With 2000 feet of waterfront along the picturesque Coldwater Creek, this nature retreat is a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life, set within a sprawling 20-acre landscape. Accommodations at The Wandering Path are designed for those seeking a peaceful retreat. Four glamping tents, equipped with real full-size beds, portable AC for summer, heaters for winter, and essential amenities, ensure a comfortable stay amidst nature. Each tent is adorned with solar string lights, and outdoor essentials like a picnic table, fire pit ring, small charcoal grill, and trash can are provided. For those who prefer a more raw connection with nature, four primitive campsites are available, each equipped with solar string lights, a fire pit ring, and a trash can.

There is now an outdoor kitchen for all guests to use. There is no cookware, silverware or dishes. There is a counter-top oven, toaster, 2 stove top burners, 1 flat top griddle, sink and keurig coffee maker. There are reusable k-cups for you to put your own coffee in, or your own k-cups.

Fantastic spot for tent camping

The Wandering Path #8 -hike-in site

We had a fantastic time staying at The Wandering Path. Stayed at tent site #8 which is more secluded and it worked out perfectly since we had a pup with us. This was a nice in-between of a typical state park style campground and backcountry camping. The spots are spread out enough so you aren’t on top of your camp neighbors but you still have a picnic table, fire ring and access to some facilities like an outdoor kitchen and a bathhouse, both of which were very nice and extremely clean. Amanda is a fantastic host and I am looking forward to spending more time camping at the wandering path in the future!

The Wandering Path Yurt #3

The whole experience was amazing. Amanda was very helpful and was nice to talk to. The bathroom set up and kitchen set up was nice and clean. She had small heater, fan, lamp, and heated blanket that made it more comfortable for the cold nights and warm daytime. I liked how she also proved a grill and trash can for each yurt site. I hope to come back again to enjoy the kayaking and nature view.

The Wandering Path, Primitive #5

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at camp site #5. It was large enough for our 6 person tent. 4 of us stayed there comfortably. The grounds were beautiful and peaceful. The bathrooms were perfect. The host was very kind. We will be back!

The Wandering Path Yurt #7

The Wandering Path is always a refreshing experience. The Yurt was perfect. It was pretty chilly and rainy at night, but we stayed warm and dry. It is by far my favorite place to camp. All the interaction I have had with other campers, has been wonderful. Everyone is kind, friendly, and genuinely there to have a good time. It’s always an all around great experience. If you have the opportunity to stay at the Wandering Path, do it! You can’t go wrong with any camping spots. I can’t wait to return!!

The Wandering Path, Primitive #5

This place has to be the best place to primitive camp anywhere around here. Very quiet and very pleasant area. Highly recommended.
