Best rate, fewer middlemen.
Booking through this page saves you the OTA service fee (usually 14–18% on top of the nightly rate). It's our preferred way — and the cheaper one for you. Same tents, same hosts, same hot tubs.

"The hosts thought of everything — coffee, robes, a fire already laid in the pit. We left feeling like we'd actually been on vacation."
"Came expecting a tent and ended up in a small house with canvas walls. Bed beats a lot of the hotels we've stayed in this year."
"The cove at sunrise — I took the kayak out and didn't see another boat for an hour. The whole reason we'll be back."
"Easy gate code, AC was already cold, hot tub was already hot. Got in at 9pm without ever talking to a person and felt completely taken care of."
"I keep going back to this place. It's a small operation but every detail is finished to the level you'd want it. The water is the magic."
"Booked direct, saved enough on the OTA fees to cover a really nice dinner in downtown Hickory. Easy to recommend."
