It's a nice way to get a feel for the powerful experience that a redwood forest is....the scents, the sounds, the peacefulness, the sheer enormity of the trees.....and not wear yourself out. more on Epinions.com

The bathrooms and showers were spotless and well supplied (even liquid soap in the showers!) more on TripAdvisor

Coin-operated clothes washers and dryers are available in a restroom building in the tent cabin loop. more on Epinions.com
