扎帳篷阿卡迪亞

This is our 3rd stay at an Under Canvas property and we are big fans! In fact, we already booked UC Yellowestone for May 2025 which is what makes this review a little dissappointing. The biggest takeaway, we stayed at UC Arcadia a week before the camp was closing for the season and the staff reflected that in their attitudes. While everyone was courteous and nice, it was apparent (through them even talking about how short-staffed they were and how some of them would not be returning after this season) that they had already moved on mentally. For example, when we stayed at UC Zion (best experience so far of all 3 properties) the staff advises on hiking routes for the kids, places to eat in town, how to be prepared for the day. At Aracadia, I inquired about a couple of hiking routes that I was considering and was tolde to Google how to get there. Also, you have to text them if you want your tent cleaned (that wasn't the case at Zion or Lake Powell) so our tent was dirty when we got back from a long day of hiking (mind you it's $579/night). We will stay in UC again but I think the main resolve is not to stay when they are a week from shuttting down as the staff is checked out mentally. BTW: Be ware of the kids tent option when it rains, the kids tent got completely soaked and we had to roll cots into the suite to make room for them.

Ein wirklich tolles Erlebnis in solch einem Zelt zu schlafen. Besonders der Abend war sehr gemütlich mit S‘mores am Lagerfeuer, leckerem Abendessen und all den tollen Brettspielen.

No vehicles allowed near tents. Have to park away from tent and can’t have food in tent so if you want a snack you have to walk quite a distance to car and staff has to bring yours luggage to rent in golf cart. Tent leaked all over while sleeping. Shower leaked and got water all over cabin floor. Everything was damp. Toilet paper fell apart from moisture.

They did not mention on their website that all tents do not have electricity and the lights are run by battery packs. Also, it was very cold and the only heat source was a small wood stove. You have to get up every two hours during the night to add firewood or the fire will go out. If that happens, you will get up in the morning to a cold tent. It rained while we were there and the path to out tent became very muddy. They did not do anything about it.

The texting option was very convenient. We checked out Monday morning at Bar Harbor and texted the number if there was an option to come and use the facility earlier than check in time. By 12 noon we got a text and says come and check in our tent was ready. Thank you for the hospitality!

Ridiculous price for a tent in the woods with no electricity, no breakfast or other meal included, and horrid coffee. This is an enormous scam. My bad for falling for it.
