For this year’s Valentine’s Day, I surprised my boyfriend with a glamping experience at Ultrawinds Mountain Resort.

In turn, he reciprocated my gesture by treating us to Ultrawinds’ Valentine’s dinner buffet. The food was sooo good that we kept getting seconds. I’ll talk more about this in a separate post.

Right after our dinner date, we retreated back to the campsite.
Thankfully, we got a free golf cart ride so we didn’t have to walk all the way from the restaurant.

It was exceptionally quiet when we got there that you could hear a pin drop.

The cool evening air was constantly blowing across the grounds.
So for some warmth, we requested to build a campfire. Their staff brought in a ginormous fire pan, some firewood and a box of matches to start the fire. They also brought a handheld LED light for us to use so we can still have some illumination even after the campfire goes out. Great service! 🙂

The campfire brought joy and new life to the cold, dark night. We made ourselves a few S’mores before hitting the sack.

I woke up early the next day when the bright morning sunlight warmed my side of the tent. I just had to enjoy the spectacular view before my morning shower.

For our accommodation, we had to walk a flight of stairs in order to use their communal shower and toilet facilities. Be warned: there are no heaters so gird your loins for the icy morning showers.

We made our own breakfast using the outdoor cookware we borrowed from our friends – Elai of PS 95:11 and Porsche of THEYANGONE.

There’s the manbear ready to devour his brunch. Hehe. 🙂

I have to be honest though… I was disappointed at first because, once again, I fell victim to another batch of artistically rendered images. The interior of the tent and the campsite didn’t look exactly like what was posted on their website. But once I got past that, it wasn’t so bad after all.
We had such an awesome time that didn’t even matter anymore.
For a truly memorable family get together, romantic rendezvous or company outing, I recommend glamping at Ultrawinds Mountain Resort. It’s a refreshing outdoor experience that everyone should try!
