Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
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.
Their glamping tents are well kept and has all the amenities you would need for camping in the mountains. Their location is perfect and their communication with campers regarding property info rules and regulations are organized.
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!
