The Off-Grid Red Yurt in the woods
TRUE OFF-GRID WILDERNESS ADVENTURE - NO shower, NO WiFi, NO cell service, wildlife encounters guaranteed!
Welcome to Sleepy Bear Red Yurt!
Live an incredible, timeless, and off-grid experience in a little piece of nature near Golden, BC. Located in the middle of the woods, this pretty rustic yurt will transport you to a simple, warm, and authentic world.
Perfect For:
- Adventure seekers and nature lovers
- Digital detox enthusiasts
- Wildlife photography
- Couples seeking unique experiences
- Those who understand "off-grid" means OFF-GRID
IMPORTANT: This is a genuine off-grid experience - perfect for adventurous souls seeking digital detox and wildlife encounters. Not suitable for those expecting hotel amenities.
All around the accommodation, take a breath of fresh air between a breathtaking view of the mountains and the hypnotizing sound of the stream flowing a few meters away. The more adventurous will even be able to discover during an enchanted getaway, the three waterfalls which are an integral part of the scenery, just a few hundred meters away, to enjoy a very refreshing swim.
Experience a unique way of life, while reconnecting with nature. Consisting of a double bed, a wood-burning stove, a basic kitchen, and an ecological composting toilet, living in the woods may not be luxurious but has never been so pleasant and intoxicating.
Wildlife Welcome Committee: Expect daily visits from deer, raccoons, bears, pine martens, and yes, the occasional mouse indoors. This is their home - you're the guest!
What "Off-Grid" Really Means
- NO shower facilities - Use our pristine waterfalls and stream for washing (truly refreshing!)
- NO Limited water - 90L tank for cooking only - every drop counts
- NO Electricity - Solar power for basic lighting only
- NO WiFi or cell service - Complete digital detox zone
- NO Refrigerator - Cooler provided on arrival (bring ice).
- Wildlife encounters - Bears, deer, raccoons are your neighbors (bear safety essential!)
- Seasonal mosquitoes - Summer brings bugs! Come prepared with repellent
Bear Safety (NON-NEGOTIABLE):
- Never leave food, garbage, or pet food outside
- All scented items must be stored indoors
- Carry bear spray when exploring
Firewood: Provided for indoor stove only (bring your own for BBQ/campfire)
Wildlife: Mice may visit indoors (you're in the woods!) - part of the authentic experience.
There are no blinds; you will be awakened by the early morning light.
Not Suitable For:
- Those expecting hotel amenities
- Guests uncomfortable with wildlife
- Anyone needing reliable cell service
- Visitors wanting daily showers
PLEASE DO NOT LET YOUR DOG SLEEP ON THE BED.
Book only if you're genuinely excited about wilderness living with all its beautiful challenges!

There is a window in the yurt that requires repair, hot pads for handling a hot pot would be helpful, the bed needs an upgrade in comfort and the pillows should be retired and replaced. We did enjoy our 2 night stay.
