Your canvas tent will nestle in a gorgeous spot, far from any permanent structures. We’ll make up your beds with fine linens and layout plush rugs. We will hang oil lanterns. Prepare meals on the coals of your campfire. Keep you safe. And let nature do the rest.
Look out for shooting stars. Find nesting birds. Trail through sun-kissed grasslands. And know that anything can appear in camp at any time.
This temporary camp honors a wilder time. It’s romance. It’s simplicity. It’s spirit of adventure. You’ll remember that you are nature. And nature is home.
