    It was really nice loved everything except One thing that I wanted to mention was checkin was pretty strict. We got there at 130pm earlier than check in time, we did not have any where to go but we could not even enter the camp area because we were staying at the the bell.... All other campers were allowed to enter little early..

    We had a ball. The only thing I would recommend is allowing visitors to open both sides of the tent on hot days

    We had a fabulous time! The cooking kit had everything we needed so it was easy to come in off our flight without packing camping gear. It was great to have the bookie boards too. The bed was more comfortable than the hotel we stayed at later in our trip!
