Our stay at the camping was an unforgettable experience, I feel I've come away with lifelong connections. Serioshka and her three lovely pups welcomed us into their space and made us feel right at home. The jobs are very fair and enjoyable, and gardening days with Pancho are an excellent time to learn and develop your language skills. We were shown a couple things in the art studio and Serioshka sent us a few books and videos personally picked out to inspire us and our art styles. The hardest part was leaving the dogs, I did shed a tear or two on the bus out of town!

From the moment I stepped into the camping I welcomed both by serioshka and her lovely dogs. Jose, Camilla and Renata (the dogs in questions) are treasures. Each have wonderful personalities and will demand nothing but cuddles. The workload is fair with regular jobs and added chores. The facilities are a little barebones but everything needed to exist comfortably is provided. Serioshka is a great host who will do everything she can to make you feel cared for and welcome.

I spent 2 weeks at this beautiful site and it wasn't enough time! I would recommend that anyone who goes here stays for longer so you can not only really get into the grove of your chores, but experience Tepoztlàn fully. I spent 12 days by self at the site doing chores and I felt completely safe and supported. Serioshka was very clear about my roles and responsibilities and was always available to reach if I had any questions. Pancho the gardener comes twice a week, he is extremely knowledgeable, patient and kind. He will teach you alot. The dogs are amazing, and it truly was amazing ❤️

Had a lovely peaceful month staying here. The tasks were interesting and challenging but in a good way, pushing you outside your comfort zone. You feel as though the work you're doing is genuinely improving the place for future guests and volunteers. The hardest task will be leaving the dogs! It has been a privilege living with them and they are incredibly sweet and loving. Serioshka was an incredibly nice host who makes you feel welcome and well valued. Pancho the gardener is an amazing teacher! Highly recommend!!!

Spending a month here, right on the edge of the National Park, has been an unforgettable experience. The work is engaging and challenges you in the best way, helping you grow while making a real difference for future guests and volunteers. Looking after three beautiful dogs was a joy! Serioshka is a welcoming and thoughtful host who ensures everyone feels appreciated. Pancho (the gardener) was an expert teacher, always taking the time to explain his processes with patience and care. If you're thinking about staying at the camping, don't hesitate!

Idris is a great and enthusiastic volunteer, eager to learn and a hard worker. We had very good conversations. He and ruby were very helpful and never complaint. We had good communication and i hope they come back sometime soon.

My friend and I stayed for two weeks and had a lovely experience. Through staying with Serioshka, we were able to get a non-touristy experience in Tepoztlán while learning new skills (for example, constructing a fence out of bamboo or creating molds out of cement and manure). The place itself is idyllic and peaceful, and it was great to connect with nature and the outdoors. Serioshka was responsive and flexible, which made our stay all the better.

This was such a wonderful experience I am so grateful that Serioshka hosted my friend and me at her art workshop. I feel that I learned so much and I really enjoyed the work I did. I felt really connected to Mother Earth- the view of the surrounding mountains from the camping was so breathtaking and the fact that we could just pick produce from the garden to consume was lovely. I loved the three dogs who stayed at the art workshop with us and still have a soft spot for Serioshka's other three dogs who came to visit! I also learned so much from Pancho who is an incredible teacher. Thank you Serioshka!

Serioshka is a wonderful, caring and warm-hearted person. I felt welcome from the beginning on. It was my first stop of my travels and it helped me grow personally and improve my Spanish, too. I loved having the dogs around and learning more about gardening. I am totally inspired and will keep many ideas in mind for the rest of my trip and will take them back home. I am very thankful for my time.

My stay at the camping was lovely!! I worked with Serioshka and Pancho the gardener on the property during the days and learnt so much, and then had the place to myself (plus the dogs) the rest of the time, & it's just a short (steep) walk into town. Serioshka told me before I arrived that the cabins were being rented by guests one night of my stay, so I stayed in a hostel that night (which was totally my choice as she made other comfortable sleeping arrangements for me but I was keen to socialise in a hostel). Serioshka was super communicative and accommodating & I would love to come back one day!

This was our first experience here in Mexico, and we are very grateful for the stunning place and the nice host. Serioshka is a very strong and caring person, with her and the lovable dogs we found an amazing family! Serioshka with her passion for her garden is teaching us a lot of new things about nature. We have found a person with whom we will always stay in touch. (She is also a great artist!) We suggest to everyone to live this experience.
