Welcome to the "Gypsy Wagons" at Ravenwood Castle
| 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 or three children. There is an operable window at each level for air circulation, as well as two other operable windows. 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 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. Our rate of $45 per night Sunday - Thursday; and $55 per night weekends (Friday-Saturday together necessary), 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. The "Gypsy Wagons" - a fun camping experience! |
