Would not recommend with children. The tipi was not ideal for rainy days there were some leaks and the floor was soaked. There was black mould in there and the washrooms/outhouses were too far away. Not worth the small fortune it cost to camp. Save $ and pitch a tent in Banff or Canmore

This was an absolute surprise, these little cabins are adorable and the beds incredibly comfortable and warm. The fire place gave us a hard time but we think that may have been an us problem instead of the fire place. Overall, great place and would definitely come again.

Too Hot for Summer Camping (roasting hot)

Our tent has no shade from the sun. It was so hot and we can't even change to different tent even if we offered to pay extra. THe policy is no exception unless "something wrong with the tent itself". The weather that day was 28°C and we have no choice to to seek shade around our camp until 6pm before it was cool enough to even seat in front of our tent. This has to be our worst camping experience. By day break we left as soon as possible.

Tepee entrance is too small. Couldn’t bring my bag inside so had to unpack on the picnic table. Luckily it wasn’t raining. Strong smell of kerosene from the heater. Property was clean, staff was very helpful. Would go back to try the prospector tents but wouldn’t recommend the tepees.

This is a place for camping, you'll need to bring or rent stuff to cook, sleep, etc. If you have they clear, then you'll have a great time. The tents are well maintained and mear yhe office they have a small store to get some last minute items. Each tent has its own parking, fire pit and in common areas they have games.

I regret to share that our stay here on fists night was extremely uncomfortable due to the heater in the tent not functioning properly. We were with our young child, and unfortunately, she was unable to fall asleep until around 3 a.m. because of the cold. Eventually, we had no choice but to take her to the car, where we spent the rest of the night sleeping in the vehicle. As you can imagine, this was not what we expected or hoped for, and it was quite distressing for us as a family. Due to this experience, we have decided not to continue with the remaining two nights of our reservation. We kindly requested a refund for the unused nights, as we were unable to enjoy the full experience due to the heating issue, which made the tent unsuitable for our stay, especially with a child involved. Contacted them twice and they said they’ll call back. But didn’t receive a call yet. Sent them 2 emails. No reply yet for any email. Very disappointed.

It was our first glamping experience, and we loved it. It was so peaceful and quit being in the nature. Place was easy to find it and staff was so friendly.
