Showers
BATHING EVERY FEW DAYS (IF YOU’RE LUCKY) IS SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH WHEN YOU ARE ON THAT DUSTY TRAIL. SOMETIMES YOU JUST NEED TO GRAB A NICE HOT SHOWER. OUR CONTINUOUS ON-DEMAND WATER HEATERS WILL MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PLENTY OF HOT WATER FOR A REFRESHING BREAK. WE WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH SOAP, SHAMPOO AND A FRESH CLEAN TOWEL.
Laundry
WE ALL LOVE MOTHER NATURE AND DON’T MIND A BIT OF DIRT ON OUR CLOTHES, BUT LET’S BE HONEST, IT’S REALLY NICE TO PUT ON FRESH CLEAN CLOTHES ONCE IN A WHILE. THROW THOSE PANTS, THAT CAN PROBABLY WALK THEMSELVES BY NOW, INTO ONE OF OUR TWO WASHING MACHINES AND LET THOSE MILES MELT OFF. WE CAN PROVIDE LAUNDRY DETERGENT AND PLENTY OF FRESH AIR TO LET THEM DRY IN THE CRISP MOUNTAIN AIR.
Camping
YOU MAY NEED A FEW NIGHTS REST BEFORE STARTING UP THE PCT. MAYBE YOU JUST ARRIVED AT THE 700 MILE MARK, OR JUST CAME OFF THE TRAIL AND ARE LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO SETUP YOUR TENT. WE HAVE FREE CAMPING AND WE ALSO HAVE A CABIN, YURTS AND TRAILERS FOR RENT.
