About this property

This is an off grid property with total isolation in a hidden canyon. The yurt is on 160 acres of private ground surrounded on all sides by the Sawtooth national forest. A creek runs through the middle. You will have to chop wood, use an outhouse and get by without any chance of human assistance. For some, this is paradise. For others this is the opposite. Access to the property requires some effort. In the summer access across the private forest track can be had by horse, mountain bike, truck or ATV. In the winter, it's a sled and back country ski paradise. Detailed directions and instructions are available for discussion before you commit.

Amazing backpacking adventure

Aaron’s yurt was a great new adventure for us and our teen kids! Beautiful secluded area and the yurt is comfortable w the basics needed for cooking & even a grill. Yet it’s rustic enough that you need to chop wood, get water and trek to the outhouse- so perfect adventure for the Outdoorsy!! The hot tub was amazing- did take a little longer than expected to heat- so start early. Once we learned to feed the fire often and the ice melted on the bottom is was toasty hot and such a fun experience!! The yurt was about 4 miles in from car to doorstep- pretty good hike up in the snow- but easy hike out downhill! Beautiful panoramic views too! Would definitely recommend!!

Weekend Getaway

The Yurt is a beautiful, private and peaceful place to stay and we wished we could have stayed a few more days to enjoy it. Very clean and well stocked with everything you would need. The solar power was and added bonus. The property is exactly as described. Aaron was an amazing host and very responsive to any questions we had. We used the side by side to get to the property and we will definitely be back.

Peaceful and private

This yurt is in such a beautiful place. Directions were detailed and specific, creek is lovely, and solar power is a great addition. Private hideaway for those who are willing and able to navigate the dirt road in. Would certainly return!
