4. Cariad Bach Yurt

40mi from Springfield · 1 site · Lodging

Cariad Bach Yurt is an off-grid yurt set in a quiet corner of our working sheep farm on the outskirts of Poultney, Vermont. Backing onto pasture and overlooking the river, it’s designed as a peaceful glamping retreat for two — a place to slow down, unplug, and enjoy the rhythms of farm life. The yurt is traditionally inspired and imported from Mongolia, where yurts have long been used by sheep-raising communities as practical, seasonal homes. That connection felt like a natural fit here. Our farm is centered around pasture-raised sheep, and depending on the time of year you may see animals grazing nearby or hear them settling in for the evening. When animals are on the farm, guests are welcome to arrange a visit. The site is private and has its own entrance, separate from the main farmyard. While we’re close to the road, the yurt sits in a quieter pocket of the property with direct access to the river. Evenings are calm, with the sound of water and the surrounding countryside. Inside, the yurt is simply but comfortably furnished, with a wood stove for heat and solar power for lighting and device charging. This is a true off-grid stay — there is no running water. Cooking is done in a separate outdoor kitchen area with a roof but open sides. It works well in fair weather and most of the year, though winter cooking does mean being prepared for the cold. A nearby propane incinerator toilet, imported from Norway, completes the setup. Access to the yurt is on foot via a short walk from the parking area, so guests should be comfortable carrying their gear. In winter, snow can make access more challenging, and water availability may be limited due to freezing temperatures. Our self-serve farm stand is open year-round and reflects the British roots of the farm, offering baked goods and farm products you won’t typically find locally. Guests staying at the yurt can arrange special pre-order offerings, including breakfast items and pasture-raised lamb or mutton for the grill. Cariad Bach Yurt is best suited for couples, hikers, and bikers looking for a quiet, nature-focused stay. Quiet hours begin at 9pm. No pets and no smoking in the buildings. We’re located about 15 minutes from Lake Bomoseen and Lake St. Catherine.

Weekend Trip to Rest Farm

We had such a lovely and relaxing time this weekend at the “Mutley” Yurt Site with our two dogs. The property is beautiful and they have done a fantastic job of building out the two sites, which are close to one another to make for a fun group trip, but separate enough to still give you privacy from one another. The yurt was fully stocked with supplies such as cooking equipment, utensils, water jug, LED lantern, propane stovetop, etc. so we were able to pack pretty lightly. We chose to come on a snowy and chilly weekend and the gas fireplace inside kept the whole yurt super toasty, even on a low setting.. so this is definitely winter friendly! Shannon and her husband were both very helpful with making sure we had everything we needed, including starting the fireplace before we arrived so the Yurt was nice and toasty for us. We would love to come back and visit again, maybe even with a bigger group since there are the two sites!

Spent a weekend catching up with friends here. The yurt is amazing, super comfortable and warm with the wood stove, easy to cook on the gas range, water nearby for cleaning up. Brought our own potable water. Nice privy. Left some extra supplies behind for the next people which seems like a well established tradition. We hiked around Welton falls to the AMC lodge, saw a black bear, hiked Oregon Mt the next day. We will definitely be looking to return in the summer.

4 nights at Willard Pond Sanctuary Retreat

This was a lovely yurt, very well appointed with all the right furniture (and not too much) and an efficient wood stove. It's on a quiet dirt road that leads to the boat launch for Willard Pond, so I could drive my kayak down but it was an easy walk when I didn't have the boat to carry. The water's very clear and looks lovely for swimming (just not in November!) and the surrounding land is an Audubon sanctuary with some well-marked trails and great views. (Warning: lots of deer ticks!!) A fantastic getaway!

Absolutely loved this spot and the Yurt. It was so toasty warm and a cozy bed. We cooked on the grill and used the Coleman stove provided. We enjoyed a 6 hour long campfire and toasted marshmallows and played Gin. Loved the furnace / stove in the yurt. The hosts were so clear and lovely. We felt lucky to stay and nest here.

Our stay at the Riley was a perfect weekend getaway. Shannon was a terrific host from the start making sure that we had everything we needed. The yurt was set up upon our arrival with a cozy gas fired stove for heating, a Coleman cook stove and most everything we might need in the way of utensils. The outdoor firepit was a perfect spot to relax. Pisgah State Park trail head entrance is just across from the campsite and was a easy walk to lots of beautiful hiking. We loved our time there, and would definitely recommend The Riley to our friends.

We greatly enjoyed our stay! The yurt, farm, and surrounding land are beautiful and peaceful.

We really enjoyed our three night stay at Trollhaugen! It was relaxing and peaceful. The setting was perfect and private though we could see and hear the farm animals across the brook. We did venture over the very cool “troll” bridge, to visit the animals. The area was beautiful and the people at the general store greeted my husband every morning as he went for coffee as if he were an old friend. Bring coffee if you want to make it yourself and get ice at the grocery store as the general store didn’t have any when we were there. Otherwise, the rustic yurt was well-equipped with everything else we needed. The bed was comfy, the eggs were delish and even with the extreme heat, sleeping was comfortable with our little fan and the windows open. The indoor bathroom with a shower was an A+ for me! My kind of camping - with shelter, a bed and a private bath.

Shannon's yurt was the perfect place to spend a rainy day. The photos on the listing are accurate. The wood stove kept us warm all day & night. (At the time of writing, they start you out with some wood for the stove and then you pay $8 a bundle after that.) The skylight at the top was all the light we needed for most of the day. And there is a state park with trails right across the street!! The food prep/cook situation was similar to car camping - a coleman double burner stove, some plates/cups, some utensils, a pan or two. If you have specific prep needs, I suggest communicating with Shannon beforehand so you all can figure out if they can provide it or you oughta bring it. Shannon was very helpful and communicative! Everything we needed, she was able to help us out, including finding the house, which was a little tricky. It's not stated on the listing, and I think it's helpful to know: you will need a 4wd or all wheel drive vehicle to drive up to the yurt, especially during any precipitation or icy conditions. We did not have that so we parked at the bottom and walked up the hill - somewhere between 50 and 100 yards. *This site is not ADA accessible* Highly recommend Shannon's yurt if you have no accessibility needs and are down for a low amenity glamping situation!! I would definitely love to return!!
