What are the tiny homes like?
All the tiny homes are around 160sqft in area plus a wooden a deck that acts like a sit out. The tiny homes are equipped with a toilet that includes a shower as well. A kitchen is provided with a stove and pots and pans. The homes are upcycled shipping containers that makes them extremely sustainable and reduces the carbon footprint of a building. Linen and quilts are provided for a comfortable stay in nature. You can see what all we offer in the cabins here.
Is it like glamping?
Well, not really. Its not a hotel and but its way more than camping. Its when nature and adventure meets the camping vibe with creature comforts. No check ins and check outs, forget the daily hustle and just enjoy putting your feet up and enjoying that much needed sunset while sipping on a locally grown coffee.
What all is included?
That’s the big question isn’t it? You will get fresh linen upon your arrival. Bath towels will be provided and also soap and shampoo for your usage. You will also be able to have meals that are provided on site. You’ll also be able to experience barbecues around the campfire.

What kind of things do I need to bring with me?
Since we essentially promote a minimalist lifestyle, we encourage you to bring overnight essentials like toothbrush, toothpaste and toiletries. Bring things depending on how long you plan to stay (clothes, etc.). We do provide a selection of books to read if you forget yours.
Is there mobile reception?
Most of the sites have very limited mobile reception because they are secluded in nature. But we understand the desire to get someone on call and tell them how amazing your stay is going. We suggest in just forgetting you have your phone and enjoy your time in nature and unplug. (FYI, We don’t have wifi in our cabins.)
How do we check-in and check-out?
This is simplest part. Its your house so you will get a code in your mail for the key box from which you will find a key to unlock the door. No uncomfortable small talk with the onsite help to get the room you want. Phew! What a relief! But if you do need assistance we will have someone on site to help out just in case. Check in is after 1pm and check out is 11am. (When you leave, please remember to lock the door and leave the key in the key box.)
Can i bring my pet?
We are working really hard to make our cabins dog friendly, so please keep in touch and subscribe to the newsletter. If you have any queries regarding if the cabins are pet friendly, drop us a line.
Are the cabins sanitized properly?
We are making sure that all the tiny homes are sanitized every time someone uses it. The linen is changed and so are the towels so you don’t have to worry about anything. We have hand sanitizers in all our homes if you need.
Can we start a camp fire?
There will be a campfire on the site for all the people staying on the given days. We encourage our guests to learn how to set up the campfire from our helpers on site.
Whats your cancellation policy?

How are the tiny homes secured?
The main entry has a key locking system. You will get the key code when you make a booking. All the windows are toughened glass windows. Please remember that you are responsible for your safety. Don’t be alarmed when you see a snake or bugs of various kind. (Its not a hotel, remember.)
Will there be other people around me?
All the campsites have other people staying as well. So you don’t have to worry about being super isolated. Though, the homes will located at a distance from the rest of the campsite to promote social distancing.
