The Yurt is very well designed and has every special touch u need. Nestled in the forest with beautiful trees. It was quiet and gave us the reset we needed. We will definitely be back. ##### JoJo M. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mona S. 4 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is the best place we have ever stayed, ever!! It is so beautiful and peaceful and secluded and quiet and everything in and around the place was perfect. There were so many little things that added to the already exceptional yurt. We never desire to go to the same place twice. We plan on making this our special yearly retreat. Linda and Kerry are the kindest, loviest people we have ever had as hosts. The only problem was we didn’t stay long enough. Top ratings! ##### Mona S.
