Branch Out Glamping

“Great place to unwind and relax.”

“The AC wasn't on when we checked in. The inside was extremely hot & you couldn't stay in there for well over an hour. Having someone get the AC going prior to checking in would have made this a 5 star experience”

“prices changed consistently and the whole porta potty situation was a nightmare, the shower was awful, the fan didn’t work, and the light continually went out!”

“The location itself is beautiful and secluded, but the listing needs to be much more transparent about what it takes to get there. The property is on a ranch on top of a mountain and requires roughly 30 minutes of driving on a rough, unpaved, rocky trail with little to no cell service. There were no clear instructions beforehand about the road conditions, what type of vehicle is appropriate, or what to expect. Unfortunately, I broke a taillight on the way up and later had to replace it. When I called for help finding the property, the person managing the amenity seemed more annoyed than willing to assist, which was frustrating given the lack of directions and service. The amenity itself was also very hot and not nearly as fresh or comfortable as it was outside. This could be enjoyable for someone seeking a rugged, remote experience with a suitable vehicle, but I would not recommend it for the average traveler without much clearer warnings and instructions.”

“The views were beautiful, however, for someone who is deathly afraid of heights, I wish I knew that the road to get here was going to borderline give me a panic attack, otherwise I wouldn’t have stayed here. This is of course not their fault. I also did not see on the listing at first that the tiny homes here do not have AC. It felt expensive for a room with no AC and a bunk bed. There was supposed to be water we could use to drink and wash our hands, however, it was not hooked up. Other than the cleaning of the tiny home itself, the bathrooms and shower areas did not seem to be taken care of. The bathroom door near my tiny home did not shut and the toilets wouldn’t flush. For the price of this, I wish I would’ve gone somewhere with more amenities. They also exclusively say on their website that this is a serene stay and there is absolutely no music to be played after 7pm. My tiny home neighbors played music well past 1am. The crew that works here even rode by with a thumbs up to them”

“The site was beautiful and the tent was comfortable. The only issue was the bathrooms were not maintained well and the area around our tent was slightly overgrown. We would definitely book again in hopes that the facilities would be better stocked and cleaned.”

“We booked this property because it was advertised as a peaceful family camping retreat. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. Our 20-month-old daughter, Evie’s, very first camping trip ended early because of the extremely loud fireworks and surrounding noise. She became terrified, and we made the decision to leave that night and pay for a hotel rather than continue our stay. What disappointed us most was not only the experience itself, but how it was handled afterward. We communicated respectfully, remained patient, and gave the host every opportunity to work toward a fair resolution. The host declined to provide any refund, while Airbnb independently reviewed the situation and provided us with a partial refund. Families with young children should carefully consider whether this property during holiday weekends matches the peaceful experience advertised. We left disappointed and cannot recommend this stay based on our experience. Airbnb listened. The host didn’t.Very Disappointed”

“First of all the host and the views made us stay the full first night. The unit and the location itself however I think there was some misunderstanding and misrepresentation. Unit says 1 bed 1 bath but doesn’t disclose it’s basically an outhouse. I think glamping is a bit of a stretch. There was AC in the unit and that was as glam as it got. The showers are outdoor communal and campsite style showers which again if you’re expecting it, cool. I don’t think the bathroom and shower situation is explained well enough. You will be walking a decent distance through dirt from your unit to the showers. We didn’t even use said showers we just left and booked an actual hotel. It is dark at night and the road leading up is ROUGH. It is difficult to navigate so make sure you do check in around 3:00. I think we might visit again if we plan to actual camp again. That road was truly something else! Not what we anticipated.”

“Unfortunately, our experience was not good and will not be returning. Place has potential but it’s unkept and no one around to clean or maintain anything. It almost looks abandoned.”

“The place doesn’t match the photos. That’s not glamping, the tent was full of spiders and we couldn’t sleep in it we slept in the car even tho it was freezing cold. The bed smelled as if it they haven’t changed the sheets in decades and the bathroom was only an RV bathroom for the whole place. The hosts were irresponsive and we couldn’t get a hang of anyone over-there and it took us quite some time to reach our tent given we arrived around midnight and it was very dark.”
