Staying here was a bit of a letdown. The place wasn't quite as clean as we expected, and for the amount we paid (over $200 for 1 night) we definitely expected better. While the location was convenient and the outdoor firepit was a nice touch, the overall stay didn't match the cost. To be fair, nothing was super dirty; it was more about the wear and tear, dead bugs on the windowsill where your pillows are, and billions of goat heads. I'm not sure if there's much they can do to fix that. Wouldn't recommend if you have pets either. If you get off the small rock oath there are literally hundreds of goat heads. They were stuck in our shoes and there’s no way a dog would be able to walk around. Will return but not for a tiny home stay. The grounds were cute and had everything you’d need. The lounge area was also a nice touch that we utilized in the morning.

Great view
We did a quick night stay in one of the mini houses which was just right for two with a comfortable bed and bathroom. Although a bit pricey, when really enjoyed our stay. The view was awesome as we sat by the gas fire pit watching the sunset. Communication and service was excellent.

Absikutely beautiful area and my Oxfore tiny house had everything i needed for a short stay. It also had bunch of hair on shower walls, dorty coffee cleaner and dusty stove. Looks like the place hasnt been cleaned properly. There was a fireput righr infornt of the house, wlso the grill, benches and breathtaking view especially around susnset time. The territory has basketball court, volleyball net, playiground and something around the office area but i didnt go there. Neither did i check the market out. Overall ill come back for sure, ill just bring some cleanex with me, just for funsies. Great place!

We stayed at one of those tiny homes. It was cute and comfortable for six of us. The only thing is the heater. it got really hot where the queen bed was, but all the other area stayed pretty cold. So some of us were sweating at night but some of us were freezing. Other than that we didn’t have any problems. Had beautiful view of mountains, got to see some deer on the site as well. Overall we very much enjoyed the stay!

We loved staying in the yurt! It was like no experience we’ve ever had. The view of the mountain during the day is incredible and the stars at night at breathtaking. We loved it here.
