An absolute jewel

We loved this property. Communication was great. The cabin is cozy and so cute. We had everything we needed and we're created with a very thoughtful snack basket waiting for us. On our first night a really bad storm took down a tree and (unfortunately) the dish. We were able to use wifi to watch TV. The location is remote- perfect to unwind and reset.

luxury in the outdoors

Went for our 10 yr anniversary for a mix of the outdoors in luxury. The yurt was well furnished, it had a choice of private gas fire pit on the creek or shared wood fire pit. There was a cute little welcome basket with some snacks. Super comfy bed w patio off the master. Large shower and fully stocked kitchen. Anne communicated well in advance a few weeks before, and 2 days prior for check in instructions

The yurt was beautiful! We enjoyed relaxing while we were there. It rained the whole time so we stayed at the yurt. There were a few Christmas decorations, which I love! The door was difficult to unlock, but once we were in, it was amazing!

The yurts are really great. This is an amazing place to relax and disconnect. In addition to grilling and fire pits, the kitchen is fully equipped for all cooking and many baking needs. I really like this place and will be coming back again for sure.
