They were great in helping us get settled and easy to communicate with. I wish they would have provided towels (even as an option- we brought our own). The stars were amazing and we all agreed that the beds were SOOO comfortable!

Wander Camp not as Expected

Published Date: Sep, 29, 2024 Travel Date: Sep, 1, 2024 Rating: 4 I feel that this space is cute and an option If you have never camped before and want the experience, but for seasoned campers it doesn’t quite hit the mark - here’s why: the facilities just aren’t adequate in terms of bathroom amenities. As others have mentioned - more toilets separate from the shower stalls is necessary. Even pit toilets or portapotties …maybe propane burning toilets? I’m curious - wondering if there is some reason why they don’t have more or other options? Some legislation limiting the type or #? Only 4 toilets for 50ish sites doesn’t seem adequate and often people were having to wait as others did their business or worse yet had a shower. And for the price point per night I think it is fair to export more.
It’s a bit far from the park so people were up and going as early as 4am to hike so again if this is your goal it might be suitable. Our party wasn’t in a rush to get out in the am so the car doors and vehicles driving by interrupted our sleep a bit in the morning. The tents are also closer together than we had expected so you can hear people talking.
The little canteen wasn’t open when we stayed and we were told it is now closed for the season. Wasn’t a big deal but I was curious as I’d read the food was decent.
In our experience the beds were not as comfortable as we had read in other reviews. The queen bed we had consisted of two single frames so made a lot of noise when one rolled over or shifted in the night. It also sagged in the centre.
The tents are nice and spacious and decor is cute. I was surprised with how clean the linens were.
The dark night skies would have been the highlight but I think I’d stay in a hotel (with private bathroom and other amenities) closer to the Canyon and just venture in to an area to stargaze.

2 and 1/2 miles down a bumpy dirt road

There were dirty footprints from the previous occupants. We woke up to big red ants in our tent. The shared showers were filthy and the floor in the entire bathroom was wet and dirty. I’m unsure if it ever got cleaned. The cook for the food truck couldn’t come to work so there was no food for the duration of our stay. Overall, I’m being generous by giving it three stars.
Off grid glamping, basic but lovely

Published Date: Sep, 4, 2024 Travel Date: Sep, 1, 2024 Rating: 4 We spent two nights here in order to visit the Canyon.
Bed was so comfortable, and the tent was lovely.
The facilities are very very basic, toilets and a very basic shower, but you are totally off grid so to be expected.
Check in was very easy and friendly.
Unfortunately couldn’t see the Milky Way as hoped but saw a very beautiful night sky.
About 30 minutes to the Canyon, easy to find.
