The hard winter this year crushed our yurt. We now have a beautiful new yurt with newly installed wood flooring. Offering quiet privacy, it is a truly rustic experience best suited to those who already have a comfort level with campground-type facilities. It is warm in summer and wood-heated in winter. The yurt is equipped with an outhouse, bathhouse with a hot shower, stove, fridge, queen size bed and a futon.

Excellent stay!!

Wonderful, private, clean yurt! Staying here reminded me why I love Hipcamp so much. You can’t get this type of experience in a hotel or house. I stayed with my two little kiddos and they’ll remember it for the rest of their lives! They were so excited to stay somewhere unique. The yurt was very well stocked with everything we needed and the shower house was amazing!! The privacy was excellent, could not see another house, only the pines.

Family recharge

our first time sleeping in a yurt and it won’t be our last. Lori and Keith make it feel like home away from home. Surroundings were absolutely beautiful and the swimming hole was amazing. there was a candle and some bug spray to keep the mosquitoes away, but would definitely recommend to bring more. The only thing we were confused about was in the description. It says trash bins are available, but it also says pack in pack out. we were unsure what we should do. We will definitely be going there again.

Private and relaxing

The yurt is awesome. Very well maintained and comfortable. The yurt and surrounding vault toilet and shower house sit above the personal property so you can't see anyone else around you. We spent our day exploring the surrounding area, even driving up to Caribou Rd and Lake Almanor.

I loved the privacy of the yurt location, my two dogs enjoyed walking around without a leash. The place felt cozy and having a hot shower was a plus after hiking all day. Really enjoyed the skylight at night.
