If you’re looking at this property, go ahead and book! It was charming, rustic, and awesome! The beds were soft and the bedding was luxurious. I wish we could have stayed a few extra days, but Yellowstone was calling!

Super fun and cute vibe. The nightly community bonfire was a nice touch, and the tipi/grounds in general were as clean as you could expect. We stayed in 5 different places during this trip and Starlight Retreat was the favorite of my children - we will likely return again in the future when able.

Loved the luxury bell unit we stayed in, very cozy nice vibes. Loved that showers and restrooms we available even though you were having those fixed because of the winter months. You guys honestly have everything perfect to make a comfortable space away from home. Incredible views, helpful staff, beautiful wildflowers, area for communal fire which was awesome. Eve the carbine monoxide monitor under the bed for the propane heaters! I will definitely stay here again if I get the chance!

Loved the tent, wish there was a bigger mat at the tent entrance for removing shoes. I wish parking areas were better groomed. The bathrooms are why the reviews are so low. They are too far away, and the female bathroom door was propped opened for most of our stay and males were using that side. The hosts were great! We had great interactions with each of them. You are hidden from the hwy, but still close to it. So I’d recommend earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.

Tent inside was okay. Beds were comfortable … toilets and showers were dirty. No toilet paper. No warm showers. No landing at the tent and it rained so there was a lot of mud puddles. Toilets was relatively far away from tent and with the rain it was too muddy to walk so we had to drive every time we wanted to go. Concept is great but I think with the price I paid I expected more.
