A cozy yurt nestled in the woods alongside the Shepherds river. A year round elevated camping experience.
The yurt is an off the grid one room open concept. There is no electricity or wifi. For lights there are two propane wall lights, battery operated lanterns and headlamps. Outside we have solar powered motion lights. For cooking we have a propane stove top and a well stocked kitchen area including 2- 5 gal. jugs of water for cooking and cleaning inside the yurt and a propane grill outside. The yurt is heated by a wood stove and there is an outdoor fire pit. We also supply the firewood. We have a queen size bed with pillows and bedding and 1 camping cot with pillow and sleeping bag to sleep up to 3 people. Site has its own outhouse and in the summer months there is an outdoor shower with water warmed by the sun.
Besides the yurt site you have access to the many trails throughout the property to enjoy year round. In the winter months you can go snowshoeing, cross country skiing and snowmobiling and the river is a great place for a dip in the summer!
We like to give our guest their space. but we live close by and you can message or call us with any questions.
