Fabulous Stay in
Wanted to say thank you to Keshia for such an incredible experience! The location was easy to find, extremely clean (despite being outside) and very comfortable. Host was very communicative and willing to answer any questions. We also had everything we needed to maximize our experience (fire wood, matches, cooking tools, extra blankets, etc). One of our favorite parts of the stay was enjoying sunrise and sunset in the hammock park! Our only regret was forgetting to sign the guestbook!

Beyond incredible
Brought my teens here for a quick family getaway and we had the best time. We connected with each other, played games and experienced the joy of camping under the stars without the discomforts. AMAZING!!

What an Experience
Such an unforgettable stay! Views were amazing, we had everything we needed, and good communication with Keshia throughout the stay! Woke up for the sunrise and was greeted with coffee and tea which we thought was incredibly thoughtful. No electricity but we were provided a lantern and power box to charge electronics. Comfortable king bed that fit three of us! I’m a light sleeper and appreciated the ear plugs for when it got a bit windy, and slept peacefully through the night. On site bathroom and shower as well! Tents are pretty spaced out to provide privacy also. We will definitely be back in the future <3

A Beautiful and Unique Experience.
The directions and assistance provided by Kiesha and Eric were spot on and we had no issues finding the location. Kiesha graciously met us at the entrance and showed us to our tent. She was warm and welcoming and shared the story of their inspiring move to Utah. We stayed in the four-person tent, and it was exactly as depicted in the listing. The care shown in the furnishing and outside amenities were obvious. Outdoor dining on the deck, four hammocks, and a fire pit were perfect for enjoying the sunset. The bathroom is clean and immaculate, with ample hot water. The evening was spent around the campfire enjoying the quiet, the stars, and each others' company. Waking up in the morning to hot coffee and hot chocolate was the perfect way to finish our visit. Thank you Keisha and Eric--We will be back and we can't wait! Travis.
