Very good
Pros:

Love the location, it was quiet, remote and surrounded by greens. The drive in to Earthboat was scenic as well. The equipments for bbq cooking is well stocked.

Cons:

The check out was too early at 10am. Early check in or late check out will incur additional cost. The cold plunge area could be covered a little more for better privacy. The mini fridge is useless as it doesn’t cool your food. Bed was positioned in a weird angle and it wasn’t comfortable.

We had a truly memorable experience with the cabin, sauna, and dining outdoors. Make the most of these features of Earth
Pros:

Beautiful minimal architecture, thoughtfully designed cabin, cozy experience in the midst of nature. Waking up to the lake view seeing the light at sunrise.

Cons:

If you need any amenities beyond the basics provided at the cabin you’d need to drive out of the remote village. The sauna experience can be improved as it takes a long time to operate and prepare.

Superb
Pros:

It is a beautifull place in a perfect location. The house was clean and well equipped. It is a perfect place if you want to stay out of the big city.

Cons:

Upon arrival there was no internet connection which is required to make a self check-in. When i tried to contact the owner i got an answer from AI assistant. There is no 5g around this place so the check-in in the cold was something really anoying. The wifi came back on the second day so it was a random event i suppose. One more thing. The shiny plate with the QR code on the entrance is really beautifull. But it is almost impossible to scan the code cause its chromed and reflective. Please change it to something else. Doing check-in in th cold without the wifi and trying to scan the chromium plate.

Too remote and challenging for customer without a car
Pros:

Good interior design. Good camping location with nice view.

Cons:

The location is remote that it is really challenging or impossible to call a taxi or Uber. It is better for customer with a car. And terrible for customer without car

Pros:

Great design, great location, great sauna, great attention to detail

The lights inside the room could’ve been adjustable to be brighter and we would’ve appreciated a microwave but other than that everything was amazing!

Great glamping
Pros:

Self-check, there is no staff but very clear instructions also in English. The pond view was amazing and in the morning we could spot a Tanuki on the other side of the pond. Really beautiful room and surroundings, it feels like a very luxurious camping.
