Yurt Living

Our stay was perfect. The pictures you see online are exactly what to expect. Our host was probably one of the best we have ever experienced. We were kept up to date about what weather to expect and given suggestions of local restaurants and experiences to check out. The yurt was perfect. The stay was nothing but relaxing. The hot tub was so clean and well maintained. I feel like we can’t say enough about just how great our stay was. 10/10 would 100% recommend.

Quiet little getaway

It was a cute and quiet getaway. Most of the town is closed early in the week, so the campground was very quiet. We stayed Mon to Thurs. and it was a perfect peaceful visit. Exactly what we wanted. Nice walk along the tracks, did some hiking and enjoyed the beautiful area around us. They were super helpful with things to do in the area. The yurt was clean and everything we needed. We enjoyed our time there.

Almost Heaven

There’s a reason they say that about our state. We like to try new places often. This will go in the books as one of our favorite. The property was clean and cozy. It was a quick walk to the river. The shop had everything you’d need. We hope to come back!

Cozy Yurt with a great host

The yurt was cozy and exactly what I expected. The location was peaceful and close to a stream that i wish I went fishing on. The host was helpful and they followed through, they even put a bottle of champagne in there for me to surprise my partner. If you’re looking into a yurt or a cozy place for two. This is it!

Girls weekend

The Yurt was as clean as a yurt on the river could be. Only complaint I could have was it was cold when we got there but warmed up nicely once we figured out how to get the pellet stove lit. Other than that all was good! We would definitely come again.

Absolutely perfect

We had a fantastic experience. The yurt was so warm upon arrival and had everything we needed plus more. The hot tub was a bonus and the yurt was decorated in such a cute manner. I want to stay for a month !

LOVE!!

This was our first time staying in a Yurt and we absolutely loved it! The check-in was quick and easy, the yurt was well stocked and clean, the hot tub was very hot and clean. There is a window at the top which was awesome to watch lighting during a storm, but if you don’t want to wake up with the sun, then bring a sleep mask. We will definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Winter Escape

My husband and I stayed here in February and it was beautiful. We enjoyed the warm hot tub while we watched the snow fall around us. The place was very clean and we didn’t have to interact with anyone which was great because of Covid. It’s secluded but not too far from some delicious restaurants. Overall, I would recommend and hope we get a chance to return.

Amazing getaway

My husband and I went for a weekend trip for our 10 yr anniversary. Such a cute little yurt that made for the perfect escape for us. Not many people around in December and very cozy. Pellet stove kept in pretty warm. Catherine was great with communication and she even left a gift for us for our anniversary. So thoughtful and sweet. Definitely recommending this gem to friends amd family.
