Site 2 - Tent camping in the mountains
I really enjoyed the resort. The place has a great vibe, the hosts were nice and accommodating. I came last minute and they were easy to work with. I caught trout in the stream right outside the place and it is a short walk to Laurel Falls.

Site 1 - Tent camping in the mountains
We lived camping here! There’s a slight drop off that a creek runs through that you have to be aware of especially if you have kids. But it was peaceful to hear the water and fire in the night. It rained both nights we were there so it was very muddy! Overall very nice place!

This was an excellent campsite, beautiful and affordable. Check-in was was easy and everyone working at the resort was very friendly. We were shown right to our site, which was well-maintained and not far from the main buildings. The showers, bathrooms, and other amenities were in great shape. We would definitely recommend!!

Neat, clean, questionably safe
Very interesting place, especially how eclectic it is and that they've created so many interesting camping sites from recycled pieces. The bathroom and showers were neat and clean. Personally, I didn't feel as safe as I have in other camps (solo female traveler). This could have been just me, and I realize this is a risk you take in such facilities, however, I just didn't feel much assurance from the owner after expressing a concern.
