It feels very large and spacious inside. The Macaw Yurt features a comfortable queen size bed, multiple soft aloe vera pillows, organic cotton sheets and bedding, and a full size pull out sofa bed. We love snacks and amenities as much as anyone, so we've put in an electric kettle, a retro microwave, mini fridge with a large freezer, local coffee from Austin, boutique assortment of tea, 2 liters of our well water, and some snacks. We have our A/C + a fan pumping during the summer months, and the portable heater + heated blankets cranking in the winter, so you'll feel comfortable and right at home. Please note, we have a 2-night minimum. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker -

The bed was super comfortable. It was nice and quite a short walk to the lake. The only unfortunate thing is I guess they haven’t received much rain there so the lake was pretty low other than that you’re close to a lot of things Check it out do something different for once don’t stay in a typical hotel. ##### Zack H.
