The host was welcoming and informative about the property. There were fun animals to enjoy. The sky view is perfect. The host set us up to enjoy a campfire while we stargazed. The eco-potty worked great. We came in late December and the weather was amazing. Outdoor shower and potty might be more daunting in colder weather. Less than an hour from entry of BBNP.
