Lovely stay other than unreliable hot water (I think they were working on this), really nice location not far from the west entrance of Yellowstone. Beds are super cozy!

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!

Fantastic experience at a great price!
Wonderful property and staff. Instructions and directions were clear. Property was easy to find and in great location at a terrific price. Within 20 minutes of Yellowstone, restuarants, and shops. Safari tent was nice with comfortable beds and bedding. Nights were chilly but plenty of blankets were provided that kept us perfectly warm. Staff is friendly and helpful and work hard to keep the property in great condition. Bathrooms were clean and stocked and plenty of towels provided. Loved our stay, would definitely stay again when back in the area.

Great experience! There were no stores nearby, so bring your water/snacks. Also, bring some chairs if you want to spend time outside your tent. The bed was comfortable, and the staff were wonderful.

Family teepee was a good size, clean and well stocked with blankets. Staff was great and the bonfire with smores was fun. Cornhole, tether ball and swings were fun. Restrooms and showers were clean and there were a good number of them. Great experience!

Maddie was very welcoming at check in, she made sure we got bear spray, (just incasd) and
Towels to shower with. The nught was peaceful and the stars were amazing! We loved the mountain air. The morning we left. BLAKE got my attention and showed me aome moose, and he let me get my daughter so she could see them, sleeping not to far away from our yurt!
If you love sleeping under the stars, i recommend this place.

We stayed in a family Bell tent and it was awesome, best beds of our 19 days of travel. Star gazing through the ceiling windows, flowers out the front door. The community fire gave us connection & conversations plus s’mores, delightful. Thank you staff.

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.

Charming. Very clean. Mattresses felt brand new and so comfy. There was so much going on and things to do at the campground, my kids never once complained about the lack of electronic use. Of our 8 day road trip, this was our very favorite night.

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!

Great luxury tent! Very clean, beautiful grounds, just wish the bathroom was closer, but they were clean, wish coffee and tea were served earlier than 7:30 since we were leaving early to get into park, but overall a great place! Fun, family friendly!
