ABOUT THIS SPACE
According to legend, Brigadoon is a village in the Scottish Highlands that has fallen under a magical spell. It must remain unchanged and removed from the world, except for one day every 100 years, when it briefly reappears. Like its namesake, “Brigadoon is a place that is idyllic, unaffected by time, or remote from reality”.
Inspired by the mythical tale, our Brigadoon is a place of sanctuary, beauty & heart, perfect for exploring the Puget Sound & Olympic Peninsula with endless walking trails in the National Forest. It is our pleasure to share it with you. We hope you find it as magical as we do. All the guests who come to Brigadoon are part of making it what it is. This is an oasis that supports and inspires imagination and creativity. We welcome artists, writers, seekers, musicians, dreamers, forest dwellers and all lovers of life!
THE YURT
The 24’ Yurt features a private entrance and dedicated gardens. It is a short walk to the ocean, a brief drive to town, a scenic ride to the Olympic Mountains and a day's journey to the farthest reaches of the West Coast of America.
The Yurt at Brigadoon is a perfect place to relax, breathe in the scents of the garden in the summer, enjoy the outdoor fireplace, meditate, read, journal, offer prayers and immerse yourself in self care.

GUEST ACCESS
The Yurt stands alone on the property. The luxuriously large bathroom offers an extra-long soaking tub with shower, and radiant heated floors to pamper your tired feet after a long day of hiking. There is a cozy lounge area on the covered deck leading into the yurt as well as seating amidst the abundant gardens and statuary on the property. The indoor kitchenette comes complete with microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and refrigerator. Provisions for outdoor rustic cooking are available on the covered front deck, along with a propane stove.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
We have one small dog named George who lives with us on the property. He is 9 years old and only wants affection. One of George’s magical talents is that he never barks. He is super well behaved & loves people.
We value the health of our guests as well as the environment. We use only natural, organic, unscented cleaning supplies and laundry detergent.
Brigadoon is a quiet place of relaxation, contemplation, and presence. This is a sanctuary space & not a home for partying. If your desire is to unwind with a small libation, please enjoy. However, this is not a space for intoxication or loud events. We hold this shared space as a nourishing home and getaway for ourselves and our guests. Out of respect for our neighbors and our home we request quiet hours from 8am to 8pm. Let the silence and bird songs invite you to the special serenity that is Brigadoon.
