We almost decided to stay home with reports of incoming less than ideal weather for the Thanksgiving long weekend. Thankfully we made the decision to proceed with our weekend away and our stay could not have been any more perfect. The family glamping tent was spacious and comfortable for our family of 6. We had no issues keeping the tent warm throughout our stay and were provided more than enough wood to keep the wood burning stove going when we needed it. Our kids enjoyed exploring the path down by the river and playing in the snow around our site

Super cute glamping cabin, so close to the city, but still feels like a little get away. Just remember to pack like you're for the most part still going camping (ie. bring garbage supplies, cookware, etc). We will be back!

Great staff, the glamping tent was exactly as described, bed was super comfy. The kerosene heater did well until it snowed and got quite cold to be in a glamping tent. But the weather aside, the staff were amazing, washroom/showers were clean and well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash, outhouses were kept tidy and well stocked with toilet paper. 10/10 would and will come back in warmer months or with more foresight into the forecast if coming back in late fall/early winter
Arrived around 8:40-8:45pm in the dark, but had to turn the lights on to get a super cute photo from outside
The interior, from outside the door. Out of frame to the right is the kerosene heater and a second side table.

The place is beautiful, i would definitely return. The only downside on our overnight stay was the heater would not turn on and for some reason the firewood would not keep burning. We have to restart it every like 15mins.

Booked through Expedia but the campsite itself didn’t book the correct campsite. Our campsite was supposed to fit 6 people they had us in a tipi. Ended up giving us 2 side by side tents on a walk in site.

The Tipee was a really fun experience. We called ahead to reserve our bedding (accommodations do not come with bedding, it’s an extra fee) and they had it ready and waiting for us. The lantern they let us borrow to get around was not very helpful but it was a thoughtful touch. The heater helped keep us warm! The staff was very helpful and was ready to help when we needed it. The market had reasonable prices so if you forget anything you’ll be able to pick it up!
