This places deserves all five stars. The one bad thing about it, is that it's so far from seattle!…read moreI wish it was closer so I could stay with them more often!
I was looking for a last minute weekend getaway for my one year wedding anniversary and I'm glad I found this! This was our first glamping experience and it was wonderful.
The tipi's were so cute and comfortable. They all have stone floors, a queen sized bed and lamps! All you have to bring are your clothes, they provide bedding and towels! We stayed plenty warm at night, and I am always cold! One tipi has a firepit inside, I hope we can get that one next time! There's also a large one that has two queen beds in it and can sleep up to about 8 people if you wanted!
There are two bathrooms, each with a toilet, sink and shower. Our tipi (Sacagawea) was the farthest tipi, but the distance to the bathroom was not bad at all! Even at night, the trail between tipi's and to the bathroom is lit with lights so you really don't even need a flashlight (we forgot one)!
Did I mention there's a hot tub?! It's a built in hot tub made of tile. It's quite a good size. Our last night there we had 8 people in it!
Bugs were not really a problem like I thought they would be. We didn't see a single bug in our tipi, even with the top flap open so we could see the stars! And believe me, I am not a bug person!
They provide a great breakfast, included in your stay! Pancakes, oatmeal, bread, fruit, eggs, yogurt, potatoes, lox, cheese... And of course coffee and tea! You can pay extra for dinner, which was amazing as well. We had grilled salmon, veggies and rice the first night. The second night we had a Spanish paella. Ken so kindly accommodated everyone's diet restrictions leaving things out for those who requested. They do not serve alcohol, but you are welcome to bring your own beer and wine. No hard liquor though.
This is such a great place to getaway from city life. It's so peaceful. There are plenty of sitting areas throughout the property as well as several hammocks, which we took a siesta in before dinner! The creek runs along the edge of the property which is so calming to hear and you can walk/play in it.
They do have wifi, but it only works close to the main building, which is where the meals are served. No one seemed to mind about the lack of Internet since we were all looking for an escape from reality.
Tipi village is a gem. I cannot wait to return with friends next time! I recommend this place to anyone who wants to relax and get away from life, even if you don't like the outdoors, this is very comfortable glamping!
