10% more effort and it wouod be excellent. Still enjoyed the stay and wouod recommend

·Cathrine·May 2026
Positive: I loved the little extras that was done. And then to top it off it started raining and the sound on the tent was just beautiful. The fireplace was amazing not once did I get cold or need extra blankets. The bed was amazing nice and firm. Direction was super clear on where I should go. Just loved it that it had no TV it was just what I needed to force me to relax.
