Nestled high in the Rocky Mountains of southeast Idaho at an elevation of 6500 ft, our yurt has magnificent views of Mt. Bonneville and the surrounding Pebble Creek Basin. Along with a handful of neighbors, within a private property recreational area, we are surrounded by the Caribou-Targhee National Forest, with vehicle access from mid-May through mid-November each year. Pebble Yurt has a 30 ft diameter with a partial loft for a total of 900 ft2 of indoor living space. You will be completely off grid, but with running hot and cold water, solar electricity, and heating and cooling features. We also feature an indoor shower, sink, and composting toilet. Bring your ATV's, mountain bikes, or hiking boots to explore the Pebble Basin. Or take a short drive to Lava Hot Springs for world-class hot pools, water slides, or white water rafting. Fishing in the Portneuf River or Chesterfield Reservoir, exploring the Chesterfield historic town site, or trying out a zipline or go-cart are other local activities. Pebble Yurt was built circa 2010 by a retiring forest service employee to the highest standards. We've used that canvas to create a unique glamping experience for our guests, with the best creature comforts available in a wilderness setting.Powered by solar and propane, this yurt property makes glamping glorious. Secluded enough for rest, relaxation and exploring miles of mountain trails, while enjoying beautiful mountain and valley views. Outdoorsy seclusion when you want it, yet convenient enough to be back in tourist town within 25 minutes where you’ll find river tubing, world class hot springs, swimming, go kart tracks, zip lining and more.

We had an amazing stay at the yurt! I can’t imagine a better place to disconnect for a couple days. The yurt was cozy and had so many thoughtful touches. Jennifer was a great host and very communicative. If you’re thinking of staying here just book it!

A beautiful retreat
I love this place! It is such a beautiful location with well outfitted accommodations. The views are absolutely amazing. Just sitting and taking it all in either from inside through the big windows or outside in the comfy chairs near the fire is so relaxing. The yurt is comfortable and the hosts have done a fantastic job providing all the info you need to make your stay a breeze.

Perfect Getaway
This was our second stay at Gertie the Yertie and it was even more perfect than the first. The host is amazing with communication and help and there’s not a thing you’ll need that’s not provided. Comfortable, cozy, quiet. Absolutely wonderful.

We had a relaxing stay at the yurt over Labor Day weekend! There are a couple of good hikes nearby. Jennifer has put together well thought out, detailed instructions about how to use all the features of the yurt (water, electricity, lights, range, etc.). When I had questions, she was great about responding quickly by text.

Yurt of our Dreams
The Yurt was so perfect and cozy! We cooked over the fire the first night and enjoyed the endless stars in the sky. After returning from lava hot springs our second night it was rainy and chilly outside so we spent the evening snuggled inside enjoying drinks in front of the wood burning stove listening to the rain hit the roof. It was 35° outside but we snuggled down comfortably in the 72° yurt! The views, cows, fall leaves, outhouse, and everything about this stay was amazing! Thank you Jennifer for such a fun weekend escaping the city!

A Glamping Dream!
Jenn's Yurt was an absolute dream! My fiancé and I had the perfect off-grid experience unwinding and feeling at one with nature. The yurt is the perfect balance of glamping with plenty of amenities, but also feeling cut off from the world and enjoying the simple pleasures of life. Everything felt homey and well cared for. All we could think about was how much our children would enjoy the experience and can't wait to come back and bring them! Jenn is a true example of what it means to be hospitable...thank you for opening up your home to us and letting us enjoy your little slice of paradise! *Also want to give a shout-out to Mountain Mayhem Rentals in Lava Hot Springs. We got to explore the many trails surrounding the yurt in an ATV rental and it was an absolute blast! They were so helpful and kind...we highly recommend doing this while you are visiting the yurt. :)
