Beautiful, peaceful, thoughtfully decorated and stocked. Our family (Dad, Mom, 10 year old daughter and 8 year old daughter) spent one magical night here on our trip to see caverns and the safari. The river, creek, rolling green land, and wildlife are the perfect setting, and the yurt is so comfortable. The bedding is luxurious!

Great place for W&L Graduation Week

We stayed here for our daughter's graduation and it was a wonderful respite from the busyness of activities. From the goat herd grazing the property to the stars in the clear night sky to the warm welcome by the property owners and the awesome outdoor pavilion, it was everything we needed and more! Highly recommend!

The Yurt is one of our favorite stays! The kitchen is well appointed and the yurt was very comfortable. The baked goods were awesome! The beef is fantastic and was a great quick meal on the grill at the Yurt. The hike up to watch the sunset was fun. A fantastic stay for our family!

Our stay was truly incredible. The Yurt was super unique and extraordinarily comfortable. From the cleanliness of the entire place, the super comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen and many special touches, everything exceeded our expectations. The hosts April and Zach are super friendly and wonderfully communicative. If you stay hear be sure to order the home baked scones, sour dough bread and freshly laid eggs. April bakes them fresh and they were absolutely delicious. The surrounding area offers several really cool things to do. We hiked to Natural Bridge(spectacular), visited VMI and sat on the deck at Devils Backbone Brewery for lunch and a beer overlooking the Blue Ridge mountains. We look forward to returning again.

Incredible unique stay!

Probably the most unique place my family has ever stayed! The Stillhouse Farm Yurt was inviting and welcoming and had all the basic essentials needed for a family. The kids loved the loft area, and there were plenty of beds for our family of 7. The outdoor space and fireplace was a hit. And the baked goods are absolutely delicious. A must-try! Zach and April are wonderful hosts, quick to respond and very accommodating. Looking forward to coming back again!
