Room for the whole gang, eight semi-private bunk rooms (separated by privacy curtains) keep things communal while offering a little personal space: six rooms with twin beds, two rooms with full beds, sleeps 16-20 guests comfortably, each bunk has a comfortable mattress and protector, and guests can bring their own bedding or rent a full bedding set for $20 per bed.
Common Areas –
Cozy spaces to gather & relax at the heart of The Bunkhouse, a central hallway divides the space into two main areas: A huge dining table (seats 16) for family-style meals, game nights, and laughter-filled feasts, a plush leather couch lounge surrounding a wood-burning fireplace—perfect for cozy nights, long talks, and warming up after a day of outdoor fun. A covered patio with additional seating, so you can take the party outside and enjoy meals in the fresh mountain air.

The fully stocked country kitchen has everything you need to fuel your adventures: electric stove, oven, full-size refrigerator & freezer, microwave, coffee maker, toaster & blender, dishes & cookware for 20 extra seating for four for those early risers who need their coffee before anyone else wakes up.
Bathrooms & Showers –
No roughin’ it here with plenty of space for everyone to clean up, The Bunkhouse features: four private showers, two double-sink vanity rooms, two private toilets, fresh towels provided.
