Welcome to Wildfern Grove, our charming, rustic yurt village and intentional community! Unwind in one of five hand painted Mongolian yurts nestled among 40 acres of forest with trails, wildlife, and nature to explore. Relax in our shared 7’ cedar hot tub and watch the sun set over our serene and picturesque property. Experience our sanctuary where we create a stunning, amusing, and calming environment for our visitors, friends and community members that is alive and thriving.
This listing is for our 18` Gaia Yurt which honors all life, Mother Earth and all her beings - plants, animals, funghi, and insects that call her home. You are invited to bask in the nature and beauty that surrounds you at The Grove while feeling the stable, nurturing power of Gaia beneath you.

Ground Rules at Wildfern Grove
QUIET HOURS- 10pm-8am please be respectful of our guests and residents
CHECK IN 3pm CHECK OUT 11am (please message if you would like to modify)
This is a SANCTUARY, NOT A PLACE TO PARTY. Many people come here for healing and a chance to get away from day to day life. We ask that you show respect to your fellow guests, the land, and the community that is supporting your stay. If someone is found to be behaving inappropriately they will be asked to leave.
NO SMOKING INSIDE, or open flames ever. Any smoking should take place at least 25 feet from any door. Cleansing a yurt after smoke has been inside is a huge deal and will result in a $750 fine.
DOGS ONLY for pets. While we love all of the furries and feathered friends, we can only allow a max of 2 dogs per yurt. There is a $25 pet fee and we ask that dogs not be left unattended on property, that they be leashed at all times when out of your yurt and all poop be picked up. If damage is caused during your stay, please notify management immediately.
ONLY TOILET PAPER in the Community Space Bathroom! NO TAMPONS ever please. We frequently have to do maintenance to our sub pump due to this and we lose the use of this accessible bathroom for all.
