We loved our stay at the tipi! It was laid out nicely and our family of 4 was very comfortable. The accommodations were so cute, with Native American decorations that weren't over the top! The bed felt like heaven!! It rained and was windy but we were comfy and dry inside! The kitchen is small, but we weren't in the tipi much, we were out and about!

Absolutely amazing place to stay. Love the view. The property was spotless clean. All that you need for a couple day stay. We had severe thunderstorms during our stay and the sound of the rain lulled us to sleep. We felt completely safe. Definitely an experience. Would highly recommend.

Such a wonderful and unique place to stay! Super cute, very clean and comfortable. It got down below freezing overnight but the pellet stove kept us toasty warm and felt like sleeping by the fireplace. Mesa Verde was closed due to the government shutdown but after spending a week touring the Utah parks we were happy to have some relaxing downtime and this was the perfect place for it. Definitely the most comfortable bed ever!

Very nice!

A unique experience...glamping at it's best! The kids thought staying in a tipi was so fun! My husband and I appreciated the thought behind desiging and building a modernized tipi and were impressed with the very luxurious shower!

Serenity Stays Mesa Verde Tipi was wonderful! We traveled most of the day and had limited time at the tipi, but it was well worth the stay! Wish we had multiple nights to experience the tipi. Great space for 4, perfect amenities, and extra on site fun activities. Hosts are very thoughtful with the extras included with the tipi rental. 5 stars!

One of a kind

I haven't seen stars like that since I was a kid on the farm. The place is so nice you forget you're in a teepee. Saw a family of deer moments after arriving and archery and axe throwing was a great way to stretch our legs after a long drive.

Unique Experience

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the teepee! It was very clean and the hosts have everything on hand that you could possibly need. Our boys loved the bow and arrows and thought the stay was so cool! The hosts were super responsive. Book the teepee! You’ll be glad you did!

Awesome tipi!

What a great place to stay! The tipi was so beautiful! It was comfy and decorated beautifully! The kitchen and bathroom were nicely equipped with thoughtful details, and the beds were comfy! The view from the firepit is so amazing! The wind was howling last night, but the pellet stove and space heater kept us cozy! Everything was so lovely! My kids just loved the tipi experience and wanted to say thank you for the arrowhead! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Thank you so much Jennifer, we are so happy you guys had a great time! Nothing makes us more satisfied. We appreciate you staying with us and hope you bring the kiddos back for some more fun! Sorry about the wind, it usually subsides in April but seems to have dragged on a little longer this year!

Teepee Oasis

Loved this modern day teepee so much, perfect little getaway and close to many attractions including Mesa Verde National Park. The information book provided all information needed. The propane fire pit and pre-made individual smores’ packs left in the fridge along with the beautiful view of Mesa Verde Mountain were a perfect ending to our day. Thank you!

Tipi Trip

On the surface it would appear rustic, but that is not the case. The comforts included with this Tipi are wonderful. This is glamping at its best with the full kitchen and beautiful bathroom. It was wonderful to sit out and enjoy the dark night sky. Gary and Rachel provided pellets for the wood stove which was necessary for the chilly nights. Gary also responded to any question I had within minutes. Great trip!

Cozy and Unique

I mean come on....not many can say that they stayed in a tipi! Very cute! Loved all the modern amenities. The shower is the best (with exception of bugs that seemed to be attracted to the white flooring). The AC was a must as it was 100+ degrees. It's cozy and unique -- we loved it. The host is very gracious and helpful. My only addition might be a squeegee for the shower walls and floor and perhaps a couple of board games. We loved it and recommend it!

My husband and I stayed for a week in September and we loved it. It was clean and had all the essentials we needed for our stay. There were a couple of days where there were strong storms that came through, but the tipi was sturdy and there were no issues. The view of the mountains was beautiful and we enjoyed the fire pit, weather permitting. Others have mentioned noise from the highway, but it didn't bother my husband or I, but it was nice to have ear plugs if we needed them. Overall, 100% recommended and we would stay in a heart beat if we're ever in the area again.

Great view and stay

We absolutely loved our stay at this property. I wish we would have planned our travel to arrive earlier so we could have enjoyed the axe throwing and firepit. I've got all kinds of family asking for where we found this place and that want to stay here, so you should get some future business. Very clean and cozy. Loved everything about it.

Luxury tipi

Our stay was excellent. They spared no expense on this awesome, one of a kind tipi. It was very private, clean and bc everything we could have needed. We loved the fire pit for watching the sunset. It was also to hear the geese fly over in the morning and the sunlight coming thru the tipi was perfection. Thank you to the Randall’s for this special spot.

Close to perfect

Tipi is even better in person. Super clean, responsive hosts, beautiful location. The shower and bed were divine at the end of a long day. The road is loud—ear plugs are provided. A white noise machine made it near unnoticeable.

This property is simply amazing! They thought of every detail in the teepee, the bed and shower are amazing! Having tv and running water after camping for 2 nights was awesome! Wish we got to spend another night here because it’s that awesome! We will definitely be back very soon!
