A cozy yurt nestled in the woods alongside the Shepherds river. A year round elevated off the grid camping experience. Sit by the woodstove in our comfy leather chair. Enjoy a good night sleep on the full size memory foam bed. The kitchen area has everything you need to cook a yummy breakfast. Listen to the river while sitting by the firepit.

My husband bought a house and moved to Brownfield in 2017. We met and were married in October of that same year. He had already owned the property where now we have our yurts. It was his dream to build yurts and rent them. Finally in the fall of 2021 we put up our first yurt! We now have three on the property. We love being hosts so we can share our yurts and let people have a fun camping experience!
