I am happy to accommodate any guest for their camping experience on my property, but I do like to double-check that my guests fully understand what they are renting. There are no open fires allowed on the property in the summer, and no dogs, guns, or fireworks. There is no electricity or running water on the property, and even though I point that out every time I rent it, people still have arrived there and then send me messages asking where they can start a bonfire or asking where the shower is, lol. Other people who were fully prepared and wanted this "off-the-grid" experience have told me that my place was absolute heaven for them. Essentially, staying at this yurt is like camping in the woods with all the dirt and the hundreds of bug bites to go with it, and those that expect something more are usually disappointed. You should plan on bringing all of your own water and pack out all of your garbage. There are air mattresses provided but no sheets or laundered comforters, so please bring your own sheets or sleeping bag. There are a couple extra sleeping bags hanging around if you want to use them. Think of it like a forest service cabin, it is not maintained in between guests, and you might need to sweep it upon arrival and please give the place a quick sweep and wipe down of any counters. There is no cleaning charge associated with this listing and it is always on a self serve basis which makes it affordable for all of my guests! Make sure you read everything carefully and then let me know and we can finalize your yurt booking if you still want to. Thx!
If you want to place with electricity and drinking water please don’t stay here. There are lots of lovely places like that in the Talkeetna area. If you want a place with no dirt or bugs, please don’t stay here. If you want to rent a place that is cheaper than mine, you should totally do that. Again, there are lots of lovely places until keep me to stay in my place is not the right choice for everybody. Other people have loved my property and tell me that I don’t charge enough.
