Our accommodations are rustic and do not come with electricity or heating. Accommodations come equipped with beds and mattresses, however guests will need to bring their own bedding. We recommend our guests pack according to the weather.
NEW 2021: We are offering an accommodation upgrade to guests who would like to sleep in our finished cabins. Cabin upgrades are limited and are available on a first-come first-served basis. To upgrade to a cabin, one member from a group of guests can choose their cabin upgrade and indicate the guests that will join them in the cabin.
