Our stay at Under Canvas was pleasant, but the prevailing sentiment at our departure was that the experience was not worth the price. First, the good: the beds were very comfortable, bathroom clean and hot water plentiful, and the ambiance and camaraderie at the fire pits were fun. However, these positives could not outweigh the unfortunate location of the camp so near a three-lane 55 mph highway. This resulted in a lot of road noise at night, which was not communicated in advance (although train noise was, and there was that too.). The positives likewise could not erase several minor annoyances like sloppy cleaning of the pull out couch (used ear plugs and hair ties are an unwelcome sight), two barely charged LED lanterns, a malfunctioning white noise machine, and lax enforcement of quiet hours on our first night. These are minor points, but for the cost, one would expect better. Ultimately, Under Canvas Glacier seems to have an identity crisis: it’s “full service” one moment but a campsite the next. I think for its cost, the novelty of “glamping” wore off quickly.
