The space
With enough space to sleep 2 , this comfortable site is the perfect getaway for couples, friends or solo adventurers. And for those looking to make it a group retreat, our neighboring glampsite, Black Fox Den, can accommodate 2 more with just a short hike or drive away (1/8th mile).
The camp is fully equipped with an American-made, seasonally heated and air-conditioned canvas bell tent, a real queen-sized platform bed, and layers of comfortable bedding for a restful night's sleep. Relax on the deck in rocking chairs or enjoy a meal at the outdoor kitchen and dining area. Don't forget to take a swing or lounge in the 2-person hammock while gazing at the beautiful natural surroundings. And, of course, every campsite needs a fire-ring and outdoor kitchen with gas grill for an elevated outdoor dining experience.
The best part about Fern Dell is that all you need to pack is your sense of adventure! We provide everything you need for a comfortable stay, including cookware and a mini fridge. Just bring your personal hygiene items, clothes for layering, food, drink and a desire to immerse yourself in nature. So why wait?
