Beautiful and secluded this property has 2 conjoined yurts, 2 fire pits, we have solar electricity, a composting toilet and a shower. it's located just a short drive from hunter mountain with so many amazing places to hike and local towns Saugerties and Woodstock. We are in a wooded area; wildlife and bugs are possible. This is a camping experience please have basic camping skills. We are completely off grid and are subject to lack of electricity on cloudy days. Two wood stoves inside the yurt for colder days. No hot water. Being subject to nature, we do have back up lighting and water/ camping bags. Running water is shut off after first freeze due to lines freezing. During the winter months there is water brought in in 5 gallon jugs for camping bags. Two designated sleeping areas; loft with a queen size bed, downstairs bedroom with full size bed. Smaller yurt is often converted to a sleeping area; we have extra sleeping 'moon mats' and modular seating.Just outside the yurt is a huge fire pit with a picnic table, and logs that can be used as seats around the pit. During the days the birds and other wild life are plentiful and beautiful to watch. At night time the sky is amazing the lack of outside artificial light illuminates the stars so beautifully. The area is full of amazing restaurants, beautiful mountain biking and hiking trails, and in the winter the ski slopes are just a short drive away.

Wonderful!!
Wonderful relaxing weekend at Nomadic Retreat!! Despite high winds and chilly nights we were perfectly comfortable. The yurt is so spacious, every pillow and bed is comfy, and the amenities are endless. Cooking on the black stone was such a fun experience too. Family of 4, kids 6 and 7 yo, everyone loved our time here, highly recommend!!

A New Years Yurt!
Thank you Janet, for starting the fire before we arrived. Due to the cloudy weather, we were limited to candle light (no electricity from solar panels), but our stay became even more romantic than imagined. The photo’s don’t due justice for the size and quality of the yurt… lots of amenities & great style. The yurt is located in a perfect spot for the town of Sagurties & Woodstock adventures.

We were a group of six and there was more than enough room for all of us. Janet was a great host, provided essentials and answered all of our questions. If you enjoy being outdoors, unplugging for a few days and getting in touch with nature this is the perfect place. I will say the only negative is a nearby train that can be heard inside the yurt about every hour. Other than that we had a great stay at the yurt!
