The best yurts in Montana

Name: Montana
Address: Montana
Rating: 4.891

From luxury glamping sites to quiet state parks, yurt camping brings you close to nature in Montana while retaining a few luxuries like furniture, wifi, kitchenettes, and even full bathrooms and running water in some. Enjoy a warm bed or bunk next to the crackling of a wood stove in one of the many Montana yurts throughout the state. Big Arm Flathead Lake State Park and Jewel Basin near Kalispell are two favorites, but you will find no shortage of backcountry yurt camping opportunities near places like Glacier National Park and Yellowstone National Park. The canvas walls allow you to hear the chirping birds and hooting owls while insulating against a variety of weather conditions. Whether you’re near Missoula, Whitefish, Bozeman, or Big Sky, it’s likely you can step out your front door to greet hiking trails, rushing rivers, Hot Springs, and the dramatic mountain scenery that makes Montana unique. The very best yurt camping is an experience you won’t soon forget without the need to set up a tent and sleep on the ground.

Coram, MT · 7 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

The Mooseshroom is an awesome camping community that is just 7 miles from the west side of Glacier National Park. Community fire pits near the Commons are a short walk from whichever tent spot guests are assigned. The Commons also houses the bathrooms and inside/outside kitchen areas. There is plenty of seating, hammocks and picnic tables for guests to use as well. We also have two yurts available for booking on our property. The Mooseshroom is a licensed business that is limited to hosting 18 guests per night. Guests should expect a quiet, peaceful camping experience with plenty of room to enjoy their surroundings. ***This property is adjacent Highway 2 and there is a fair amount of road noise. There's also a train that's fairly close. The noise kinda comes with the territory, guests are also 10 minutes from the west entrance to the park. The noise does tend to subside considerably at night, but for those bothered by this type of noise, you might consider an alternate location. Most guests are truly fine with it.

Zortman, MT · 1 site

For generations, this stretch of land where the Judith River empties into the Missouri has been a gathering place—for Indigenous peoples, for the Corps of Discovery, and for the ranchers and explorers who followed. It still draws people to it in a way that is hard to explain until you are standing at the confluence, looking upstream. American Prairie has built three small huts here—each distinct, each anchored to a chapter of this place's story. They are comfortable without being fancy; the design intentionally keeps your attention outside, where it belongs. The surrounding landscape rewards curiosity: the Big Sag, a vast open depression visible from the property; miles of biking and hiking roads; Judith Landing State Park downstream; and the White Cliffs section of the Wild and Scenic Missouri River Breaks—one of the most dramatic landscapes in Montana—accessible by river float. In September and October, bull elk gather in the river bottoms and their bugles carry through the dawn. As cows move through the golden cottonwood corridors, it provides one of the best elk-viewing opportunities in the region.

In September and October, the river bottoms come alive as bull elk gather for the rut. Their haunting bugles carry through the crisp dawn air as cows move through the golden cottonwood corridors. It remains one of the premier elk-viewing opportunities in the entire region.

Gardiner, MT · 2 sites

Jardine Retreat camping area sits on a unique and beautiful piece of property in the heart of Jardine, Montana. Bear Creek winds through the property, with several great places to sit by the water and enjoy the surroundings. Plans are in the works for a small retreat center on the property, and in the meantime, we welcome people to camp at this amazing location and enjoy the relaxing space. Your host & owner of Jardine Retreat, Zondra is a massage therapist with a massage studio right next to the camping location. Jardine Retreat guests get priority booking for massage appointments. On the downstream side of the camping area, we have a large, 16’ x 24’ wall tent outfitted with two cots, a sectional couch, table and wood stove (no bedding provided, please bring your own sleeping bags). You can either sleep in the wall tent, or set up your own tents and use the wall tent as a lounge area. The wall tent sits right on the bank of Bear Creek, with a lovely view of the creek right out the front door, and the sounds of water to lull you to sleep. Due to bear safety, we do not allow cooking in the wall tent – please use the creek side cookshack. On the upstream side of the camping area, we have one dispersed RV site, with no hookups. RV campers need to be self contained, with their own toilet. There is a communal cookshack pavilion right on the creek, with a BBQ grill, counter & picnic table where you can cook, enjoy your meals & relax by the creek. We take bear safety very seriously, and do not allow any food or drink (besides water) in the wall tent – please do your cooking and eating at the cookshack. Food & other bear attractants must be secured in your vehicle at night, and cookshack area must be cleaned up immediately after use. Not all of Jardine Retreat is part of this new camping area. We ask that you please stay in the designated camping space and do not access construction zones, out buildings & other marked off areas of private property. There are fences and signs designating where you cannot enter. We are currently remodeling an 1880’s historic cabin and turning it into a bath house for you to use next time you camp here – but currently there are no usable facilities & no access to any of the cabins on the property.

Get away from it all when you stay under the stars! Located on a working cattle ranch in the secluded Flint Creek Valley, our hand built ranch offers 360 degree breathtaking mountain views and lush fields of free range grazing livestock. Come experience a true Montana “glamping” experience, away from all the hustle and bustle where you can unwind and take in the sunrises and sunsets in beautiful Big Sky Country. We have our brand-new yurt available as well as a 30amp plug-in. Your stay can be a simple stay, or for extra fees can include farm-2-table meals (with reserve wine pairings if desired), guided fly/ice fishing experiences, short backpacking trips and backcountry skiing! Conveniently located 45 mins outside Missoula, 25 mins from Philipsburg and 50 mins from Discovery Ski Mtn. Some things to note: this is a working ranch, meaning there are cows and family members tending to the animals (not in the yurt’s private area, but surrounding it); in the winter, the concrete pad the yurt stands on can be slippery, so please be aware and utilize the provided ice melt in the bucket by the side door when needed. In spring, the ranch can quite muddy; please keep vehicles on the rock driveway only. Boot trays are provided by both doors. Extra cleaning fees apply if pets are staying in the yurt.

Alberton, MT · 1 site

Our land is 24 acres set against Cinderella Mountain, facing the Clark Fork River. There are two houses and a yurt on the property. The yurt is available for rent on this site to stay the night in, 8 guests maximum. **For gatherings and up to 20-person events, please visit our website, wildlightmontana.com. Address: The maps program on HipCamp is outdated and our address, which was created during the Covid lockdown, does not show up here. If you use Google Maps you can search "Wildlight Montana" to find us or please direct message me for the address. The yurt is a beautiful open space utilized weekly for local yoga classes and private events. The space is therefore not set up with bedding; guests should bring their own camping pads, cots, sleeping bags, etc. A pro to staying here is that the space comes stocked with yoga props for stretching in the evening while you arrive, sitting and gathering, or maybe doing a private yoga class before you leave in the morning. Feel free to message us and book a private sound therapy, Reiki or yoga session while you are at the property! There is nice view of the valley surrounding, and a trail leading up into the woods behind the yurt to walk on. Wild turkeys, deer, elk and eagles right outside your door. There is a woodstove inside for cooler nights that we can instruct folks who feel comfortable to use, and a small firepit out front. Facilities: Outside, in front of the yurt, there is a back-to-back outhouse and hand washing station available for guests, stocked with toilet paper, paper towels and hand soap. An insulated out-building sits just to the west of the yurt entrance, right where the dirt driveway turns toward the yurt itself when you drive up. The out-building is equipped as a kitchenette, and includes a refrigerator, electric kettle and coffee maker. Please note: there is no running water inside this building, however we will have a 5 gallon jug of well water set up in a water dispenser for you to access there. We ask guests to clean up after themselves in these spaces. The handwashing area is set up for rinsing off dishes while you're here as well. We will make sure to provide a dish tub, cleaning supplies, enough dishes, utensils and mugs for up to 8 people (or compostable picnicware if necessary at the time of rental). Note about the train: There are train tracks that run along the river in front of our property. The tracks are dropped down low enough that you can just see the top of the train, with trees also blocking the sound. The train will only sound its horn here if there are animals on the tracks, a fairly rare occurrence after four years living here. All in all, it isn't bothersome feature to most who stay, and we've had positive feedback from renters. It still feels fair to note.

Livingston, MT · 1 site

Relax in your cozy yurt with stunning views of the Bridger and Crazy Mountains! Just 10 minutes from Livingston, 35 minutes to Bozeman, and one hour from Yellowstone Park, our eco-farm retreat offers a blissfully quiet setting with amazing views, incredible stargazing, and optional up-close encounters with our farm animals. Unwind on the deck at the picnic table or take a stroll around the property to meet our friendly emus, sheep, chickens and goose!. The site is set on open prairie land, just a short 50-yard walk from your parking spot, and includes your very own luxury, odor-free composting toilet. Drinking water is provided, but please note there is no shower at this time. A solar-powered generator is available for charging devices or powering the hot plate for cooking. A propane barbecue is also available on the deck for your use! Access to the property is on a dirt road that can be rough at times. It is fully accessible in a 2wd vehicle but higher clearance is sometimes helpful and more comfortable. I live on the property in the house with my wife, Magali, and one or both of us may be present during your stay.

Weekend Trip to North American RV & Yurt Village

Great place to stay! We went with the yurt, and it was very clean. The facilities were also cleaned early every morning, which was greatly appreciated. The road noise and trains can sometimes be a bit much late at night, but that is no fault of the property owners, nor is it isolated to this one lodging location. Everyone along this main road will deal with the same, so bring earplugs! Huge bonus is that this place is right outside Glacier NP, so it saves you a ton of time instead of driving from Kalispell proper.

2 nights at Yellowstone Yurt Eco Farm Stay

To say this was a wonderful experience is an understatement. Lucas and Magali were so sweet, responsive, and attentive to every detail. The actual Yurt is UNREAL. Glamping without the pretentiousness and unnecessary environmental harm. Absolutely beautiful and spacious. We got there very late the first night but were easily able to locate the parking space, yurt, and bathroom. In the morning we were absolutely stunned at how beautiful the farm/view was- we almost cancelled our trip to Yellowstone just to hang out. The second morning we got a tour of the farm and even got to cook some eggs from the farm in the yurt- something so special and unlike any bnb/hipcamp we’ve been to. The north entrance to YS (and my personal favorite) is only about 30-40 minutes away so it was pretty convenient. Cell service was great, wifi available, clean and spacious, all cooking supplies, generator, and the true feeling of being off the grid and relaxed. The worst part was having to leave!

3 nights at Lost Paddle and Pole

We spent 3 nights in the yurt here. It rained quite a bit and the temperatures got pretty chilly, but the yurt had an electric heater, that kept us more than comfortable. 2 adults, 2 children under 10 and our dog. We had plenty of room outside to cook and hang out. The yurt was thoughtfully arranged to feel plenty spacious and comfortable for the 5 of us. You cannot beat the location of this hipcamp. We spent 3 days in the park, but it is conviently close to Kalispell and Whitefish as well. We will definitely stay again.

I am very grateful to my past self for unintentionally arranging my travel plans such that I was able to spend a leisurely afternoon & evening plus a nice slow morning enjoying all that The Mooseshroom has to offer. Terri was an incredible host, and my little dog and I felt so welcome and relaxed. It was truly a rejuvenating stay and a must-visit in the Glacier area.

Terri’s Yurt and hospitality made for a perfect base camp on our trip to Glacier National Park! The yurt and common areas were clean, comfortable, and well-kept. For two adults with a pretty significant amount of hiking gear, we felt like we had plenty of space. The quick drive to the west entrance of the park was a huge plus! Highly recommended!

2 nights at Sanctuary Farm Yurt Glamping

We loved our time at Sanctuary Farm. The farm itself is on a private road, off a minor country road in a heavily treed area - The drive there is spectacular. You know you are in for something special! The yurt was placed well away from the owner's home, which gave lots of privacy and the night sky is DARK, so perfect for stargazing. The composting sawdust outhouse was a short walk from the yurt & surprisingly pleasant - no odor or flies and plenty of ventilation. 1000 times nicer than a port-o-potty. The solar heated camp shower provided by the host worked great. Just be sure to shower in the evening after the water has had all day to heat up! The optional breakfast was delish - definitely worth the cost & we ate out for our other meals, so never used the outdoor kitchen. We enjoyed our time here & would definitely recommend it to others seeking a stay off-the-beaten path.
