First time with both of them. Renting a cabin instead of tents because I'm not trying to have my wife hate me the whole trip lol. Planning to do some easy hiking and maybe fishing if we can rent gear. Any good camping meals that aren't hot dogs? Want to impress them a little.
Nice choice with the cabin. We've done the full camping thing with three kids and it's chaos but the best kind. Bring some cards or board games for downtime and you'll have a trip they remember forever.
That cabin rental move is smart thinking haha. My wife would definitely lose it in a tent. Have fun out there and enjoy the fact that you're doing something memorable with both of them.
Cabin camping is the sweet spot honestly. Keep a good fire going, some snacks on hand, and let them run around during the day. Pro tip: let them help with simple tasks like gathering firewood and they'll feel like they're on an adventure.
Cabin is the smart move. Kids, mountains, no tent setup disasters... that's a solid plan. First camping trip with both of them will be a memory they talk about forever. What's your game plan for keeping them entertained?
The cabin upgrade is huge. You've got indoor backup if weather goes sideways, real beds, and way less setup stress. Your wife will appreciate that thinking.

Smart decision on the cabin. Camping with two kids plus wife equals way more variables than you want to manage with a tent situation. Plus everyone sleeps better in an actual bed.
