Children
We adore children, but Elk Hollow Resort is designed for romance, honeymoons, and anniversaries, making it best suited for adults.
- Safari tents are not as soundproof as hard-walled yurts.
- We do not provide childproofing or cribs.
- We may accommodate older, well-behaved children upon request, especially when:
- All nearby accommodations are rented by the same family/group.
- The tent is more secluded.
