Ben & Kayla
Ben and Kayla purchased Golden Pines in September 2017, having worked as geologists in Texas for almost a decade (both have Masters Degrees in Geology). They are passionate about hospitality and passionate about rocks, and they love to talk about either to anyone who is interested! Please say "Hi" if you see them around the park!
From the campground, Kayla also still works supporting a non-profit in her home town, The Wyman Center, which is celebrating it’s 125th anniversary this year!
Fun Facts: Ben is an 11-year military veteran, and Kayla is a talented player of the viola.
Tatonka
Tatonka is an eleven year-old sheepdog mix who is full of energy and love! He is perhaps our most enthusiastic host, and you'll often find him hanging out in the park office or out begging for treats. Tatonka can't wait to meet you during your next visit at Golden Pines!
Fun Facts: Tatonka loves kids and will also answer to the name "Taco".
