This yurt is enveloped in nature - the sounds of the rain, frogs, and all other creatures were fun to hear in the evening/night. There is a full fridge/stove/microwave/etc to make meals if you wanted! it's a close drive (about 20 min or so) to the volcano national park. we only stayed 1 night, my kids wanted longer! we used it as a base to visit the volcano national park. Memorable stay
