Cute little bus. We had a great time and my 6 year old loved visiting the animals. Was a little tricky with the little bathroom but just make it more of an adventure. Also enjoyed a waterpark and drive in theater near by.

Nice and quiet and way off the road, you’re on a farm with animals, yet it wasn’t noisy at all, they would greet me every morning at the fence to say hi, lol.The rooftop A/C drowns out any noises around the area, we slept great throughout the nights there. Owners were super responsive and helpful, we were there to look into moving into the area and take in nature, everything was great.

A unique experience on the bus and beautifully decorated. A nice outdoor seating area overlooking the cotton fields with views of gorgeous sunsets. The hosts were most accommodating to let us love on their farm animals and answered all one million questions we had.

Bus Glamping

My little family had a good time staying at Skoolie Glamping. My 3 year old enjoyed the baby goats! The owners are kind and love showing you around the property. We went for a small weekend getaway, we spent most of the day at Little River Falls and swam in Weiss Lake.

Great little gem

We were there to visit friends and our granddaughter came with us. We enjoyed the scavenger hunt and getting to see all the animals. The hosts were very friendly and attentive to make sure we didn't need anything. This place was very quiet and peaceful with lots to do in the area. I would highly recommend if you are looking to stay in something different than motels.
