Spend a night in a tepee! (update: accepting reservations for the 2022 summer)

Normally reserved for our overnight camp staff, we are making our newest tepees available for visitors. These hand painted, 18 foot traditional style Lakota tepees include a floor cover, liner for privacy, and door flap. Outfitted with various futons and/or mattresses, pillows, and blankets, this lodge will be a cozy overnight experience!
