The best yurts in California

Name: California
Address: California
Rating: 4.8415

California is anything but basic, so why should your camping be? A yurt provides a glamping-style experience in some of the state’s coolest outdoor settings. A few places such as Big Sur have yurt resorts (book well in advance), but private yurts often stand alone so you can enjoy a little seclusion. In the north, a yurt in Eureka or Mendocino provides proximity to coastal Redwood forests like Redwood National and State Parks and Mendocino Woodlands State Park. In Wine Country, buy a bottle of local vino to enjoy back at a vineyard-view yurt, or head to Santa Cruz where both forested hills and surfing beaches are accessible. In Southern California, the desert is a glamping paradise where yurts and other unique lodging put you near Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park. If you can’t find the perfect yurt, alternative structures like canvas tents, bell tents, domes, tipis, and pods offer similar types of stays.

We had a wonderful stay at Double Bear with our two children and couldn't have asked for a better family camping experience. The host has designed the property very thoughtfully, with everything laid out to make guests feel comfortable and welcome. The campsite is perfect for families. There was plenty of space for the kids to explore, relax, and enjoy nature, while the shared areas made it easy to connect with other campers. We actually ended up making new friends with another family during our stay, which made the experience even more memorable. The amenities were well maintained, and it was clear that a lot of care has gone into creating a fun, peaceful, and inviting place. Whether you're bringing a group of friends or looking for a family getaway, this is a fantastic spot. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and family-friendly camping experience!

Weekend Trip to Spirit Bend

Doug was very kind and helpful! The whole property was amazing. You can see his home from the Yurts but don’t let that fool you! He gives privacy so you don’t feel like you're being watched by the host at all. You basically have the property to your self (especially down by the river) my dogs loved every single inch & them being able to be off leash was a big plus!! The whole property is a beautiful gem and he is working on making it better. I can’t wait to be back!! Also the hot tub at night was the cherry on top no time or noise level restrictions!! We will absolutely be back! Thanks Doug! 😁

Weekend Trip to Double Bear

We were fortunate to reserve all of Double Bear’s yurts for the weekend. The drive there was a bit of an adventure, as the last mile is mostly a dirt and gravel road. Personally, I found it fun and added to the experience. Once you arrive at Double Bear, you're in for a treat. The yurts are clean, spacious, and cozy. There's plenty of firewood to keep you warm inside the yurts and for the communal fire pit, which we had all to ourselves. The kitchen and dining area is huge and fully stocked with bottled water and just about everything you could need. The bathrooms and showers are stocked with towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. It really isn't much different from some of the higher-end glamping sites. One thing we really appreciated was the reliable Starlink Wi-Fi, which was available throughout the property. It was a nice bonus to have fast internet access while still enjoying the peaceful mountain setting. There's also a hot tub that comfortably fits more than six people and offers a beautiful view of the mountains. Most importantly, Mathilda, our host, was outstanding. Her communication was excellent from start to finish. She even stopped by the next day to make sure we were doing well and to see if we needed more coffee or anything else. We can't wait to come back and spend more time at Double Bear!

Weekend Trip to Mariposa Institute

We loved our stay in the YURT! What a beautiful property, love the rustic style and the yurt was bigger than we expected. The property had som cute kitties that came and hung out with us. We brought our little dog with us and it was fun for him too! Would recommend, very peaceful. I felt like I was at summer camp.

Weekend Trip to Yurt In The Redwoods

Highly recommend a stay at this beautiful yurt. It’s so peaceful and we enjoyed walking the property looking for banana slugs. Really enjoyed using the kitchen which was fully stocked and the hot shower was amazing as well. This yurt is located within 20-45 min to many beaches, state parks, and restaurants! Bridgette and Curtis are kind and welcoming too!

2 nights at Double Bear

Our stay at Mathilda’s campsite was truly a magical and memorable experience. The yurt was so cozy and thoughtfully set up, giving us the perfect opportunity to enjoy the feeling of camping while still having all the comforts that made our stay relaxing and enjoyable. The property itself is absolutely beautiful, surrounded by marvelous nature that brings a sense of peace and tranquility. We loved waking up to the sights and sounds of the natural surroundings, and every corner of the campsite reflected the care and attention that has gone into creating such a special place. The cleanliness, facilities, and amenities exceeded our expectations. A special thank you to Mathilda for being such a wonderful host. Her detailed instructions for navigating the last mile to the campsite were extremely helpful, if you follow them to the T, finding the property is very easy. Overall, this was a perfect getaway for our family: a chance to disconnect, enjoy nature, and experience camping in a comfortable, cozy, and beautiful setting. We are grateful for the experience and would absolutely love to return. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and peaceful escape!

3 nights at Double Bear

We had such a wonderful stay at Double Bear. The property is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, comfortable, and impeccably clean. Every detail felt thoughtfully considered, making it easy to relax and enjoy the surrounding nature. Matilda was an incredibly kind and welcoming host, and her care for the property truly shows. During our stay, we shared the camp with another family, and one thing we especially appreciated was the balance between privacy and community. Our yurt felt private and tucked away, while the shared spaces created opportunities for connection and a warm, communal atmosphere. Our kids had an amazing time. They loved soaking in the hot tub, playing the lawn games provided by the host, and spending hours exploring and playing among the beautiful redwoods throughout the camp. It felt like the kind of place where both kids and adults could truly unwind and connect with nature. We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already talking about a return visit. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique and restorative glamping experience.
