Today’s heat has doing something we didn’t think we were ready for! We’re definitely not ready for summer to end but we are looking forward to cooler mornings, golden evenings and campfires under the stars.

Early Fall is magical at the Butterfly Pods and we’re excited for what’s around the corner.

If you’re craving a little peace and quiet, we still have a few weekdays open from September-November. Last year we kept the pool open into early November and have improved our heating capacity even more.

Our website has our current availability and pricing. As always, comment or DM us with any questions.

Are you a summer person or are you counting down the days until Fall?

Read the full article to learn more about why and how we built the Butterfly Pods, our experience hosting guests and some of our guest reviews. Thoroughly researched, with some touching stories that we haven’t shared before.

What does off grid luxury mean to you?

For us, it’s being immersed in nature without sacrificing comfort.

It’s quality linens, slow coffee, a wood-fired soak under the stars, and long conversations around the fire. It’s thoughtful design, modern comforts, and time spent with the people you love.

It’s also knowing that your stay is powered by the sun, supplied by rainwater, and designed to tread a little lighter on the planet.

Because we believe luxury shouldn’t come at the expense of the places we escape to enjoy.

Just comfort, connection, and a closer relationship with nature.

When was the last time you felt completely connected to nature without giving up comfort?

All the sunshine, rainbows, butterflies and swims at the Butterfly Pods last summer. We had the most wonderful guests creating special memories in our off grid pool. Think lazy days with your loved ones surrounded by the beauty and peace of nature. The pool is open for 2026 and we’ve already seen some meaningful moments shared. Mild bachelorette celebrations, birthdays, family time and so much more to come!

Statistics say that the majority of guest stays have been booked by moms - sometimes with and many times without the kids. Some have even split their stays, a few nights just the moms with Dads and kids joining later.

We are so grateful for our own mothers and to all those who have chosen to bring their families and friends out for quality time at the Butterfly Pods 🦋❤️ Thank you to all the moms that dream of visiting the pods one day too. We wish you all a very happy Mother’s Day. Hopefully you’ve had a few moments of relaxation today ☀️

A moment for the loft bunk bedroom, magical for children and adults 💫 Without doubt the most memorable and curious room at the Butterfly Pods. When designing the property, our girls’ major requirement was a bunk room. We heavily debated the layout of the room to arrive at a compromise between function and fun 🤩 This way kids can take turns to sleep on the loft bunk and kids or adults can sleep on the full size bed below. Securing the bunk at the level of the third window allows for uninterrupted nature views for all 🌳

What do you think of the design? Anything you would do differently?
