We recently stayed at Starlight Retreat and had a mixed but memorable experience. The tent itself was super cute and offered a fun glamping atmosphere. We did notice a few patched areas on the tent, but nothing that took away from the charm. One issue was that the power generator wasn't working during our stay, which meant we had no lamp and no way to charge devices or plug anything in. Since we visited in May, the nights were also quite cold, and that made the experience a bit challenging. I think this type of stay is probably better suited for adventurous travelers. Our group included my elderly parents (mid 60s), my aunt (mid 70s), and my 6-year-old child, so the lack of power and colder temperatures were harder on some members of our group than they might be for others. That said, my kid absolutely loved it and probably had the most fun of anyone there. Overall, it's a unique and charming place with a lot of character. Just be prepared for a more rustic experience, especially if you're traveling with older family members or young children.
