Campfire Stories & Smores Fixins’: Your Guide to the Perfect Night at Flora’s Retreats

The Art of Doing Absolutely Nothing (Perfectly)

Let’s be honest—you could roast another sad hot dog over a flickering flame, battling smoke in your eyes while your marshmallow bursts into flames.

Or... you could let Flora’s handle the details while you master the fine art of fireside lounging.

At Flora’s Retreats, we’ve elevated campfire culture to an experience—complete with:

✔ Gourmet s’mores kits (dark chocolate + sea salt caramel, anyone?)

✔ Pre-stacked firewood that actually lights on the first try

✔ Firestarters made by local scouts (no gasoline required)

✔ Cozy blankets for when the mountain air nips
