In camp we have the Playa Mart with all the items you forgot like sun glasses, tooth paste, etc. and shade lounge for relaxation and free Wifi. Open from 12 noon to 5:00 pm and more… Refresh with a cold water, a chance to cool off in the mist and check email with loved ones who could not make the Playa.

I Miss My Dog Cafe is a community cafe uniting people over our love of all animals.

Sit and stay for dog-themed events or to share stories (AND PICS) of your furry friends.
We host hot dog parties, serving traditional and vegan options. Our day starts bright and early with a sunrise coffee, tea, and kibble cereal bar.

We seek out the weary, the overheated and the disconnected to offer our signature Icy Hands experience. The instantaneous sense of relief, joy and connection turns recipients into PARTICIPANTS and makes them part of a larger whole. Icy Hands epitomizes “the gift that keeps on giving” by coaching recipients through providing the experience to others. Hands are cooled to near freezing temperatures by means of a simple block of ice, then with full positive consent of the recipient, those hands are placed upon the neck and jaw, providing an immediate sense of cool, calm and connection.
Block of Ice: $5. Memories, endorphins, friendship and dopamine rush: PRICELESS.
