We would stay here time and time again. I love that we got the camping experience without all the stress of packing/setting up/putting away camp gear! The beds and linens were so comfortable. Staff was super nice and even got a fire going after a big storm. Loved it and wk recommend to all our friends!

It was a nice experience. The staff are friendly and reliable. However, who ever decided to install the bathroom mirror all the way up so no one can see their faces needs a pay cut. The actual Tipi is clean and they provided adequate blanket/ comforter for the freezing weather in the morning. Overall the experience is unique and I would still recommend this place.

This was a great, unique stay for us. We loved the family size tent and it was very comfortable. The inside of the tent was set up very nice and had a cozy feel. The area was beautiful, and we would visit again.

A great ‘camping’ experience

If you want a camping experience but you get to sleep in a real bed, this is it. Plus for a camping-like situation, the bathrooms are AMAZING. The nightly s’mores make this a winner too!

This was a fun experience of camping in comfort! The beds were so comfortable. We were worried about being too cold at night, as we came at the end of the season. However, the amazing beds and extra blankets kept us warm, and we slept very well. Bathrooms were clean and showers were hot. A fun way to "camp" near Yellowstone!

We paid for gas heater due to temp getting down to mid 30's and the gas tank they brought was maybe half full, and the gas ran out at 2 AM and we packed up to leave due to being cold and accdently left some of our stuff, as the solar lights were dim and it was hard to see. We called and asked about our stuff and they said they never found it

The tent was very comfortable and surrounded by trees. Although the campground was quiet, you could hear the highway traffic. The grounds were poorly maintained with inadequate mowing around tents and on paths.

We enjoyed our stay. It had rained a bunch so it was muddy on the roads. The tents were clean and had plenty of blankets, it got down in the 30s at night. They offered heaters for a small fee. They provided towels as well. Battery in tent worked great for what we needed, lamp, fan, charging phones, hair straightener.

This glampsite is still under construction. We received an email prior informing us, it promised us we wouldn’t notice much and they insured us excellent temporary sanitary facilities. However, the roads on the site were very bad and the temporary sanitary provisions were dirty, a couple out of order, just overall terrible! A lot of work needs to happen there to make it a good experience.

Limited bathroom and shower area, always waiting in line, the longest waiting time over 30 minutes. electric supply from solar are so bad, only last for few hours even only used for phone charge and one dim light. No water line other than bathroom.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
What you do not see when viewing this property is that it is all under construction. No bath or showers have been completed, there were portable bath and shower only, no office structure, road tore up from construction, etc. The tee pee we stayed in was actually very nice I must say. It was clean, had two solar lights, comfy beds and nicely decorated. This is just off the highway which you hear cars and trucks constantly so be aware of that. For $334.95 plus and additional $25 for propane heater for one night seemed like a heck of a lot for one night of clamping in an under construction resort with highway sounds that drowned out any nature sounds.

Need to finished Restroom before renting out!!!!

The ideas is great, BUT they need to finished building the Restroom before renting the location out. I stayed for 3 nights and was only able to use the restroom 1 time, the other 2 night i have to wake up and drove 4 miles down the road to use the gas station restroom. No running water, good thing i have a case of water with me, and that what used. The rest room was out off toilet paper and no water.If it rain the road will get muddy and your car will get stuck. The only good thing is the tent was new and clean, BUT NO WATER OR USEABLE RESTROOM. I rather go in the wood, but cant do that. Also you be along cows, be careful where you step…
