Peaceful Yurt on a Sweet Farm

Beautiful, peaceful retreat in a lovely yurt surrounded by sweet, friendly farm animals. We had an amazing weekend staying at Stephanie & Adam's property, they are incredible hosts! Breakfast is a MUST (Stephanie, you should sell your sourdough, soooo good!) We loved kayaking and exploring the river, there is NO ONE around! We are grateful to the hosts for making it such a nice experience. Highly recommend for a couple weekend getaway!

Idyllic farm stay

Stephanie and her family have a beautiful large property close to the bay area. The yurt is big, they have cute friendly farm animals including so many cats. I ordered breakfast, it was made with eggs laid by their own chickens.

We had a fantastic weekend at Stephanie's yurt! The yurt itself is awesome and offers a unique adventure—perfect for anyone looking to experience something a bit different. Stephanie and her family were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. My husband had a great time fishing at the nearby river, which was a wonderful addition to our stay. Plus, all the animals on the farm are absolutely adorable! We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Highly recommend!

Staying at the yurt was the perfect romantic getaway! The property and yurt was beautiful, there was clean water and a toilet next to the yurt, soft clean sheets, a bonfire pit and plenty of privacy. Benny was the absolute best boy! being surrounded by the other farm animals was beautiful and serene. The river was a short walk down the hill and the water was perfect for swimming in. Both Stephanie and her husband were very kind and friendly. Would definitely love to be back here.

Mixed feelings

· July 2024

The river access is amazing & so was the breakfast. It was over 100 degrees when I stayed. The air conditioning had been going but when I got there a window was completely open so it was still extremely hot & didn’t cool down until that night. I pulled up a chair & sat in front of the AC for an hour. The “toilet” is actually just a bucket with a trash bag in it. The farm animals are cute but the dogs kept me up all night barking. I didn’t realize the animals stayed right outside the yurt & you could hear them at all hours. I messaged the hosts about the dogs keeping me up (they barked until 2 am) but they didn’t do anything about it. I loved the river & the bed was cozy but felt like I paid too much money to be uncomfortable & not sleep.

I had a wonderful experience at the yurt! With 100+ degree temps during my stay, having in unit AC was pretty clutch - I was plenty comfortable at night / when I woke up. Great fire pit with plenty of wood for a night time fire (stars were incredible). I ended up getting a massage from Stephanie that was INCREDIBLE; the skillet breakfast was also A+. Overall, a great stay
