The only thing i can give any kind of criticism to is the air conditioning. It way under powered. If we were to have rented in the dead of summer, I would have been upset do the fact of it ran all the time and cooled it off by maybe 10 degrees. There were time where it was cooler outside than inside. ##### Scott S. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keith G.

Really fun and unique place and as advertised, however firepit area could use a trim. Bed was comfortable, and pullout was comfy as well. Able to work remotely and had no trouble, We enjoyed grilling on the deck and the solostove for smores in evenings! ##### Keith G. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Teresa Jul 29, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was awful, so hot and humid. It’s false advertisement on the AC part because when I stayed it was 85+ degrees, fans half ass worked and place had dead BUGS everywhere even on the bed. I even woke up to a roach laying on the floor by the bathroom. The grill is ONLY charcoal and would not light no matter how much lighter fluid you used. I’d do no stars but it’s impossible unfortunately.

A cozy Yurt. I would stay again. Would love to see the property when it’s complete. To unwind before and after exploring, I recommend taking a light-weight TV with you. We did and it was the perfect decision. Take your own amenities. The kitchen desperately needs an updated Brita (or Brita like) pitcher. Stairs to the top level bed are super dicey - I imagine that’s a Yurt situation across the board. The owner (hello!) did say he might be there at the adjoining cottage doing work, and maybe he was but it was impossible to know because at least 3 men showed up Tuesday and stayed the whole day, night, and into the next day- our last morning there. It did not sit well with us that men were working well into the late night/early morning (midnight, 1am etc.) while we were unwinding and sleeping. One professing he stays at the Yurt often… maybe he had a spare key we knew nothing about. Anyways, for safety & ease I wouldn’t have multiple people out at the property burning debris and other types of manual labor while the Yurt is being occupied. 2 pints of ice cream were left in the freezer - enjoy!!! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7ce290d7-a53a-4822-b259-a50b8c7d481e-1762125453631.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/39f3de64-87e7-49a2-b40b-5c368d9ea267-1762125449676.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2a398e84-9409-451c-802e-2e6709456131-1762125450710.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/edf46f3e-1e9a-4ee2-b069-32df0c18d164-1762125449829.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Carla Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph E.

We got our quiet in, it's in a very nice location, and what an experience in a yurt! The host was incredibly responsive. I would only take this experience in if I had no mobility issues, as the main bed is up some steep steps. We appreciated all of the heating and cooling needs the host has put in the yurt, as some we have seen and experienced have little of these accommodations. A great place to stay in and around the Lost City area of West Virginia! ##### Joseph E. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stacy L.

Set in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood you can get back to nature in style. Russell is an attentive host and responds to any inquiry quickly. ##### Stacy L.

An extremely unique experience in a very private location. Being in a circular living space felt so big! The place is appointed well, with just the right amount of items to make the stay comfortable. But hard to remember we were really not indoors and it is best to venture out in the hottest part of the day. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janae M. Oct 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome Experience My husband and I totally loved our stay in the Yurt. Russell was an amazing host and got back to me within minutes if I had any questions. It had all the amenities of home but the feeling of being close to nature. The yurt sits on a lot of land and our dogs loved exploring. The only thing I will say is the stairs up to the bed are quite tricky and my husband's older knees struggled a bit. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants the experience of "glamping". ##### Janae M. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arin Melissa B. Apr 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely wonderful! The yurt is incredible. The structure itself is very cool, but it's set amongst several pastures to walk through with your dog in the morning listening to birdsong and cows and during the magic hour in the evening. It has everything you could need; this is luxury glamping! Russ is so nice and responsive and helpful. Lost River State Park and George Washington National Forest are a few turns away. There's nothing nicer than sitting on the deck with a drink and watching the birds and the baby cows across the way in the afternoons. The pup and I had the most wonderful time and we will absolutely be back! ##### Arin Melissa B. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benjamin V. May 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Misty Mountain Hop We had an absolutely wonderful time over our long weekend at the yurt. Its a very nice space, good to experience living in a circle, and set on a hillside in a very quiet valley. There was a very lively cow heard across the way making thier opinions known, whom we cnamed collectively "Stadler & Waldorf". It is an largely uninsulated tent, so thermalregulation is an active process, and the wifi was put during our stay. I will also reccomend bringing a hand saw, as there is firewood to burn but the stove in the yurt is too small for narmal log sizes. The lofted bed, skylight, and fabric construction make for a fully immersive experience. Nearly our whole stay was rain, but the play of the rain and wind on the hut was loads of fun. Definitely reccomend the space. ##### Benjamin V. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brittanie P. Apr 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nothing short of amazing! My husband and I came to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We were blown away! We chose this spot because we thought it would be cool to stay in a yurt, we didn’t know what exactly to expect, but the pictures looked nice! We arrived and were pleasantly surprised at the fact that it is truly in the middle of nowhere (EXACTLY what we wanted). The yurt was gorgeous, super spacious, CLEAN, and felt like home. We enjoyed having breakfast and dinner outside on the deck, listening to the rain fall on the roof, watching the stars from bed, and listening to the sounds of nature (and cows!) in the early morning when we woke up. Also, we enjoyed all of the games!! We played lots of Zuni and LOTS of Scrabble!! I highly recommend - taking the hike to Cranny Crow in Lost River State Park - Lost River Grill for a close by restaurant - fishing the stream at Howard’s Lick trail for brook trout at Lost River State Park - Taking an evening in Moorefield to see a movie and have dinner (and dessert!) at Oneills - Taking at least an afternoon and evening staying in and just enjoying the yurt and the peacefulness! Thank you, Russell!! ##### Brittanie P. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles O. Jun 30, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Scenic Tranquility This is a wonderful slice of West Virginia. Russ was very communicative and never more than an email away (something he must monitor constantly). The check-in was seamless and as easy as going home. The drive may be slightly daunting for those uninitiated to Appalachian roads, but nothing to keep you from taking advantage of this local. Just slow down and enjoy the scenery. The yurt is something to behold second only to the scenery. Be forewarned, if you have some mobility issues the stairs to the sleeping area may be a little tricky. But that is fine, as there is a pullout sleeper. Also, watch your head at the top! I may have dented the boards at the head of the stairs the first time I went up. The kitchen doesn't have a full range, just an electric hotplate so take advantage of the provided charcoal grill. One thing to note, the yurt is located approximately 1.5K feet, so pack a jacket as it gets chilly in the morning. But the sun coming over the mountains will warm you up as you enjoy a cup of coffee on the deck. Even though this is located in the heart of Hardy County and far away from the hustle and bustle of the city we never experienced any issue with the internet connectivity. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to escape the outside world for a while and slow down. There is something magical about the mountains. ##### Charles O.

Extremely well thought out design and amenities. It had more than announced: toaster and an awesome indoor grill (outdoor charcoal grill too) that we got to use - we were there when the storm Ida went through - the yurt held up beautifully (though the rain was loud!). Loved the candles too, and the puzzles and games! Location is great and private - we saw deer and hawks and enjoyed the fire pit at night with shooting stars. Would love to come back. ##### Siv T.
