Great little getaway
Took my son for a little overnight trip, and it did NOT disappoint. He loved every moment of getting to stay on a bus. We will definitely do this again in the future!

Unique place to stay
Nice clean “cabin”. Wasn’t as private/remote as pictures appeared but with the time of year, the other cabins right next door seemed empty so there wasn’t a lot of activity right around us. Nice unique place to stay. We really enjoyed our time.

The skoolie was the best! Tad bit on the cold side when we stayed, but a nice fire and warm inside.
We couldn't have picked a perfect place as the skoolie! Memories were made and that's all we could have asked for! Thanks Emily for all that you do to give people the perfect outdoor experience...with a little glamping.

Our family had a lovely time on the skoolie. It rained the first night, but we just put on our rain coats and had a fire anyways. The wood was nice and seasoned. The skoolie was actually better than pictures! The second day and night we had a blast. Played baggo, played some games that were in the bus, and of course had Santa. Started the fire in the morning and had it all day and night. The neighbors are literally right next door on both sides. So just a little FYI. I think one actually lives there, but they have put a little fence up in between that one. The other one is another rental, but I think it was to cold for them to wonder around. So we were the only ones around. Just us and the pups. Definitely would go again!!

Principals on the bus
We were their for only ten minutes and two huge deer came up wagging their tails like dogs. It was quite and very peaceful. We enjoyed the outdoor space with the pleasant temperatures. The bus contained everything we needed including tv and Wi-Fi.

Loved Schoolie
Very unique experience. Directions were a little difficult but we weren't sure which way to go out of Mt View as we were not familiar with where Leslie was. Glad we stayed and would stay again.

Quaint relaxation - did not want to leave! We will be back by God’s mercy and grace!
I loved the email with all the things to do before we arrived! It was so relaxing! Private area! Very neat way to spend the 50th birthday. The host was very accommodating. Everything was just as listed! There were no surprises. No problems with the coolie schoolie.
