 10 Uhr sollten keine neuen Kunden zugelassen werden)
• Michelle (10/5): - Great “glamping” experience!!
• Mats (10/5): -
• Miriam (9/5): -
• Valeriy (10/5): - Great place to disconnect from technology and connect with nature
• L3435VFjohnj (8/5): Great experience but won’t do it again - I have never done any camping or glamping before, but after this, I don’t think I will be able to do it again. It wasn’t that under canvas is not nice, it’s me! I’ve stayed at airstream before where there was AC, running water and electricity. But I was just not able to live without these. I used my phone for navigation from charlotte to Pigeon Forge where my phone was nearly 2% when we got to the camp and found there’s nowhere to charge the phone in type c charger. We asked the front desk if we can borrow one and they couldn’t provide it. There is no WiFi at ground which is kinda frustrated. But that’s the experience of camping/glamping No? Overall I think I had a fun time.
• Cara (10/5): Exceptional -
• Benito (10/5): - Great place ! Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.
• Nomuunzul (9/5): Superb - Able to fully emerge in nature while staying very comfortable None
• Jong (8/5): Very good - Nature friendly
• Sharon (10/5): - Under Canvas is an amazing company. I LOVED the tents! the love is terrific, lots of healthy dinner options. The staff really cares! I'm excited to check out their Acadia location in a couple of months. Shout out to Keegan and Alena the managers! You guys are great!
• Heidi (10/5): - Excellent property!!!
• Jamie (10/5): - This was our first time staying at an Under Canvas property and we loved it! Everything about the place was excellent. We highly recommend it!
• Hamner (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tob64 (7/5): Nice tents. Tacky area - Very little power at the tents. The need at least one full power outlet Beds and pillows are only ok. Locations. Sorry. But the area is extremely touristy and very tacky.
• mr_mattyfrank (8/5): Great Camping Experience without Setting Up Your Tent. - The bed was very comfortable and the tent was larger than we expected. The tent was equipped with some small fans that worked well to circulate air. We did not use the fireplace, but it seems easy to build a fire. The restaurant had some issues while we were there, but the staff improvised and created a small menu for guests.
• joshrX4808KE (10/5): a once in a lifetime experience camping under the stars and one of the most incredible environment - The crew and staff were undo amazing super friendly always keeping you on your toes to go do something and explore the wilderness. The forest was beautiful, walking looking for salamanders and crawfish and super quiet with the birds chirping in the air. the tent was amazing hardwood floors, clean bathrooms. The bed was super soft and the view under the stars was the best.
• George (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly staff, excellent food and great location
• Ana (10/5): - Stunning property! 10 out of 10 recommend. The STAFF!!!! They are all AMAZING!!!!! From the front desk to the kitchen to maintenance and everyone in between.
• 221barba (10/5): Great Outdoor Family Getaway - Under Canvas is an amazing experience for friends and family. The tents are very clean and the beds are very comfortable. We enjoyed the great outdoors and the food in the reception tent was yummy. Also, the entertainment around the campfire was great!
• atltammy (10/5): Glamping Is Great! - This is a wonderful experience and the crew here is absolutely amazing. One thing to keep in mind; you can hear what happens in the tents around you. Not a big deal, as most folks are aware and are courteous but we happened to land next door to the rudest, most inconsiderate family who allowed their twin toddlers to run amok in the main camp tent and to scream their heads off all night long while we were asleep. This happened repeatedly thru the night; my husband eventually walked down to the office after 1 am to let someone know. The staff here was very courteous, understood our frustration, moved us to a tent farther away and handled the situation perfectly. I know we were not the only guests that were disturbed by this family. The area is beautiful, the location of the facility is set in the prettiest of places, there is ample opportunity to just enjoy nature and the tents are amazing! You can't go wrong here! Just be sure if you are retired to know that there are a lot of families here; 99% of them are polite but you never know when you will run across the ones that refuse to make their kids behave. Food is outstanding and you are very close to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and of course, the National Park. The staff will make you feel like you are the only campers...absolutely fabulous group of staffers here!
• D4701FGjulief (10/5): Love the Great Outdoors! - My childhood best friend and I met here for a long overdue reunion! We went hiking, roasted marshmallows and talked for hours! It was the perfect trip. We loved this resort. Very beautiful and serene. Just perfect for a mix of exercise and relaxation with lots of healthy options for meals and exercise! The offer Yoga and that was wonderful after a long hike in the beautiful Smokey Mountains.
• erichm436 (10/5): Great - Super fun experience. Loved sleeping in a cabin of canvas. Was fantastic to completely unplug for a weekend. Only minor drawback was the chairs in the tent were low and uncomfortable. Very comfortable bed and staying in a stargazer and fall asleep under the stars was a cool experience.
• Rei (10/5): Exceptional -
• andrewthorntonjr8 (10/5): Relaxing and well-thought out glamping experience - Such an incredibly thought out glamping experience. My wife and I typically do regular camping and we really enjoyed this! Very relaxing. Food was really good. Had live music one night. Complimentary smores, coffee, and hot chocolate. Highly recommend!
• babsnola (10/5): Beautiful Stay - We had a great stay here. The staff was so helpful and friendly. We had dinner and breakfast here, both were great! The fire out back was nice to sit and enjoy. Our room was clean and comfortable. It was a beautiful opportunity to be outdoors and enjoy nature without having to do the work.
• P9571MQbarbaran (10/5): Great experience!! - The bed is extremely comfortable and wood burning stove quickly heated the tent. Out door fires were great in the evening, enjoyed meeting other families from other states. Very clean, service was great and easy to make reservation. Overall great experience, already have reservations to go back next November for 50th wedding anniversary with all the kids/grandkids!
• 111rufusc (8/5): Perfect posh tent in the wilderness - Amazing experience in the beautiful forest of the Great Smoky’s. Great tents, very good quality, friendly staff and nice experience eating round the campfire. This camp was particularly great as it’s so close to Pigeon Forge but feels like it’s out in the wild.
• shuajones (6/5): Nice facilities, food and staff, but poor management and low value. - We liked the facilities, the food, the wood stove, and the bed was comfortable, but there was no way of seeing any stars out of the “stargazer” window. It was clouded, scratched and very dirty. Requests to clean it were met with dismissive responses, half-hearted efforts to clean it, or none at all. Even after having the water temp turned down it was almost too hot to be usable. It was also quite noisy at the camp, especially on Friday and Saturday nights when it went on past 3am.
• Ye (6/5): not worth it. overprices. - Very unique experience, kids kinda like it. The tent/canvas material looks old and dirty from inside especially around the shower, you can see mold on it. Once you get into valley, there's no phone service and no wife connections at all. if you need to check email or text message, you will get disappointed, I mean as least provide wifi in the lobby, I'm fine no internet in the tent. The only heating option is a small wood burning fireplace which need to refill every 1.5 hr throughout the night, or you will feel the cold.
• aditib942 (10/5): Dreamy ! - Had a good time ! The location is beautiful ! And overall experience was great ! A few things to improve on is a better concierge to book adventures ( the glacier national park location was excellent) and improved house keeping during the stay !
• H8183XUsaras (2/5): Too Cold in the Kids Tents - Unfortunately I had high expectations for this stay, but I was really disappointed. We booked a stargazer tent with the kids tent - please be aware that there is no heat source for the kids tent. At no point during the reservation process was I notified that there is no heat in the kids tent. Had I known, I would have prepared a little more or changed my reservation. The Smoky Mountains in October get cold at night and the kids tent was freezing. Totally unacceptable - we had all of our kids sleeping with us in a king bed at night. When I asked the front desk about this, they told me that they can give us some extra blankets. For the price point, I just would have expected some more thought to be put into this or at least tell us what to expect.
• kellysY8814PS (10/5): The best glamping in the Smokies! - Reservations were simple to make on their website and everything we experienced exceeded our expectations. Every staff member was very professional and always made sure we had everything we needed to have the best time possible! Thank you Under Canvas for everything!
• 817kristenl (10/5): Unique and Relaxing Fall Getaway - Amazing trip! Fun and unique way to travel and get away. Highly recommended and would go back in a heartbeat. Loved being able to disconnect and enjoy family, friends, and nature. Tent was clean and spacious. We loved having breakfast and dinner onsite so we didn’t have to rush out or fight the crowds. The smores and camp fires at night are always fun! This is our 2nd Under Canvas experience and won’t be our last!
• michaelwX4001YJ (10/5): Glamping At Its Best - A true glamping experience that shouldn't be missed. The tents were amazing and having a private bathroom option was a game changer. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and the surroundings were beautiful. Definitely will return.
• AlenaEuby (10/5): Fun for the whole family - I have stayed at now Acadia and the Smokies location. Both have wonderful facilities. Our family noticed with this camp the special attention to customer service and onsite activities for our kids. It was a great place for the family to enjoy a long weekend and have fun without having to leave camp much. The location itself was great to be so close to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and The Smokies to do some trails and more fun activities for the kids.
• chuckgV7882WK (10/5): A nice family friendly glamping experience - Facilities and amenities were clean and thoughtfully laid out. Staff was warm, welcoming, and engaging. There was plenty of room between tents and lots of easily accessible common space. Tents were very comfortable. Our tent had a private bathroom, which was a nice splurge. The water in the shower was warm. However, the shower faucet required you to pull and hold onto a chain to keep water flowing. This required a bit of dexterity and worked best as a quick “navy shower.” But, it just added to the experience. All in all a great experience and we’d like to come back again.
• Travel54768564239 (10/5): Must do! - An amazing experience! Even a downpour could not ruin this. The staff was very Friendly and helpfull. there where good and healthy food options and the tents are wonderfull ! We had live music during dinner and played Some board games after our meal.
• Elana (8/5): - We had a great time! Staff was amazing and we loved everything about our experience. One negative complaint we have is that there was mold in our tent
• Christobell (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful escape with no distractions
• Anup (10/5): Staying at Under Canvas was a fantastic experience. The luxury tents were comfortable and well-equipped, and the natural - We loved everything.
• Larry (4/5): - Thought I'd try something different. The concept is unique, but the actual tent is a little spartan for my taste. I don't care about living out of the suitcase with no place to hang cloths up. No cell phone signal or internet but they at least tell you that. Pretty costly for what is offered. Just not my cup of tea but others may enjoy the lifestyle and being so remote. The staff was terrific, and the public shower area was clean and pleasant. The kitchen and dining looked nice but I didn't dine there. I hadn't been to Gatlinburg area for many years, and it is a real tourist trap now. I won't be back.
• Franziska (10/5): Magical - Location, tents, everything Would love one more healthy main option / more vegetables and fruit in dishes
• Tal (3/5): Poor - We came with high expectations and left shortly after check in, we stayed in other glamping locations before so we can compare. The location is in a small meadow with no view, nothing to do on the grounds, the location is 10-15 minutes from town and no access to interesting hikes The tents were very hot and to cop with the heat we had couple of very small and inefficient fans. The furnitures were worn down, there is no WiFi.
• Maeve (10/5): - We had such a GREAT time at Under Canvas in TN. The staff is amazing and the environment so comfortable and inclusive. We loved our accommodations and fun on-camp activities, and more importantly met really lovely families with whom we connected and will stay in touch.
• Nancy H (8/5): - The experience reminded me of summer camp. It was pleasant to be in a beautiful and relaxing place. It was refreshing to play and enjoy without technology.
• Emily (10/5): A True Gem - Big fan of Under Canvas! It was a little hot but still managed to sleep comfortably. Love the views and relaxation at Under Canvas.
• Sahana (8/5): Lovely luxury camping - Luxury camping experience. Beautiful location. Nice campfire. Not many vege dinner options. A bit expensive.
• Tom (6/5): Great environment - Tents are far away to get enough privacy Entrances of the tents are facing the forest. Also the main tent is extremely hot in summer. So lunch is in the NP. Beds are to synthetic for hot summers
• Kyle (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alexandra (10/5): - Under Canvas Greay Smoky Mountains was amazing!
• Kayleen (8/5): Very good - It was secluded and away from things but not too far from civilization and very pretty! The tents were a little closer together than I would’ve liked.
• Amanda (10/5): Awesome! - Jess was great along with the other workers. The beds were so comfy and we had a great night's sleep! I only wish we had stayed longer than one night to experience more the location had to offer. We did eat breakfast there and it was delicious! I loved that they have vegan options and understand what vegan is. Their dinner menu looked great as well. We enjoyed the smores although it was unfortunately too hot for the fire. A fall visit would be fabulous! We played games (I would suggest a better selection). Bathroom in the tent was amazing! Bed and Bathroom are the two things as I get older that I miss while camping. The price. We traveled with our teen kids and had to get two tents and at around $600 for the night, it was a bit much. I certainly get that it was more of a hotel situation, but I wish there were options for families that were more affordable.
• Paul (4/5): Disappointing stay. - This place calls itself a small luxury hotel. No luxury here. We had a suite - the amenities/furniture on the website are not what you get. No daily housekeeping. Apparently, it's available at the guests' requests, but no-one informed us of that. Room seemed dirty and we even wondered if the sheets were fresh at arrival. The staff is clueless in terms of service. No internet so you have to ask for advice, but most have no knowledge of local area. Restaurant is basic. No eco-water bottles. The drive is 30 mins to the national park and not much to do at the property. It could be wonderful with a caring, knowledgeable staff, internet at least in the common area so that one can plan activities outside of the camp, having a yoga instructor or hiking guide on site, better restaurant offerings. At a minimum, each room should have a map of the national park and a handbook of what is available to do in the Smoky Mountains since there is no internet available. I could go on. Very disappointing.
• Janna (9/5): Our trip to Under Canvas was the highlight of our trip, we’ll stay longer next time! - We loved the entire experience. We plan on making Under Canvas a part of our future travel plans. We wish we had booked a much longer stay! Our shower never ran hot or warm which was one of our main motivators for having a deluxe suite. To get down the hill to tell staff late at night was an option. A walk or talkie feature or something to report issues would be great.
• Vivek06 (9/5): Wonderful stay for a night or two. - Location and the camp fire. Friendliness of reception staff. Good breakfast options. Quality of cocktails. The strawberry margarita was poor. They were poor for the price paid. Being charged $6 for a cup of milk for my toddler. The charge was waived at check out after i mentioned it. It should not have been charged in the first place, at least not $6.
• Mary-Anne (10/5): - The kids had a blast meeting and playing with the other families. It rained a bit, but the tents stayed dry and staff worked hard to dry the outside areas and restart the outdoor fires when weather permitted.
• Keerti (9/5): Superb -
• Bas (10/5): Fantastic - Restaurant, nature, social interaction, off the grid Nothing
• Sander (8/5): Very good -
• Iordan (4/5): - Tents are too close to each other and to the car path. A lot of noise and light pollution.
• Cecília (5/5): Passable -
• THUY (8/5): - Staffs are very helpful and very nice.
• Cindy (9/5): Superb - All the staff were very nice and accommodating! Our stay will be for sure very memorable — especially seeing my husband light a fire for us in the tent every morning ~ so useful and somewhat fun at the same time. It was very sweet to see friends and families coming together at the central hang out pavilion for fun and relaxation ~ all unplugged! 👍. We will definitely explore UNDER CANVAS again for future travel & fun!! In the tent to have more larger hooks to hang clothes and towels — Also, shelving on wall close to sink for necessities would be helpful —
• Natalie (10/5): Perfect. Special. - Staff is what makes this place. so friendly and will go above and beyond. The luxury in the camping is so good when you hit your 40's ha ha! What a great place. Thank you.

• Ashley (10/5): - Loved my stay here for our anniversary, it was peaceful and very eco-friendly which was very important to me. We really hope to visit the other locations around the US! We really liked all of the eco friendly products, but I really wish the same would be applied to the clothes they sell (they sell lululemon when they are not eco friendly when there are other US brands that are ir. Wolven).
• Nicole (9/5): Under Canvas Rocks! - Hospitality Tent Serving food Live music Beautiful sleeping tents Very clean! Water never got hot in shower
• Lameika (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lisa (7/5): Nice place to stay away from all of the tourist attractions and only a street behind the main town! - I enjoyed the activities offered such as board games, cornhole, horseshoes, and of course the smores and bonfire in the evening! The tent was really nice with a comfy bed and a bathroom and had everything you needed! Very nice. The free bottle of water upon check in was a nice touch. Food prices were unreasonably overpriced for what you ordered! We opted to drive down the road and around the corner to eat in town instead.
• Gasper (10/5): Exceptional -
• Prerana (10/5): - Under Canvas was an excellent glamping experience. The property is very well maintained and has all necessities. The interiors in the tents are well planned and made the stay comfortable and peaceful. The shared bathrooms were clean. Staff is sweet and friendly. I would definitely recommend to book this place without any hesitation.
• Elizabeth (10/5): lovely stay with a dog - everything. the food was good, the tents were location, location was isolated, but still convenient
• Lynn (8/5): June 2023 - Staff was incredible. Special shout out to Rachel who helped us check in! Food was good. Accommodations were good too. Super job keeping the place clean too! 4 bathrooms for the amount of people was a bit lacking.
• Jennifer (10/5): Sleeping under the stars - Staff, service and location were amazing
• William (10/5): Exceptional -
• Larry (10/5): would stay here again and again - the overall location nothing
• Aprill (10/5): - Great experience! Highly recommend.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Not a quiet experience in the woods - If you are looking for a quiet experience in the woods this is not the place to go. Screaming kids the whole time and staff riding around on loud ATV's constantly. The tents are VERY close together and you can hear everything. Loud as the city until quiet hours start at 10pm. Will never stay here again. Way over priced.
