More about this place
The space
Four canvas bell tents sit on platforms behind the main house, each in its own campsite. Yours has a new memory-foam queen mattress and a private outdoor seating area with a propane fire pit.
The tents are off grid. The camp club house is fully powered and holds everything you need to prepare a meal, shower and get ready for the day. A continental breakfast is provided, and we keep a rotating selection of quick portioned meals for purchase if you would rather not bring anything.
The tent has a propane heater and solar fans, and each tent gets one propane tank for the stay. Nights at this elevation run much colder than the days, so check the overnight low before you pack.
Guest access
The lavender field and the animal farm are yours to wander. Ask us for a farm tour if you want to go inside the enclosures. Please stay out of the other guests' campsites so everyone has some privacy.
Rates
$90 per night, plus a one-time $40 cleaning fee. A week or longer takes 10% off the nightly rate.
