Cozy stay

The bus was such a nice cozy stay! It is a smaller space, but slept 3 really comfortably. The hosts were very responsive and provided instructions for check in and check out! We had a great time exploring the woods and enjoyed the back story on how the Skooolie came to be!

My girlfriend and I came for the weekend with our dog, and I would 100% recommend. The decor on the inside of the bus was beautiful. All the necessities (dishes, towels, etc.) were provided. We used the pass for Pocahontas park, the closest parking was 5 minutes away and had some really nice trails. Claire even met us when we arrived and gave us some fresh eggs!

Fabulous Skoolie weekend getaway

Location, location, location. Everything that you would want to do is nearby. But we didn’t want to leave this awesome skoolie with all of its creature comforts and the beauty of this property.

Glamping at its best.

With pets

Such a lovely setting. It feels very private. The creek and trail are wonderful. And the bus interior is right out of Pintrest. The master bed was super comfy. We slept late in the morning because the bed felt so nice. Cameron and Chloe are so nice and helpful. Highly recommend.

This was a great stay. It was me and my partner, our dog and friend of ours. Definitely tight quarters inside (which is to be expected) but really surprisingly comfortable. The beds were great. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and the hosts were very responsive. 10/10 will come back.

Great place
