Ravenwood
Castle Camping - Gypsy Wagons
Be prepared for a truly
unique family camping adventure!
If
you like to camp in a tent, you'll really love the comforts
of our Gypsy Wagons! They're authentic
reproductions in size and interior appointments based on
actual research and photographs of 19th century wagons in
Britain. (The genuine wagons did not have electricity like
ours do, however!) And ours are stationary, nestled in a
little wooded glade. Gypsy women took great pride in their
little homes on wheels, and the wagons were painted in
bright colors with stenciling and decorative wood trims
inside and out.
We've copied the
sleeping arrangements from Irish wagons with double-decker
beds, (ours have two queen-size Coleman mattresses), which
can sleep two adults and two children. There is an
operable window at each level for air circulation, as well
as two other operable windows.
Rate is based upon two adults. There is a $15.00 charge for each extra person.
Maximum occupancy is 2 adults and two children.
Our wagons also
include a ceiling fan/light, a small refrigerator, microwave
oven (we do not allow open flame cooking in our woods),
several other outlets and lights including a double reading
light over one bed, a small food preparation area, three
cupboards, hooks for hanging clothes, a mirror, a small
table with two chairs, a door
that
locks, a front porch with two more chairs and a picnic
table.
There is a "path to
the bath" in true 19th century fashion. The path is lighted
at night and the "bath" has a clean porta-jon and shower
facilities, (one each for men and women), with lavatories
and an outside faucet for filling water containers.
We provide water and ice in your
containers. You are welcome to reserve dinner at the Castle,
and lunch is also available Thursday through Sunday from May
through mid-November.
