When We're Feeling Weary, Let's Head to the Forest!

This review, by Bestie Wanderer, takes us on a journey to escape the ordinary. We'll be immersing ourselves in the wilderness, camping in authentic Native American teepees, hidden amidst the majestic mountains.

Imagine the thrill of outdoor adventures, the crackling fire, and the aroma of barbeque filling the air as we unwind with refreshing drinks. As night falls, we'll gaze upon the breathtaking mountain scenery, sharing stories and laughter under the starry sky.

Just 2 hours from Bangkok, this stylish country retreat offers a relaxing getaway at an affordable price.


Many people may be familiar with this place... Previously, it was called "Masi Camp" resort, but now the owner's children have taken over the management and are gradually renovating and improving various parts of the resort. Therefore, the name has been changed to "Big Joey Resort", which is the same name as "Big Joey Restaurant", one of the famous restaurants in Saraburi province and also a family business. We will take you on a tour in this review.

We opted for a "glamping" experience in one of the five country-style "yurts" available. Unlike the typical canvas yurts, these were sturdily constructed from concrete, offering superior protection from the elements. The interiors were comfortably air-conditioned and thoughtfully furnished:

  • King-size bed
  • Electrical outlets, refrigerator, TV, and free Wi-Fi
  • En-suite bathroom with hot water and a flush toilet

Let's take a look inside together.

The yurt is equipped with air conditioning, a spacious bed, a refrigerator, a television, and a water heater.



The bed is approximately 5 feet wide and comes with a comfortable pillow. However, we believe that two more pillows would be ideal, as we both enjoy sleeping with a lot of pillows.

The yurt's bathroom has a hot water system, so you don't have to worry about taking a shower during the cold season.

When visiting a cowboy-themed resort, don't forget to dress up and accessorize to match the atmosphere for adorable photos.

Don't worry if you don't have any cowboy-style props; the resort understands the needs of photography enthusiasts and offers props for sale and rent.

Big Joe Resort currently has only 5 tents. Four of these tents are located on the hill, while the remaining one is situated by the swimming pool.


We visited during June, the beginning of the rainy season. The trees were lush and green, and the nights were pleasantly cool. The resort informed us that the temperature drops significantly during the winter months, reaching single digits.

Sure, here is the translation:

It's time for dinner! We'll be having a BBQ Party in a private area. The prices are affordable, and the food is delicious. I highly recommend trying it! The highlight is the huge pork ribs, marinated in a secret recipe passed down through generations at the resort. It has a subtle herbal flavor that is truly amazing. You have to try it!

  • Small set: 399 baht

The resort offers a delicious barbecue set for guests and visitors alike. You don't need to be staying at the resort to enjoy a BBQ party. Everything is made with fresh, organic vegetables grown on-site, ensuring a safe and healthy dining experience.

Must-try! The BBQ pork ribs are a must-try. The secret recipe has been passed down from the resort. The ribs are well-marinated with herbs, the meat is tender, and the aroma of herbs is light. It is best served with fresh vegetable salad and mulberry juice. It's a perfect match!



You can grill the food yourself, or have the resort staff help you grill it.





The grilled pork ribs are absolutely delicious! I highly recommend trying them! They are marinated to perfection, with the flavors penetrating deep into the meat. Every bite is a delight. I don't usually eat pork ribs like this, but this dish from BIG JOEY Country Resort deserves a 5-star rating. I'm dying to get my hands on the marinade recipe! It's so good, you'll want to lick your fingers clean.


Enjoy a relaxing evening with delicious hot barbecue and a cool breeze all night long.

Before returning to Bangkok, we decided to try Big Joey Restaurant. The restaurant is located separately from the resort, about 5-10 minutes away, near the Thai-Danish dairy farm.

This restaurant serves southern Thai cuisine and steaks. It's important to note that every dish is truly delicious.






The first dish, "Steamed Egg with Shrimp Paste," may appear ordinary, but its flavor is anything but. The silky smooth steamed egg contrasts beautifully with the rich and savory shrimp paste. This is a must-try dish.




Big Joe's pork chili paste with fresh, homegrown organic vegetables.





Barbecued pork ribs, well-marinated, the meat is very tender and falls off the bone easily. Delicious.

Continuing on to the spaghetti with dried chili and bacon, the presentation was visually appealing, and the taste was as delicious as if it had been prepared by a Western chef. However, upon inquiring with the restaurant, I learned that the chefs are all Thai, and every dish is made using the secret recipes of the owner's mother, passed down through generations.



The next dish is Wagyu beef steak, served with black pepper sauce and grilled vegetables.




Let's return to Thai food. This dish is "Fried Egg with Crispy Pork Cracklings," which we both love very much. The egg is fluffy, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, sprinkled with crispy pork cracklings. It goes very well with chili sauce.



The meal concluded with a spicy and tangy yellow curry with pineapple. The dish was characterized by its prominent spiciness, balanced by the sweet and sour notes of pineapple. Served with steaming white rice, it delivered an authentic southern Thai culinary experience.



If you are passing through Saraburi, don't forget to stop by Big Joey restaurant. You are guaranteed to enjoy the delicious and affordable food.


Thank you to everyone who has followed me to this point.

Stay tuned for our next adventure together, #globetrottingbuddies. See you soon!
