Romantic

Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is romantic.

This unique place in Lyle, Washington - part of the Columbia River Gorge scenic area - is magical and utterly beautiful. The property is set in a magnificent meadow as far as the eye can see with soft rolling hills, edged up to a deep oak woodland/ponderosa pine forest. Wildlife, stars, trails, and rivers all abound here. We think it is one of the finest, most precious and beautiful places on the planet. For outdoor recreation, this area is a windsurfing and kiteboarding mecca. Mount Adams and Mount Hood, await hikers and skiers, and kayaking is popular on the Klickitat and White Salmon Rivers. Heart-stopping beauty and peacefulness whichever way you turn. You will feel like you have gone to your own little Shangri-La and you will not soon forget the experience. Even sleeping is special here, as you look up into the dome of the yurt and behold the stars, while twinkle lights gently illuminate the interior. We live in a slice of heaven, and we want to share it with others.This unique place in Lyle, Washington - part of the Columbia River Gorge scenic area - is magical and utterly beautiful.

Yurt Life 🛖

The yurt was sweet and inviting. You can tell the host truly wants to share the beauty of her land and simpler living with all those who pass by. There was a lot of heart in the stay and we very much appreciated the reprieve from busy life. Woof fire stove, well water, gorgeous walks, stars and cozy game play in the yurt were our highlights

I loved camping at this yurt! Super inviting and in such a great area. It was beautiful in the morning and I enjoyed being able to build fires and celebrate a birthday. I would return again in a heart beat.

Loved the stay so much!! The yurt was so cute, and super cozy while still feeling spacious. They had all of the appliances we needed, and made the stay comfortable and stress-free.

This yurt is located in a quiet rural valley, out of sight from neighbors. The views from the property are absolutely stunning. The wood stove keeps the space warm and cozy on a cold night. We loved this sweet little cupcake.

A must stay!

This was our first Hipcamp experience and I have to say it exceeded our expectations. Beautiful views, quiet fields of tall grass and the sounds of wildlife. I do wish we were able to light the fire inside the yurt as it got very chilly once the sun went down. But the sunset views made our night very special. Highly recommend.

A Happy Birthday Experience

The experience in the Forest Cupcake to celebrate my husband’s birthday was exceptional. The yurt space is large and well-appointed with several thoughtful and creative details. The purple bench at the top of the hill was such a stellar feature and we enjoyed a lovely sunset from that vantage point. It was everything we hoped for: quiet, comfortable, lovely setting, and accommodating for our dogs. We’ll keep this on our Favorites list! Thank you for sharing your beautiful property.
