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.
