The best yurts in California

Name: California
Address: California
Rating: 4.8265

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.

The Redwoods Bend Retreat is a place to get away from it all. Located on the Yurok reservation right on the Klamath River just outside Orick, CA, we are "off the grid", through a Redwood forest and over a mountain down into the Klamath River valley. We have a 5 acre meadow, and orchard with 50 trees, peaches pears, apples, cherries, plums, pluots, apricots and grapes. We are right on the Klamath river. It's a great place to come and recharge your internal batteries. There is no cellphone service and none of our sites have internet service. Our Main House was built in 1952 and retains the flavor of the 50’s. It houses a kitchen, dining hall, a living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom with a bathtub and shower. Our log-built Lodge overlooks the Klamath River with 3 bedrooms, a full kitchen, bathroom and wrap-around covered porch. Our Pumpkin and Blue Cottages. They are close to the double Yellow Shower house and toilets, and they have hot and cold running water, a propane cooktop, and a wood stove for heat. We do NOT have refrigeration, and our solar batteries or generator provides us lights at night. Campers who use our Cottages may use their own sleeping bags, but we have beds with mattresses and pillows and clean bedding. We also have an Upper Barn bedroom and half-bath rental. Our two-story Riverview Yurt appeals to folks who want a full kitchen, a private shower and flush toilet overlooking the Klamath river from our 50 x 50 foot upper deck. Luscious to sit outside and watch the river flow by during the day, and to let the water lull you to sleep at night. For families (up to 8), folks who like to fish, or old friends who just want a very special get-away. Each of our six campsites have a picnic table and a fire pit. Our Maple River, Grotto River and Pepperwood River sites overlook the gorgeous Klamath River. Our Morning Meadow, Orchard Meadow, and Deer Meadow sites are close to our 5 acre meadow where blacktail deer graze in the evenings. We have a Yellow double Shower House with two separate sides, each with a toilet, sink and shower and on demand hot water, so folks don't have to wait. There's also a new Camp Shower at the corner of the orchard for our campers, along with two outhouses for camper use, one at the bottom of the road down to the meadow, and another in the woods just past Deer Meadow Camp. We see lots of wildlife; silver foxes, a bald eagle and a family of river otters downstream, vultures, blue heron, occasionally an osprey will fly overhead clutching a freshly caught salmon and call to each other to brag about it! There are rare sightings of timid black bears who run from humans, but sometimes can be seen grazing in the meadow with the black-tail deer. We're surrounded by old logging trails made by the lumber companies 80 years ago when they clear cut the old growth redwood on our side of the mountain, and now it's completely reforested with 200 ft tall Doug Fir, Madrone, Cedar, Oak, other pine species and Pepper wood trees, and we have written permission from the Green Diamond company to allow guest to hike on their adjacent properties.

Each yurt has a kitchen that is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc. Each yurt has a Queen bed with a heating blanket to help keep you cozy throughout the night. Each yurt has its own dedicated wood-fired hot tub. It requires a fire to be lit and maintained to keep it hot.  Things you might like to bring: headlamps,  robe,  flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes. Water: we are on a well and provide fresh drinking water in a container for you. It’s fine to drink, cook, and bathe with the water from the tap but it can have a minerally quality to it. We test the well annually. We provide filtered water but if it runs out, the water out of the tap is safe and delicious. The hot tub: it’s wood fired. This means you have to heat it with a fire to get it hot. This can take many hours to get to the right temperature. It’s a good idea to start a fire right when you get there! This tub may have leaves in it (they fall from above) and cloudy water. The water should NOT smell, the cloudiness is a part of the cedar tubs charm- ash from the fire and particulate from the cedar mix together. We treat it between guests with natural products that maintain the wood (you can’t use chlorine in these tubs). We clean it regularly. Shower before using it to wash off any oils please! The outdoor shower is lovely :) Fireplace: We will leave you a bundle of wood that comes with the rental. If you need more wood you can purchase it from us or from the grocery store. We have lots of wood at the yurt and we ask you to pay $10 per bundle if you use more then we leave you inside. This is on the honor system- It takes a lot of time and resources to keep wood stocked for the property. If you don’t know how to start a fire you may want to bring an instant log with you. Please leave the lighter behind for the next guest. Sleep: we have a heating blanket for cold nights, It’s about 10 degrees cooler on our land than in town. This is a real treat during our hot summers. There will be a fan for you as well during the warm season. We live in the woods, there are bugs and wild animals on/or near the property. This is part of the country charm and should be expected. Please don't leave food outside.  Land acknowledgment: We acknowledge that our property is located on unceeded land. It is the traditional homeland of the Nisenan tribe. The Nisenan tribe is alive and active and continues to fight for federal recognition and compensation for land loss. We donate 10% of AIRBB proceeds between CHIRP which promotes the history and culture of the Nisenan tribe. https://chirpca .org/ And the Bear Yuba Land Trust which helps protect the fragile Yuba watershed. https:// www.bylt .org/is Thank you

6 nights at Terra Cultura

The Family Yurt was a pleasant stay, nicely sized, and well appointed. My brother and I stayed here for six days and enjoyed the welcoming space and well kept surroundings. The beds are comfy and it was nice to wake up to the sound of birds and breeze through the trees. There are two yurts and the bathroom close to the Family Yurt, so you will hear other people if those spots are occupied. I would recommend staying here, just make sure you have a high enough clearance vehicle to get in. A crossover, SUV, or truck would probably be fine. The main parking lot has a very aggressively angled driveway transitioning from the main drive. We had issues in our Corolla with both traction and ground clearance getting up the driveway. Filling in the transition with some 2x4s to worked ok to avoid damaging the car.

Weekend Trip to Spirit Bend

This space went above and beyond what I was expecting! Doug is a welcoming and thoughtful host. The yurt is the perfect space to wind down and the river spot is absolutely incredible! We spent most of our time enjoying the privacy of the spot and taking it all in. We loved hot tubbing underneath the stars. The perfect getaway to enjoy nature, be present, gets still have access to internet if needed. We will absolutely be coming back again.

Weekend Trip to Mariposa Institute

The Yurt was super spacious and the extra coushins were helpful with sleeping, the fan was also helpful during the hot times of the day. Had a bit of issue with the wifi on the first night but some troubleshooting resolved the issue. The meadow was amazing during the night, we hadn't seen soo many stars in a long tome it was breathtaking. Would definitely stay here again on our future trips, thanks so much Rayna for being available even when not on property.

Weekend Trip to Double Bear

I loved Double Bear. Mathilda was a super host answering all my questions in advance and then checking- in to ask if we needed anything. The Yurt Bear Hollow was spectacular. So clean! Everything impeccable! Same for bathrooms and kitchen. The dirt road is challenging first, but doable and after we did a trip to a state park and came back, it felt so much easier the second time. It is a small price to pay to be so close to Los Gatos but so immersed in the wilderness. This place has the perfect balance of rustic setting but with all the basic comforts that makes a quick weekend trip easy or a long term comfortable. The wifi worked very well. We enjoyed the fire pit and the jacuzzi. It was my first time in the area so we travelled to Big Basin state park but it is still impacted from the last fire so we went to Henry Cowell state park which was much nicer. I am recommending this place to all my friends and I hope I can come back soon. Next time, I would like to bring a great book and hang out more in the property and explore the creek. Such a great place to just relax and be.

We stayed at the Yurt for 2 nights. Hosts were very welcoming. We were surprised to see a full fridge and electricity available inside the yurt. We can attest to the Cleanest potta party in the west. Outdoor shower was amazing. Would come back again.

2 nights at Cozy Luxury Yurt @ Lazy Dog Ranch

I’m not sure what I can say about Lazy Dog Ranch that hasn’t already been said. This was my first Hipcamp experience, so I read every review, and I can confirm, they're all true. The yurt was comfortable, private, and surprisingly well equipped. We cooked all of our meals there and had everything we needed, with the possible exception of a cheese grater, but no biggie, we made do. For a yurt, I was genuinely impressed by how much was provided. One small tip: it can get pretty bright inside in the morning, so light-sensitive sleepers may want to bring an eye mask. David was a wonderful host, and even went out of his way to return something I’d left behind. We had a great stay and would absolutely recommend it.

2 nights at Cuyama Oaks Ranch

Pink Pony 2 yurt had all the views of the night sky to view the Perseid shower and see the Milky Way. The supplied pots, pans and chairs under the covered small patio and creature comforts of the comfortable bed made for a wonderful 2 night stay in mid August. Nathan was very kind and attentive to answer our questions. The new donkeys and small horse were a fun bonus to see. We will be back next year to also see the surrounding hills in all the green glory of spring.

2 nights at Cuyama Oaks Ranch

Perfect spot for stargazing! Nate's attention to detail is top notch, so many adorable and thoughtful touches at this site. The solar batteries made it so we were never left without power. Yes it's hot during the day, but soaking in the cowboy tub really helped, and the tent cooled way down at night. The animals are adorable, and Nate made sure to give us eggs for our first morning there. Beds are comfy and cozy, the yurt is more spacious than you'd think, and the donkeys provide plenty of comedic relief. Absolutely wonderful stay!!

2 nights at Cozy Luxury Yurt @ Lazy Dog Ranch

David’s hospitality was a pleasant welcome and his knowledge as well as recommendations of the was great guidance. The yurt was a beautiful and clean accommodation with unique memorable features. My friends and I were so impressed by the amazing land that the yurt sat on. Surrounded by a beautiful redwood trees and gorgeous sprawling country fields. We enjoyed our early mornings on the Adirondack chairs overseeing the beauty surrounding us. Also, the bed was super comfortable, utilize the kitchen, refrigerator, and bathroom spacious with a great shower.. We would love to stay here again in the future and recommended this HipCamp to anybody who wants a comfortable and memorable stay in Nevada City. The location was just 12 minutes to the Downtown area and six minutes to the Yuba River. We will return.

I just want to tart by saying, thank you Doug! We absolutely loved your vibe!! You made our anniversary so memorable. Every year we try something different and this was one for the books. The location is amazing. Nestled in the northern California mountains along that beautiful river was peaceful. It was everything the wife wanted; water, nature, and seclusion. The yurt was comfortable, the access to the water was so convenient. I recommend this spot if you love to be in nature. Sitting by the river looking up at the stars at night, just smoothes the soul. Doug, thank you again. We will be coming back!!
