A quick note about our tipis: these are authentic Sioux-style canvas structures, not traditional hotel rooms. Part of their charm is the connection they offer to the sights, sounds, and rhythms of nature.

Because they are canvas and intentionally open to the environment, they are not completely rainproof. During periods of rain, some water or moisture may make its way inside.

We absolutely love the unique glamping experience they provide and want you to arrive with the right expectations. Be sure to check the forecast and pack accordingly so you can fully enjoy your stay, whatever adventures Mother Nature has in store.

Other Things to Note:

Reservation Agreement

Lodgewell, as the management company, provides a separate reservation agreement sent to your personal email for digital signature. This document outlines specific house rules and expectations that go beyond the standard terms provided by the booking platform.



If you'd like to review the agreement prior to your stay, we are happy to share a copy upon request.



Road Conditions

The final stretch to the property is an unpaved caliche road. While an SUV or truck is helpful, it is not required.



Phone Signal

Please note that there is no mobile signal on the property.



Wi-Fi Access

We provide satellite-based Wi-Fi, which may be limited and weather-dependent. It’s best suited for light usage.



Tipi Rain Notice

As traditional tipis have an open center at the top, complete sealing is not possible. During heavy rain, a few drops of water may enter.



Air Conditioning

Portable AC units are provided but may struggle to keep up with high temperatures. These units typically cool to about 20°F below the outdoor temperature and perform best after sunset.



Natural Wear & Tear

Due to the outdoor nature of the accommodations, you may notice minor canvas wear such as light dirt, mold stains, or small tears. This is a normal part of the glamping experience.



Dark Skies

We encourage you to bring a flashlight or headlamp, as the property has minimal light pollution and can get quite dark after sundown.



Pets

Pets are welcome! A $25 fee per pet will be charged separately after booking.

We kindly ask that pets stay off the furniture to keep things fresh for everyone. An additional cleaning fee may apply if excessive pet hair is found.



Children

The property is not childproofed and resembles a natural camping environment. Expect gravel paths, wildlife encounters, and open terrain. Parents are responsible for determining if this setting is appropriate for their children.
