This fall has been so eventful as we have been busy setting up backyard birthday glamps while also training for an ultramarathon. When we aren’t spending our time running around (quite literally), we have loved helping others make some fun memories during this challenging time. Some highlights over the last couple of months include; backyard sleepover parties with the big screen, glamping on a farms, catered glamping with chefs, partnering with Waradeca Brewing Company and decorating tons of spooky yurts for Halloween parties. Right now we are starting to book up for Christmas and New Years Eve celebrations. Think happy hour parties under the dancing LED lights while listening to Christmas music (Alexa, play Mariah Careys- All I Want for Christmas is Yurts!) We are currently offering Gift Certificates for future Glamping because let’s face it, 2020 is the perfect year to give the gift of a unique experience. Our hearts are full as we have loved all of the positive feedback we’ve been getting from our customers and look forward to helping you cross glamping off your bucket list. Give us a call to chat about your Glamping dates, We could all use a little FaLaLaLaLa these days and we’re happy to customize your experience to make it festive!
