The luxury tent also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Amazing! I literally have no words – this place blew my mind. Steve and Joanna are so warm and genuine, and you can see their love in every single detail of the setup. It’s like they thought of everything before I even knew I wanted it. The hot tub under the stars was unforgettable, the sunrise soak was just as amazing, and the morning coffee was perfect. Truly a 10/10 stay.
