Great location
95% of recent guests gave the location a 5-star rating.
Our yurt offers a sweet retreat in the woods about 10 miles outside of Bayfield. We are located on a small working organic farm with a high tunnel, gardens, apple trees, and rustic accommodations. We are close to great outdoor recreation near Lake Superior and are about 6 miles from Meyers Beach in the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. Our property is located on 40 acres and is very remote. We are on the edge of thousands of acres of county land. The perfect escape!

The space
A Few Notes:

Electricity: We are an off-the-grid solar electric farm, so we have a limited amount of electricity. We suggest bringing a headlamp or flashlight as well as there is only one light in the yurt. In addition to the light, there is an iPod dock/radio. After November 1st, the fridge is turned off, but you can still store your food in it and the outlets are turned off.

Bathrooms: We have an outhouse with a composting toilet, so expect to venture out of the yurt to use the restroom. There is no shower onsite. Please plan ahead if you are hoping to find public showers, we can't guarantee their hours or availability due to the pandemic.

Communication: We have a phone in the yurt for local calls and for emergencies. There is no WIFI or cell phone service. If you are looking to unplug, this is the perfect place for you!

Heat: The yurt is heated by wood stove and wood will be provided. During the winter, know that it can take several hours to warm the space and be prepared to feed the fire overnight. We suggest bringing slippers to keep your feet warm during colder months.

Pets: No Pets allowed! Period...

Smoking: No Smoking INSIDE the yurt. Feel free to smoke outside, but dispose of your butts safely.

Bedding: We have one full size futon in the loft and another full size futon on the main floor. Bedding and pillows are NOT provided. Please plan accordingly.

Capacity: We have beds for 4 people, and that is the recommended amount of folks to stay in the yurt. If you have a larger group, we may be able to make accommodations. Please inquire and we will do our best to help!

Cooking: We provide a few basics: a set of dishes, silverware, pots/pans. We have a 4 burner propane stove. There is NO oven. We have a fridge for storing food, but it is turned OFF in the winter. You may still keep food in there during your stay. Please make sure your food is secure in the fridge or in a cooler inside the yurt. There are black bears around and we don't want them to eat your dinner. No candles or open flames in the yurt.

Water: We provide a 5 gallon jug of water, during the summer months, but during the winter, (November-Early May) you need to bring your own. The nearest artesian well is in Cornucopia, WI. Otherwise, you can bring water before you come.

Garbage: We are a leave no trace operation. Please pack in and pack out your goods.

Kids: Here's the deal-kids are welcome, with caution. The yurt is not child proof. We are open to the idea, but it may be more work for you as the parent!

I know we live in the woods, but please respect our wishes.. No firearms. No fireworks. No hunting.

Camping: Is allowed. Please inquire within about the best places to put your tent.

COVID 19- We are taking extra precautions with cleaning and sanititizing in between guests. Your health and safety is very important to us. If you are experiencing any symptoms, we ask that you re-schedule your trip to the farm and we will offer a refund. We ask that you try to bring everything you need with you, as not all local businesses have re-openend. Many restaurants are doing take out only. If you do need to shop locally, please follow CDC recommendations for social distancing and wearing masks. Thanks for your support in keeping our community safe and healthy.

Location

Bayfield, Wisconsin, United States

We are located near lots of natural beauty.. the most beautiful beaches Lake Superior has to offer, great hiking, biking, paddling and fishing. If you are more of a city girl, we are close to great restaurants and shopping in Bayfield. Either way, the yurt is perfect balance for the person on a budget, who wants to explore a unique setting and have a bed to sleep in!
