A wonderful place to spend the night

The property was very nice, I enjoyed the interactive troll themed hiking trails and spring fed hot tubs in the evening. Cabins were clean and cozy, probably the comfiest mattress I slept on durning my trip. Each cabin had a small mini fridge and the shared bathrooms were only a 30 second walk away. Restaurant on site was good as well, friendly staff and delicious food. The waterfall is overlooks was stunning. All in all this was my favorite stay of my trip, I hope to return in the future.

We stayed one night, but it was enough to get countless bites on both our arms and legs—both my partner and me. We slept with the windows closed, aware that we didn’t want to get bitten, but that measure didn’t help. We’ve been suffering from the itchiness of the bites for several days now.

This place is a gem! The pods are not huge but very cozy - more than what we needed. Finding the place was easy and staff was super nice. Parking is right next to your pod. You will need to bring your beddings or you can rent there for a fee. The little hiking trail right next to it and the wifi/common area was a nice plus, and the spa too! The restaurant offers an amazing view and their breakfast is very decent. A small problem we had was that the washrooms did run out of toilet papers sometimes. Overall well worth the money, recommend!!

the bathrooms are a good 5 to 10minute walk from your stay, but these pods were so cute and memorable. we loved our stay here! the night skies were clear and we were able to see both stars and northern lights together. it's nestled into a woodsy area so it was very quiet and peaceful.

My second time staying at the pods. Such a beautiful setting. Friendly staff, great food - with a view of a mountain and waterfall. Shared bathroom is worth it for the price.
The best spot for breakfast or dinner
So cozy- the bed is comfy and the black out curtain worked great.

Excellent!

Stayed in small camping pod and loved it. Loved the atmosphere there. Overall, much greater than I expected, and I already was excited for the stay. the restaurant overlooking the waterfalls and river, the troll garden stroll, the hot tubs. All superb. It is in a remote area and provided us an excellent view of the northern lights, which we watched from the hot tub. Ideal experience, I recommend giving it a shot.

When home wishing I could escape, this is always my favorite choice! It takes 12 hours of flights and two hours driving, but there is no place I’d rather be.
