“We were thrilled to arrive and see the set up. So secluded and comfortable. Two days of hiking and two nights of campfire, yummy food and sweet dreams.”
“We loved the tent. It rained for the first two days and it was really great not to have to set up our own tents in the rain when we arrived. The bed was great too. The toilet was somewhat problematic in that the board that holds up the bucket was broken and the bucket kept tipping to one side. But it was nice to have it available on the deck right outside the door. Think I might prefer an old fashioned outhouse to carrying out my waste, however. One other issue: the previous renter left food waste (cucumber slices in a neat pile, potato....) on the edge of the campsite. That poses a risk of attracting bears and should have been cleaned up before the next rental. Future renters should know that the trail into site D is about 1/4 of a mile and very rough with large rocks, tree roots and mud puddles posing a real challenge while carrying your stuff into and out of the site. We tried using a garden cart to haul our stuff but no way was it able to go down that trail! LOL”
“Location is amazing. Alot of privacy and its absolutely beautiful. I really wish we would of had the things they said where provided. Such as the 5 gallon tank for water or directions to the water supply. Wagons were said to be supplied and they had then at the other tent sites but not ours. I do however 100% recommend coming to camp with them. No cell phone serviceand away from everyday life was the exact break we had been needing.”
“My earlier review was deleted by Tentr. My guess is because I gave a bad review. Had to fight through the customer service sector to get a refund, which they finally did give, but only after an "investigation" on their part. The end of the line is that they dropped the ball for our trip. Half the amenities werent there, the tent was disgusting, there was no heater, and the site looked like it was left that way by the last campers. It was obvious nobody had checked it. The trash was full to the top, which could create a dangerous scenario with bears. Be wary, this site is WAY off the beaten path and a challenge to get to if you're staying with more than one nights gear. All in all, not all its cropped up to be.”
“This was a beautiful site tucked into the woods. Very comfortable bed with a great fire/grill set up -even a storage cabinet for cooking supplies. Many others complained about the GPS directions and communication issues but we did not have those issues. Parking was easy at the trail head with signage that says “Tentrr site D”.
My biggest recommendation to future guests is to NOT bring a wagon for hauling items to your site. There are rocks and tree roots that will make pulling a wagon near impossible. Just plan to pack everything in a backpack for transporting. Plan to get your boots muddy too.
If you want a fire, you’ve gotta pack the wood in. There is no fire wood sold in the park. Missed profit opportunity, eh? It’s sold in the town nearby. We were told we can take dead wood around the site but that only gets you so far if you’re cooking on the fire and enjoying the fire for many hours a day.
Site D is about a 15 minute walk. Not bad but keep this in mind when packing. It was worth it to have the privacy. You will hear the folks occasionally at site E.
The loo camping toilet was a bit of a mystery to me at first. Poop in a bucket and do what with it?! Turns out, you use a new bag for each use and then discard the bags in the trash can provided on site. Basically you’re going into a plastic bag inside a bucket. It’s not that bad. Of course, most people probably hike out to use the park facilities. The lodge is only about a 3 minute drive away if you can’t stand the idea of #2 in a glorified bucket in the woods. Bring extra bags just in case.
While we had a full propane tank and heater, we couldn’t get it to work. We read the directions and tried for an hour but no luck. Bummer as it got down into the 20’s at night. Luckily we packed for cold weather in the event the heater didn’t work.
And finally, while the site said it had a water canister to refill water, it did not. We brought our own so this wasn’t a problem for us. Something to keep in mind when packing for your trip. Access to clean water is top priority for us and our dog.
Tentrr is onto something with the glamping in the backwoods, but they’ve got some kinks to work out still. I would try it again somewhere else but would keep my expectations low.”
“The site itself was great, except no propane heat as described, but we did not need it so it was not an inconvenience.
Getting GPS coordinates was not easy. We were sent an email to contact a person to get directions, that person went back to college and was helpful with getting us another contract person. The second person took hours to answer but said he had to give us a third contact. The third contact did not answer so we had to contact person #2 again. And hour later we finally received our GPS coordinates.
After all the confusion, Tentrr was great!”
