Alpenglow Luxury Camping is perfect for a party of two, with tents that accommodate a pair comfortably. Upon request we can accommodate up to three people in a Mountain View tent with an additional charge of $30 for the third person.
Our traditional-style canvas tents are set on a permanent cedar floor with an 8′ covered porch, and include plenty of blankets and a comforter to keep you cozy at night. Two Adirondack chairs allow you to enjoy the spacious deck and beautiful views of the surrounding area.
Our tents do not have electricity, but you are welcome to charge electronics in our common area, just a short walk down the path from your tent. In addition to our covered common area, this area includes a lush green lawn and campfire area. Nestled in nearby trees are the hot showers and cedar hot tub with great views of the nearby peaks.
Our cute and tidy outhouse is just a short walk from the tent. Flushing toilets are also available for use just two minutes up the path.
