On offer here is reverse glamping: the basic, bare bones of camping combined with indoor shelter. Don't expect much and you'll be fine. These no-frills lodges and cabins will be pleasant enough for those looking for more comfort after several nights of camping in the backcountry. The largest cabin fits 10 people. There's a recommended restaurant on the property.
