🌙 Bay Area Yurt Retreat — your cozy escape near Oakland
Leave the city behind and step into serenity in our private yurt perched on peaceful land just outside Oakland. Perfect for two, this snug hideaway is made for couples, solo travelers, or anyone craving a little nature without sacrificing comfort.
What makes it special:
A charming, private yurt — sleeps two, with all the essentials provided
Just far enough to feel removed from the hustle, yet close enough to the Bay Area when you want action
Showers, potable water, and toilet included — all the amenities you need to refresh and relax
Things you’ll love doing here:
Slow mornings: sip coffee in the quiet, listen to birds, absorb the calm
Explore the trails or parks nearby, then return to your yurt under starlit skies
Cozy evenings curling up with a book or chatting by soft lantern light

Nestled among ancient redwoods at the end of our winding dirt road, and along the edge of Butano Creek, our Retreat Center is a hidden gem. Tucked away on a private acreage in the charming town of Pescadero, we're about an hours drive from our neighboring Bay Area cities, San Francisco, Palo Alto, and Santa Cruz. Venture is rooted in the 1960s counterculture movement, and we've long served as a haven for spiritual exploration, self-discovery, and personal growth. Our special spot is a serene escape when you're seeking time to connect with your spiritual path, serenity and relaxation, or reconnection with nature.
Venture is owned and operated by a nonprofit organization. Our center is designed to welcome transformational personal growth and wellness groups, as well as other nonprofit groups, Companies and schools looking for a place to teach workshops and retreats.
Being that we are surrounded by nature, along with beautiful nooks and structures that invite people to unplug, put their phones down and tune into nature. The birdsongs, natural landscape, wildlife, creekside meadow, redwoods, willows and more, all lend towards diving deeper to connect on a deeper level.
The campus offers a mix of dispersed charming cabins, a serene yurt, camping sites, and glamping tents. You can immerse yourself in the lush forest that surrounds us, soak up the sun, and explore creek-side beauty. Gather around the warmth of an evening fire or drum circle and enjoy the dusk and starshine coming on.
Just down the street is Pescadero proper. A sweet little spot (nine hundred strong) and California coast perfection. You'll find gorgeous scenery, local food and drink, neat landmarks, beautiful places to hike and explore, fun galleries, and really, really good people. Ask us for our favorite spots, we’re more than happy to share!

10 nights at Bay Area Yurt Retreat!
What a beautiful site! The pictures accurately represented the property, but there was so much more to experience! The view of the city is amazing, and even more so during sunset. The amenities were great and included a window fan, microwave, and mini fridge. We were so happy with our stay. Communicating with Oscar was easy and quick. We also got to meet the owners of the property and they were incredibly kind and inviting. We would love to come back!

Campground is perfect in every way, except a few things that were annoying. door of cabin would not lock, WiFi is not free and is not good enough to make a phone call.
