Tent Cabins at Colter Bay Village are temporary summer cabins with two permanent log walls and two weatherproof canvas walls with a weatherproof canvas roof. Each private cabin offers an outdoor fire ring and picnic table, and indoor wood burning stove and lighting. Tent Cabins share a common log wall with an adjoining private cabin. Think of them as a deluxe tent – which means you still have to provide some of your own camping gear.

Please note, Tent Cabins do not provide any type of electrical outlet.
