We had wanted to go for awhile and enjoyed it a lot. Super comfortable bed, lovely views and quiet property. It was extremely windy when we were there, so we didn’t get to make use of the fire pit, and the tent was quite loud at night because of the wind but nothing to be done about that! Love that it is pet friendly, our pup really enjoyed it. An accessibility warning, you do park your car in a lot and then walk to your tent, so just keep that in mind if you have trouble walking etc! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1EC780BBC8BD01FF809CDD2E309EE52A6E4DD8891672336056926.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/04C7AB283993636F376B18877BA343AFA985D9D31672336058099.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AEAE63BEA13D6292DE034B584BAA82DF35542F111672336062406.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### EMILY Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jordan 28 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Stunning place with a consistent vibe. Unplug, be present in nature, unbelievable views. We were the only guests at the location that night and everything was perfect. We cooked a small meal on the BBQ, looked up at the amazing night sky, made a fire in the wood stove because it got chilly out, used the electric blanket and watched the sunset. Took some photos, enjoyed the walk down to the river the next day. The staff at the park are so chill and helpful. Very relaced but also professional and organized. Will be coming back! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9927B933A3C44E3D3E39F7C49EB2E2CFD44B19E01735405492939.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/698585463C04AFB1E704727E65E5B6B2F919F7671735405485801.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85C101AE4DC46F3D821FBF6DD99191DCD46128D91735405492250.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E76A964402057149EB2991169C3CCFC6D3B318C01735405492435.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jordan Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ann 14 Jul 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities We had to leave the car in a parking lot…would have been better to be able to park closer to the tents. They could make the golf carts that they use to carry everyone’s luggage available for visitors to use to and from the tents ##### Ann Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jared 13 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Secluded and peaceful retreat. Walden Retreat was an excellent get away to enjoy peace, privacy, and a truly beautiful setting. The “tents” are really like small bungalows and every bit as comfortable as a hotel room would be with air conditioning, bathroom and kitchen. We enjoyed sitting on the veranda and drinking coffee or building a fire in the fire ring and sipping wine and watching the sunset. If you are planning to visit some of the wineries, it is very close to the one concentrated around Hye. But it is a 45 minute drive into Fredericksburg. So the seclusion has pros and cons. We really loved our stay and hope to return again soon. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AC452F1D1363CE844E9598A829EC13A6A35ACC171710303832357.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6B9F700C72B670534DEAD266E9026F8F2CB860A31710303831521.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9831D7418619B1C31FDE241C32C0149A339E5A6B1710303832944.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B9D801AE813910C5B8581B7378F7EBF2E5CDB51B1710303832477.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jared Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenee 18 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing experience! The staff was so friendly (we loved Kat!) and helpful. We felt like family from the minute we arrived. The grounds are gorgeous! We saw so much wildlife (various birds, deer, armadillos, etc), enjoyed laying in the hammock area, watched the sunset on our deck, layed and watched the stars from our tent. Just all around incredible experience. There is so much to do on the property you don’t need to leave unless you want to venture out. The gift shop is stocked with local items (and local beer!) The cabins have everything you need, I was skeptical of the AC in the tent but it worked GREAT. Cannot wait to go back in the fall when the river is higher. ##### Jenee Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynnette 18 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Lynnette Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 19 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trey 17 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Trey Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria 12 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1323EAD5CD4B7675637304115089211EF9443ED61739282247761.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8F21C23003F13FE4C397ABEF3CD5BB8B92892DEB1739282247092.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0D10C8C77B2A6061C28FD4DE87CC8FA8E705D00A1739282245790.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AEE5BF62A3C55F88108EB3EA0B06B7C046751ED71739282245080.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oscar 13 Jan 2025 ##### Oscar Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aida 1 Jan 2025 ##### Aida Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheryl 4 Dec 2024 ##### Sheryl Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Express Hereford by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hereford-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hereford.h1061709.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge by Wyndham Winchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Winchester-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Winchester.h9600.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Santa Clara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Clara-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Santa-Clara.h4313.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Crest Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/North-Falmouth-Hotels-Sea-Crest-Beach-Hotel.h25567.Hotel-Information) > > [The View Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kayenta-Hotels-The-View-Hotel.h59418009.Hotel-Information) > > [Bayshore Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Traverse-City-Hotels-Bayshore-Resort.h34264.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Aspen Select](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Aspen-Select.h12245240.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Coast-Hotel.h28645.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Price by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Price-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Price.h9253345.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Myrtle Beach -
