Mystic Valley
September 4th, 2007 Posted in Mystic Valley, Experience-Tipi/TeepeeMystic Valley offers a variety of overnight experiences, from rustic to comfortable, from cozy cabins to remote campsites, bunkhouses or tepees. Accommodations are simple and because we are a working community and not a luxury resort our guests, visitors and clients are expected to do their own housekeeping. Cabins and tepees will be tidy when you arrive. Beds will be made, however extra sleeping accommodations, such as hide-a-beds or loft mats will be made up by the guest

School House 
This old fashioned one room school building is our pride and joy. It is our multipurpose building. The community events location. It can be used for every thing from classes to dances.

Tepees The tepee makes it possible 
to experience on a daily basis what a nomadic culture experienced hundreds of years ago. Living in a Native American Tepee provided a passageway back through time that allows us to actually experience some of the aspects of this unique culture.
Splitting wood, stacking wood, tending fire, warming water, cooking, cleaning, arranging. You begin to realize that you are one with “the Great Spirit that moves all things”.
With a warm fire glowing in the middle of the tepee, dancing patterns emerge on the tepee wall, lending themselves to the relaxing atmosphere. You relax and allow yourself to connect with that inner silence. Relaxed and energized. You are at peace.
