Yurtastic!

Never stayed in a yurt before. Had a great time. Loved the decor and accommodations. The throwback to Mayberry in neighboring Mt. Airy was a nice surprise treat as well.

Great Getaway

Really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be back. Hot tub, hammock, walk around deck, fire pit. Place has all the amenities. The highlight was hearing the heavy ran beat on the yurt and watching the lightning through the dome, so peaceful.

Wonderful getaway

It was such an amazing experience. First time staying in a yurt so we weren’t sure if we need to bring or prepare anything, but everything’s there. We can just check in and enjoy :) We also recommended this place to several of our friends because we love it so much. Thank you for having us!

Quick Getaway

Our stay at the yurt was nothing short of magical. Tucked away amidst towering trees and rolling hills, the yurt offered a tranquil escape only a short 90 minutes from Charlotte. The interior was cozy and thoughtfully decorated, providing all the comforts of home while still allowing us to immerse ourselves in nature's beauty. If you're looking for a rejuvenating retreat surrounded by nature's splendor, look no further than this charming yurt. We can't wait to return!

10 year Wedding Anniversary

This was our first stay in a Yurt and we weren't disappointed. We loved the layout, the way we could stargaze in our bed, and relax in the hot tub. I was looking for a private, mountain getaway and this was recommended. My husband and I were celebrating out 10 year Wedding Anniversary and just wanted to get away. We loved ever minute and we will be back. Thank you for everything ❤️

First class

This place was top notch from top to bottom, great communication with owner. Every thing u need ( we over packed) if you can think of it as far as amenities goes, it’s there. We will be back for years to come . If I were to have just one critique, it would be our yurt outside light went off automatically at 11:00, while the others stayed on for about an additional hour. But again I’m just not picking for even mentioning it. Great stay

Peaceful

Really peacful and clean even though the power was out. We arrived to no power, due to hurricane Helene (we did have the option to leave at anytime). We stayed with no power for 2.5 days, but we made it work. All of the neighbors were super nice and the owner was AMAZING. I would 100% recommend this place and we will absolutely be coming back. The hot tub was super nice and relaxing and so was the very large bathtub. The shower has shampoo, conditioner and body wash built in which is nice even though we had our own. The kitchen has just about evehrhing you need as well.The bed is very comfortable! I genuinely cannot say enough good things about the owner and the property. It was definitely an experience without power but well worth it once power was restored! the neighbors werew
