Glamping with a pack of dogs at your door step. Enjoy a beautiful spacious yurt bordering the Tahoe National Forest in a great location with access to nearby lakes (summer) and ski hills (winter). *Winter* snowshoe out the back door, cozy up by the warm wood stove, or use the yurt as a home base while you ski one of the nearby ski hills (20 minutes from Sugar Bowl). *Summer* enjoy our local hiking trails or one of the many swimming holes just a short drive away. We are home to a pack of 12 working sled dogs, so enjoy morning and evening howl sessions from your large deck while drinking your coffee or sipping your wine.Our 'off-grid' 24 foot yurt is equipped with a sleeping loft, living room futon, full kitchen to cook in (propane range and fridge), wood fire stove, solar power and a composting toilet. As a 'dry' cabin, we haul all water in for your use. It is located in a private setting within a three minute walk from your parking spot, with a large deck that overlooks our seasonal creek. You can enjoy walking out into the back woods bordering the Tahoe National Forest, or take a drive down the road and hike into a waterfall and swimming hole. We are situated in a beautiful forest and are home to a pack of 12 sled dogs. Enjoy getting serenaded by morning and evening howling sessions. The dogs run and play in a 2-acre fenced yard separate from the yurt, so you can either join us for a play session, or watch from a distance. Unfortunately we do not allow visitors to bring their own dogs at this time. We are conveniently located a few minutes off the I-80, and only 25 minutes west of Truckee. Cook your meals in the yurt's kitchen, or walk up the road to the Rustic Table Restaurant for a meal at the lodge.

The Reimer Pack Yurt
A perfect spot for a romantic snowy weekend! The woodfire stove kept us warm during a snowstorm, and the location was perfect for ski slope access and wandering the snowy woods. Jesika was thoughtful and communicative throughout our stay, clearing a parking spot pre-arrival and keeping the wood stove stocked. Thank you for such a wonderful stay - would 10/10 stay here again.

The Reimer Pack Yurt
Our family had the perfect Christmas getaway at this cozy yurt. It comfortably slept the four of us, with plenty of room to relax and for the kids to play. The wood furnace kept us warm and toasty even as we were surround by a winter wonderland. The towering snowy trees and sparkling icicles made for a truly breathtaking white Christmas. We loved the peace and freedom to explore the beautiful grounds. It was a quiet, majestic retreat—perfect for reconnecting with nature. The walk to the yurt was close but a workout due to the snow. Sleds were provided to help carry our belongings, which was very helpful. However, we found we overpacked and could have brought less knowing we could dry clothes by the fire- which I would definitely recommend. The kitchen was well-stocked with an oven, stove, and refrigerator, making meal prep easy and enjoyable. For families, we suggest bringing disposable plates and cups since washing dishes in the small foot-pump sink can be tricky with a larger group. For couples or solo travelers, the provided dishware is more than sufficient. Our kids (ages 4 and 10) had a blast exploring and playing in the snow. They both called it the best vacation ever! Jesika was a wonderful host—friendly, responsive, and accommodating. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend this yurt for a peaceful and unique getaway. We’re already planning to return in the spring or summer to see it in a different season!

A great re-set

If your thinking about booking this, do it. Fantastic stay, fantastic hosts, the most relaxed we’ve felt in a long time (let’s be honest, probably years) a place you’ll want to come back to. ❤️
