Secluded yurt in good walking woods. Not glamping but with an oven, wood stove the large yurt was comfortable.
The property wasn’t quite what expected to be so close to other dwellings but it is gorgeous. The yurt is really nice. Could use a place to hang a coat, and the owners are wonderful. It was private enough and some amazing swimming holes near by. My one big issue was the place was filthy and not just… your in a yurt and it should be expected. We had to find places to stack all the bedding and didn’t want to touch the couch. Piles of dog hair on everything and don’t move any furniture! Uncleaned surfaces with food on it still that attracts mice so lock up your food! Overall as a camper and a guy…
The yurt was clean and spacious. It got fairly close to freezing one night and yet we didn't feel the need to fire up the wood stove. The kitchen has the basics, but foodies will want to bring their favorite cooking gear if they plan to throw down in the kitchen. It's a reasonably short walk to the river, which looked pretty ideal for swimming. The carnivorous plants in the nearby botanical garden are worth a visit. Both the hosts were really nice, as were their two dogs. We'll definitely go back.
The butterfly valley yurt was great! We went the end of May and it was arm enough during the day to go swim in the swimming hole but cold enough at night to cuddle up! Lori had a fan, oven, some plates and utensils, and tons of blankets. Bed was comfortable enough. Outhouse didn’t stink and easy to use. Shower nozzle not too strong, but there was a shower and warm water! Lori was very thoughtful in making sure there was potable water at the yurt for use. We came very prepared so didn’t really need much. There’s electric and a deck w a table and chairs to relax on. There’s a trash bin to…
This is a wonderful location! The land is peaceful and secluded. Great for a dog walk through the forest. I really appreciated the wood stove for the cold mornings and a nice hot shower. Highly recommended.
