My sister and I had such a fun weekend at the yurt! It was so great to be able to escape our busy city life for a few days and enjoy some peace and quiet amongst nature and animals. We lit the fire both nights and the yurt was so toasty and warm. All 4 dogs came over to see us each morning which was very sweet. I would definitely say that you would have to be comfortable with dogs if you are coming to stay here. We enjoyed the starry nights, crisp autumn mornings and beautiful sunshine while we were here. One of the highlights was having a hot shower on a freezing cold Sunday morning while watching the sun come up over the hills.
