The tiny cabins accommodate 2 adults and 2 children maximum occupancy. The cabins have an 8ft carpeted sleeping loft. The Gavin cabin also comes with a twin sized pullout loveseat. Please bring everything you need for a amazing camping experience. Each cabin is generously spaced from the others for a pleasant heir of privacy. Tent sites are also spaced apart with your privacy in mind.
