Great spot! Comfy bed! And we stayed surprisingly warm in those tents for late September. They use quality bedding! Don’t forget your towel! Loved the wildlife and the sunrises.

It's a cute rustic place to stay. There was no breakfast or supper offered as stated online. You should eat before you arrive. There is a shower in two of the bathrooms. Not heat.

This camp is very basic, for people who have not camped before it might be a big experience..... there is absolutely no shade, so if you arrive and it is hot.... it is unbearable.
We took the chairs from our tent and sat down in the dry creek bed in the shade of the trees until it cooled down a bit.
We are experienced campers and used to remote sites, so found it comfy, toilets and showers were clean, beds were great...
It has so much potential to be a really great site but just feels like the tents have been put in the area.... tracks are a little dodgy between tents so take a torch or your phone....
A central rotunda or open shed with a camp kitchen and some shade would be amazing..
There is no food or cooking facilities on site.... so you need to byo something that doesnt require cooking or go into the local town which has a couple of restaurants and a decent little supermarket.
It was fire restrictions when we were there so no camp fires for cooking.... but there are also no supplies to do so if you could...
There was also no one on site at all to greet or assist.. find your name on a board and go to your tent....
Enjoyed the spot and experience.... but can see why it was a lot for some people...
Amazing. They need to communicate quicker and earlier and better. I had questions: no response for too long. They sent me a text the day of saying I needed 4wd, which I didn’t have and it woulda been too late anyway. They sent me an email, which I skimmed because I am busy, that talked about dining but was not for our site. Besides the communication issues. We LOVED our experience.

It’s a great experience. But hard for city people not to take a nice shower. I still loved the stay, and if I was to camp again it would be this style tents.

We didnt stay tent was too hot n they had no shade cover anywhere in which that should be one of the next projects
Is was my first time ever glamping. The place is nice but there's some key aspects that need improvement. The night we stayed in rained several times. There were several leaks inside our tent that not only wet the floor but the beds as well. The main zipper was broken not fully closing the tent. At the showers, we had to keep the cord pulled down because water wouldn't keep coming out. It was very muddy, we saw that it wasn't only hard for us to walk but to other guests as well, almost to the point of falling.
The tents do have everything you need for a night.
We loved the tent concept and the beds were very warm and comfy. It was also lovely hearing the rain on the tent during the night. Will come again in the future.

Awful
Address on Hotels.com was inaccurate. The host didn’t advise that you need an all wheel drive or similar vehicle to get to the site.
Host argued that they “sent specific instructions 1 hour before check in” but the text message was a link to the other instructions which the host did not indicate was a link.
Property was unusable. River washed out the access road and no refund was offered. Rip off big time. Do not stay at this place

very deceptive!
There was no host on arrival, which we knew. Though we arrived to a parking lot full of trash, not welcoming at all!
Moreover the following morning there was no water available, thus no functioning toilets and showers!!
The idea of this property is pretty cool. But it completely misses the mark! The bath house was out of water! The heaters all had empty propane tanks! It dropped to 47 degrees and there was no heat or electricity. There is no staff on site. When another renter showed up their tent zipper was broken and no one returned their call so they left. Another tent completely collapsed. It’s next to a highway so it’s noisy. I would not recommend this property to anyone!
Great comfy beds and clean bathrooms/showers! Great staff. Easy drive to Bryce Canyon and good restaurants near. The stars are remarkable at night. Can’t wait to stay again!
