Some info has been automatically translated.
The Yurt at Solar Solitude sits on 8.4 acres, which are all available for exploring. The adjacent George Washington National Forest is ideal for hiking, Lost River State Park is just minutes away. Sit in the living room and enjoy the quiet beauty of nature while feeling the warmth from the wood sgaze up at the stars WIFI works well. it’s a clamping experience so the air conditioner won’t really do much in the heat of summer so I recommend you plan day trips during the heat of the summer.

The space
The 30 foot yurt has a kitchen table, desk for working, couch and chairs. The full bathroom allows for a comfortable stay. The Queen Bed in the loft is very comfortable.

The Solar Cottage is also on the property and is occasionally occupied as well.

Guest access
Guests can roam throughout the 8.4 acres of Solar Solitude. Wifi is available from around the yurt, down to the road entrance. Relaxing in the hammock, on deck chairs or on the deck, looking at the mountain are our favorites! There is a waterfall and pond, walking paths around the pond, as well as a perimeter path that provides a 1/2 mile nature hike!

Other things to note
When it's cold out you'll want to get the space heaters and wood stove going right away. The large brown space heater next to the sofa puts out a lot of heat. You will want to slightly open the round vent windows on the wood stove door to ensure your fire gets enough air to thrive. Keep the fire going when it's cold, and keep the door/windows closed and the space warms up nicely!

Neighborhood highlights

Great hiking just minutes away! Just down the street, on Lower Cove Rd you can hike the George Washington National Park. By driving to the end of Upper Cove Rd you can hike Lost River State park. For longer day trips try Seneca Rocks and Spruce Knob for stunning vistas and vigorous hiking!

Lost River State Park has some great hiking trails! You can get a copy of the trail maps online, or at the lodge in the park.
There aren't a lot of places for groceries nearby, but just 1/4 mile down highway 259 from the Lost River State Park entrance is a gas station/grocery/hardware store. They make good sandwiches, and have groceries. You can get orders to go from the Lost River Grille, as well. Larger grocery stores are in Moorefield, about 40 minutes away.
