Jasper Moss is a glamping retreat experience located on the remote Bois Blanc Island, Michigan, where you can unplug, rest, retreat and rejuvenate while surrounded by untouched nature. The venue consists of three yurts, an outdoor (hot) shower, sink and toilet, and fully screened outdoor kitchen. (Newly renovated bathroom and updated kitchen, photo updates to come soon!) It is located across the gravel road from Lake Huron, next to a public nature preserve and a 5-minute walk from one of just two restaurants on the island. The blue and turquoise yurts each have a full-sized bed, a small table and two chairs. The red yurt has two twin beds. There is basic electric access for a bedside light, fan, and charging of electronics as needed. The outdoor kitchen is fully screened in, and offers basic amenities for communal use, such as a refrigerator, grill, gas burner and griddle, toaster oven, coffee maker, and basic utensils, dishes, pots, and pans. Revelers will live comfortably close to the Earth and immersed in the diversity of flora, fauna, and geology. Onsite is a separate art studio where we paint, turn wood, and do lapidary art. We offer workshops for painting, lapidary art, felting, and other art interests. We offer guided rockhounding, hikes, fishing, and paddling. Additionally, there are several outdoor and water games, as well as board games and books available for use. Inquire directly to customize your island experience. Kids and families are welcome. Jasper Moss is located on a private property, owned and operated by a BIPOC LGBTQIA family of 6. Important things to note: 1) You must take a ferry to the island, via Plaunt Transportation, which leaves out of Cheboygan, Michigan: (insert link to ferry schedule) 2) Your experience is entirely customizable. It can be booked as a retreat package, as just a yurt rental, or with yurt rental and book as you go menu items 3) Want an experience beyond just a yurt rental? Contact us via email at jaspermossretreat@gmail.com and we will help you plan for an extraordinary nature and art vacation.

Serene, cute, and comfy

Blue Yurt #1

Five stars, 10/10! Jess was a great host and has a great property--everything is well thought out and cared for while also blending into the natural environment, which is absolutley gorgeous. The bathroom and shower are brand new, outdoor kitchen has everything you need to prepare your meals and coffee in a screened in space. My pup and I had a great time exploring the island and coming back for comfy rest in the yurt--will definitely be back!
