Welcome to Yūgen Yurt, a peaceful retreat tucked away in a quiet natural setting where comfort, simplicity, and the mystery of life intertwine. Named after the Japanese word yūgen, which speaks to the subtle, profound beauty of existence, this unique round dwelling invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself and the land.
Whether you're seeking stillness, inspiration, or a digital detox, the yurt is a nurturing space for reflection, rest, and soul-centred living.
🛏 Inside the Yurt
A comfortable queen air mattress with cozy linens
A wood stove for warmth and ambiance (seasonal use)
A dining area with cushion floor seating
Soft lighting and calming decor
A skylight dome perfect for stargazing at night or watching gentle daylight filter in
The yurt is intentionally unplugged from wifi to support inner quiet and reconnection with nature. If, however, you really want wifi as part of your rental, just let us know! We admit that outdoor movies projected onto the yurt are super fun too!
