Beautiful little getaway, with its own private waterfall only a 5 minute walk away. Hosts were very responsive and helpful, and even suggested some awesome activities in the area. The space was well kept and tidy, and the outhouses were even kinda cozy (if you can call an outhouse cozy!) My boyfriend and I hope to make this visit an annual thing. Thanks Sleepy Bear Retreat for a great stay.

We had a lovely time exploring the waterfalls in the nearby area, and the yurt had good amenities. However, our room was very dirty. We found spiderwebs all over the walls and behind our bed, and there were hairs all over our sheets (not from us!!), as well as we found a few bugs crawling in our bed as soon as we arrived. The amount of hairs and worm-looking bugs we found in our sheets were very off putting.
