About this property

Our cozy, private, rustic mountain yurt is a 30’ foot space located in an upper field tucked into a wooded hillside. Views facing east are great for watching the sunrise and a kitchen and outhouse mean you’ve got everything you need to get out of town for a few days.* The location provides a serene, intimate getaway for couples, artists or anyone looking for a bit of mindful downtime and introspection. The yurt is insulated and can be heated by a wood stove.
* Solar shower available upon request

The space

Surrounding fields are available for tent camping should you want to host a larger event and use the yurt for its kitchen and gathering space (the furniture can be removed). The yurt and its verdant surroundings are great for day-long wellness retreats, sound baths, yoga workshops, art classes and more. A recently renovated barn is also available to rent for events, and package deals with the yurt, catering and/or floral services are available.

A fully equipped, indoor kitchen is located just a few feet outside the yurt. A drop-toilet outhouse is also nearby.

Farm tours and floral workshops available with notice and availability.

The yurt has a queen-sized bed, twin bunk beds, a dresser, two night tables, and two couches and the kitchen has a breakfast table with four chairs. Linens included.

Guest access

During snowy winter months the yurt can only be accessed by all wheel drive vehicles, though parking at barn is approx 100 yards away. Hiking and biking trails are just outside yurt entry ramp.
Other things to note

This is a working farm so please plan accordingly!

Interesting

The Yurt is cool. Expect to be camping, It is just camping in a lifted tent. mouse traps were out and there wasn't enough kindling and the wood that was left for us was under a plastic cover but the wood was on the wet ground and the condensation from the ground and the plastic on the top made all the wood wet and hard to burn so we were glad we stoped for "dry" wood. The out house roof was coming off and was a far walk from the yurt. You have to hook up the hoses for water yourself. The ramp to the yurt was poorly built and i fell pretty hard and smacked my head. The "shower" has no walls and to have to bathe naked on a working farm is meh. If no one was there the shower would have been cool. but with people out and about it was weird. This might be a better expierence for a night or two in the summer but defiantly not in winter / spring. the mud tracks made it extremely difficult to drive up and down to the yurt as well and low key thought I was going to rip off my exhaust and im at stock height. Loved the setting and the people however it is not as advertised and people thinking about going to the Yurt should ask ALOT more questions if going here.

Not the best place

This place was a little bit misleading. They really need more pictures and need to update pictures. We stayed Nov 10 to Nov 12, 2023 which is during the colder months. It would have been a lot better if the wood pile was closer to the yurt. And we noticed a lot of lady bugs and flys inside the yurt, mainly they stayed away from you but still. Overall if you are looking for a get away place, this is not it.

Cozy Yurt and Kitchen!!

I really loved staying in the yurt. There is no full bathroom, just the outhouse, but I got used to it very quickly. It was summer so I bathed in the creek! The grounds of the farm are amazing. There is a farm stand from 12-6. The path to the yurt is somewhat treacherous so watch your step and use a flashlight after dark. But it is WONDERFUL!! The town of Bristol is so cool. Jill is a great host and all the farm hands were super nice! This is a great, get away from civilization trip for those who love the outdoors and Vermont culture. I will definitely return!!

Rustic comfort

Tucked in the woods with all the comforts (coffee maker, kitchen supplies, electric blanket) and true to a rustic adventure (outdoor cold shower, outhouse, wood for fires), this yurt and add-on kitchen was just what we were looking for. The host was warm and easy going, gave us plenty of privacy.

If you love nature, this place is more or less a temporary heaven. The yurt is lovely and unique; the separate kitchen building is so cozy and comforting. Outdoor shower is cold but refreshing :) Outhouse is no problem.

False advertising. This place do not have a shower and no wifi. Bathroom is a porta potty and far away from the room. This is not an apartment. This is a yurt.

The yurt was nice and the bed comfortable. The convenience of the fully stocked kitchen is wonderful. The property could use some weeding and clean up.

Perfect little getaway

This was the perfect stay between a hotel and camping. Close to Burlington where we needed to be for an event but far enough away from where others were staying to do our own thing. Absolutely loved it!

I expected ample wood supply inside yurt. Didn’t realize kitchen was off of yurt, water had to be connected and bathroom was an outhouse. I stepped inside the door, turn around and left. I didn’t stay there in 14F.

We loved our anniversary/baby moon stay here! An easy drive to Burlington, Shelburne and Ticonderoga attractions while being a quiet, affordable and more remote place to stay. Jill was a wonderful host and answered any questions we texted. The farm stand also had great fresh options to purchase and my husband also enjoyed the fire pit one evening. Loved having access to a full kitchen, clean outhouse, and hot shower while still getting a campy/outdoorsy experience but with a super comfy bed.

Looking for cleanliness?

I don’t recommend if your looking for cleanliness to stay here. There was old pizza crust and mouse droppings in one of the drawers. Everything was dusty and there were dead bugs everywhere. Also it looks different in person (pictures need to be updated). The wood is stacked very far away and the wood stove handle is very fiddly.

romantic, much needed getaway!

What a sweet little spot! We walked the farm the last weekend of the summer, things were still in full bloom- flowers and veggies alike! It was a little bit of a drive to Burlington, but nice to be out of range of the city. We had more fun just hanging at the yurt than we expected, we could have just skipped downtown altogether! We will definitely look forward to returning here for another romantic getaway!

Quiet, peaceful get away

Amazing. Like camping but sleeping in a warm soft bed and jabbing a full kitchen to use. Somewhat remote, peaceful and quiet but close enough to see many sights in Vermont. The owner is great to work with.
