I stayed at the Oxford for two nights and was sad to leave! The tiny house was well stocked and absolutely delightful, convenient and comfortable! I was solo traveling so I think with a second person it would be a bit more tight if you had a lot of luggage. I hope to be back again soon!

I loved the mountain hiking we could walk right up to from our porch. We got to explore the mountain without an exact trail, and it was easy to find our way back to camp. I also loved that there was a gas stove, a gas grill, charcoal grill, campfire pit with an affixed grill, and a gas fire pit...so many options for cooking and sitting by a fire to make staying out in nature easier and more relaxing. Also the campground was quiet and clean. We used this as a hotel in nature rather than camping, and I would recommend it for either purpose.

Staying in the yurt was a fun, unique experience and the facilities were very clean. Big problem is that we were not able to hang out in the Yurt until ~ sun down (8pm) because it was like an oven during the hot day. Makes sense; it is just a big tent. We ran the ac unit and fan but that didn't help. We opened the windows but still not much improvement. It cooled down when outside cooled down. We hung out in the club house and played pool for a couple hours; it would've been a lot more disappointing if we had arrived earlier in the day.

Some friends and I booked the tiny homes while we were there for a wedding. All of us have backgrounds in hotels, but I might have been the only one with a background in camping... I found my stay to be very enjoyable! You are staying on a campsite in a tiny home, not at the Ritz. The tiny home was just that, a full home, just tiny! If I were to suggest just one thing, it would be to invest in some floor mats for the inside of the units. It was wet while we were there and we tried not to bring our wet shoes into the home, but there wasn't a great way to escape that. Overall, 10 out of 10! I can't wait to go back!

We stayed at one of those tiny homes. It was cute and comfortable for six of us. The only thing is the heater. it got really hot where the queen bed was, but all the other area stayed pretty cold. So some of us were sweating at night but some of us were freezing. Other than that we didn’t have any problems. Had beautiful view of mountains, got to see some deer on the site as well. Overall we very much enjoyed the stay!

Staying here was a bit of a letdown. The place wasn't quite as clean as we expected, and for the amount we paid (over $200 for 1 night) we definitely expected better. While the location was convenient and the outdoor firepit was a nice touch, the overall stay didn't match the cost. To be fair, nothing was super dirty; it was more about the wear and tear, dead bugs on the windowsill where your pillows are, and billions of goat heads. I'm not sure if there's much they can do to fix that. Wouldn't recommend if you have pets either. If you get off the small rock oath there are literally hundreds of goat heads. They were stuck in our shoes and there’s no way a dog would be able to walk around. Will return but not for a tiny home stay. The grounds were cute and had everything you’d need. The lounge area was also a nice touch that we utilized in the morning.
