About this property

Relax in a Cozy, Skylit Yurt at a Farm Animal Sanctuary

  • Enjoy a peaceful stay at a gorgeous farm animal sanctuary and certified wildlife habitat.

    Our hand-built Yurt has bunk beds with a full-size and queen-size mattress, and a full-size air mattress is also available on request. The Yurt also features a skylight, a cozy reading nook with an oversized egg chair, a writing desk, and a working wood stove. Guests have access to bathroom facilities, including a hot shower, as well as a kitchenette with hot plate, coffee maker, mini-fridge, sink, water cooler, plates, and cutlery, in a separate unit next door.

    Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge is a forever home to over 100 rescued ducks, geese, cows, sheep, goats, chickens, and turkeys, with beautiful species-specific habitats designed by a professional architect. Guests can walk the sanctuary grounds between 9-4. If you'd like to meet the animals in their habitats, you can sign up to volunteer, sign up on a weekend with a Tour & Explore event, and/or book a private tour for up to ten people. More details about these opportunities can be found at our website and will also be provided upon rental.

    There are many vegan restaurant options in nearby Chapel Hill and Raleigh-Durham, outlined in our Triangle Vegan Dining guide, as well as shopping and entertainment in Pittsboro and Saxapahaw.

My family and I had such a wonderful time staying at the Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge yurt! We had visited the refuge before, but being able to stay overnight and experience the sanctuary on our own was really special.The yurt was cozy, comfortable, and completely charming! The nearby amenities, including the restroom and kitchenette, were clean and easily accessible. During our stay, we enjoyed walking around the refuge and giving snacks to the goats, sheep, and cows, many of whom were very interactive. We also signed up for general volunteering and had an amazing time learning more about how the refuge operates while helping with daily tasks. It gave us an even greater appreciation for the work being done to care for these incredible animals.This was such a unique and meaningful experience, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway while supporting a wonderful cause!
