Cozy stay!

We stayed here just one night with our small dogs and it was great. We were on a road trip and this yurt was comfortable, cozy, and squeaky clean! Exactly what you need at the end of a long day. We arrived after dark, but the host gave us clear directions with photos, and we had no trouble checking in. If we're ever out this way again we'd love to come back!

The little hot tub is the best part. Overlooking the river. A cold water hose to regulate the temperature would be really helpful though!

One of the pictures in the listing made it look like the river was just outside the door, but it was a short walk down a descent path to get there. We had an incredible time and wish we could have stayed longer.

Great retreat, with extras

Amazing large yurt, above the river. Clean, comfortable, even xtra coffee and popcorn. Beautiful, clean bathroom just steps from the yurt. Outside tub stays warm a very long time. Very quiet, except for the sounds of nature. Owner's cat? was very lovable and friendly and made herself at home, which was a joy for me.

Wonderful getaway!

My wife and I spent a night at the yurt and had a wonderful stay. We were fortunate to receive an early check in and spent most of the afternoon and evening enjoying the property and the nature surrounding it. Excellent bird watching- from the chairs outside the yurt, we saw hawks, pelicans, cormorants, hummingbirds, quails and more! It was clean, comfortable, well appointed and private. We came in the middle of summer and the AC units kept us cool without any issues. It was too warm to try out the hot tub, but we hope to visit again so that we can! Many thanks to Jen who was hosting during our visit!
