"This was our first AutoCamp stay… and it won’t be our last. The price is a splurge for us but to date, it is by far our favorite stay on our two week trip - 10 different lodgings. Bre checked us in and showed us our tent. She was absolutely fabulous… like we were genuinely sad she had to work and couldn’t just hangout with us. The adventure tent is just enough outdoors without the having hard part of camping. The bed was to die for… we had a king-size bed. We ate pizza from the kitchen, bought/drank a bottle of wine, and listened to live music. We thought the music was superb. The store is small but extremely well stocked. We bought a s’mores kit and made smores over a fire after dinner. The restrooms are separate, but very close, air conditioned, and well-lit at night."
