Loved the location and the owner was super kind and helpful!
Cute yurt! Bed was comfortable, space heater was sufficient for warmth. Stairs to the yurt were a bit steeper than the photos show, but not bad at all. Would definitely stay again!
The cutest spot to stay in so close to Seward. It’s the perfect size for someone who is spending all day exploring the city. The host was so friendly and helpful and her dog was adorable!
It is a quaint spot to be near Seward and very comfortable bed. Host was quick to respond with any questions. The refrigerator was very helpful. Such a nice experience, you feel like you are all by yourself, very peaceful.
Exactly as advertised and exactly what we wanted. Kayce was very communicative as a host.

Cute spot at a good price!
Yurt is snuggled up in the woods, cozy for a couple or single traveller. Necessities such as electricity / heat readily available. Slept better than under a real roof.
Be ready for cold nights in the bathroom - still exceptionally clean and smell free for an outdoor option. Plus all the whimsical charms make it an experience!
Very cute place! The yurt is extremely cozy and Kayce was kind enough to even have the heater on for us for when we checked in since it was an overcast/rainy day. She provided us with snacks and water, there’s also some items there for in case you forgot anything like toothpaste, etc. there’s conveniently a hot plate with a pot/pan, some cooking utensils, and coffee/coffee maker. Beyond my expectations! We absolutely loved it here.
The host was amazing, she was sweet and very communicative. Her dog Ducky was super sweet too, we also enjoyed him when he gave us a short visit.The yurt was cute and comfortable. It had a hot plate inside with a pot and pan if we wanted to cook. We utilized the fire pit for our meals and enjoyed our short trip there. It’s a beautiful property, there are trees and birds singing all around. It was a perfect little escape!We will definitely be back if we find ourselves in Seward again!
What a sweet little yurt. We enjoyed our time there sitting by the campfire, playing with her pup. Host was very sweet, responsive to needs and friendly. We would definitely stay again.
