We had a truly wonderful stay - made exceptional by the phenomenal staff, who were more attentive and welcoming than at many high-end hotels! It was heartwarming to see how genuinely happy and engaged everyone seemed. This experience offered the perfect opportunity to disconnect from electronics and reconnect with nature in the most peaceful setting.
A real highlight was the evening musician - a beautiful and unexpected touch that made the atmosphere feel extra magical. What truly elevated our stay, though, were the thoughtful little details: complimentary hot chocolate, a selection of herbal teas, cozy blankets, hot water bottles, and of course, the sâmores by the fire. We felt genuinely cared for throughout our visit.
If thereâs one area for improvement, it would be the pull-chain shower. While the water was perfectly hot, the setup made showering a bit tricky, especially for someone like me with long, thick hair and I didnât feel I would have been able to wash my hair with this set up. A more functional alternative, like a galvanized steel tub (indoors or outdoors) with a log-burning stove to heat the water, would have made this a 10/10 experience and somewhere Iâd happily spend my entire trip in the U.S (at the various Under The Canvas locations).
That said, this place is truly special, and the shower inconvenience didnât take away from the overall magic. Thank you to the wonderful team at Under Canvas for such a memorable and restorative stay!
