Great place to stay!
We had a great time! Our host was very responsive and helpful! If you have bad knees, the bathtub is a little tricky, When it’s warm, the outdoor shower is fabulous! I would definitely stay here again!

Great stay for our Big Bend visit
We booked a couple nights here for an extended weekend trip to Big Basin national park. Being a little over halfway between our arrival airport and the park the location worked out well for our needs. First time 'glamping' and although i was a little unsure of what to expect the place was great and was well worth the stay. It ended up being similar in size to many hotel rooms we have stayed and had a bathroom, shower/tub, kitchen facilities, refrigerator, and most importantly for this weekend ample heading. The nights got down into the teens but we were just fine. Would definitely recommend and really enjoyed our weekend.

Outstanding stay
From the very moment I clicked confirm the stay, the communication from the property owner was spot on. She gave us detailed instructions on how to get to the property and even gave us some excellent advice on local restaurants and events. Very clean and well maintained property. The Yurt was so comfortable with no detail overlooked. The little things like the art work and speciality coffee to the very comfortable furniture was spot on. I am very security minded, and I had no worries staying here. We felt very safe. I highly recommend you stay here and not at a hotel.

Yurt review
The yurt and amenities in it were perfect. Communication with the manager was easy and pleasant. The door had some issue with the lock and the neighborhood dogs like to bark a lot but that can’t be fixed. We would recommend this place to stay
