Take a step back in time to the 1800's when the American pioneers used wagons for everything from transporting large loads to moving families across the new world! While The Welcome Wagon is reminiscent of a much more primitive time in American history you will not have to go without modern day luxuries. Your wagon is equipped with central heat and air, a king size bed, a set of bunks, a wagon wheel table and chairs, a two door mini fridge/freezer, a convection microwave, a Keurig and luxury linens. We also provide guests with a starter supply of disposable plates, bowls, cups, and cutlery. The one feature that sets the Welcome Wagon apart from our other two wagons is the full bath located INSIDE the wagon. Thats right! Your wagon bathroom includes a full size shower, single sink and vanity, standard flush toilet. Shampoo, conditioner, body soap and hair dryer are included amenities. Outside we have also outfitted your campsite with a stone-ring fire pit surrounded by 4 Adirondack chairs and have also provided everything you need for roasting hot dogs, grilling sandwiches, or making s'mores over the open campfire. Your campsite is made complete with a picnic table, a charcoal grill and a complete set of cast iron cookware. Prefer a gas grill? We have that as well. Just head next door to the Ocoee Bath House Deck and Grill where you will find a gas grill, grilling utensils and additional seating looking out over the river.
