Peaceful Yurt on a Sweet Farm
River Yurt 1
Beautiful, peaceful retreat in a lovely yurt surrounded by sweet, friendly farm animals. We had an amazing weekend staying at Stephanie & Adam's property, they are incredible hosts! Breakfast is a MUST (Stephanie, you should sell your sourdough, soooo good!) We loved kayaking and exploring the river, there is NO ONE around! We are grateful to the hosts for making it such a nice experience. Highly recommend for a couple weekend getaway!

Idyllic farm stay
River Yurt 1
Stephanie and her family have a beautiful large property close to the bay area. The yurt is big, they have cute friendly farm animals including so many cats. I ordered breakfast, it was made with eggs laid by their own chickens.

We had a fantastic weekend at Stephanie's yurt! The yurt itself is awesome and offers a unique adventure—perfect for anyone looking to experience something a bit different. Stephanie and her family were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. My husband had a great time fishing at the nearby river, which was a wonderful addition to our stay. Plus, all the animals on the farm are absolutely adorable! We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Highly recommend!

Staying at the yurt was the perfect romantic getaway! The property and yurt was beautiful, there was clean water and a toilet next to the yurt, soft clean sheets, a bonfire pit and plenty of privacy. Benny was the absolute best boy! being surrounded by the other farm animals was beautiful and serene. The river was a short walk down the hill and the water was perfect for swimming in. Both Stephanie and her husband were very kind and friendly. Would definitely love to be back here.

River Yurt 1
The river access is amazing & so was the breakfast. It was over 100 degrees when I stayed. The air conditioning had been going but when I got there a window was completely open so it was still extremely hot & didn’t cool down until that night. I pulled up a chair & sat in front of the AC for an hour. The “toilet” is actually just a bucket with a trash bag in it. The farm animals are cute but the dogs kept me up all night barking. I didn’t realize the animals stayed right outside the yurt & you could hear them at all hours. I messaged the hosts about the dogs keeping me up (they barked until 2 am) but they didn’t do anything about it. I loved the river & the bed was cozy but felt like I paid too much money to be uncomfortable & not sleep.

I had a wonderful experience at the yurt! With 100+ degree temps during my stay, having in unit AC was pretty clutch - I was plenty comfortable at night / when I woke up. Great fire pit with plenty of wood for a night time fire (stars were incredible). I ended up getting a massage from Stephanie that was INCREDIBLE; the skillet breakfast was also A+. Overall, a great stay

This was a real treat! Very quiet and the river access is absolutely magical. The river is on private land and was perfect this time of year. We so enjoyed all of the animals and the goats were so friendly and accomodating, great energy all around and we are hoping to be back!

We had a lovely stay at the yurt! Such a beautiful property and Stephanie and the whole family were wonderful hosts. We loved the walk down to the river, building a fire, star gazing, our sweet little goat momma and baby neighbors, and waking up to the sounds of the countryside. The perfect relaxing getaway we were looking for! I definitely recommend getting the smores package ;) Also, Benny was the biggest, fluffiest, sweetest dog in the world and made us feel so safe! Make sure to bring a flashlight and some bug spray during mosquito season. Thank you for a great stay!

Idyllic farm gateway
River Yurt 1
I absolutely loved camping at Stephanie’s tent. It felt like me fairy tale with lots of wild life visiting the farm often. She and her husband are amazing hosts and very attentive. They have amazing animals on the farm as well, including the lovely ship dog Benny who will be your personal bodyguard and ensure no harm comes to you.

We had such a nice stay in the yurt! Stephanie and Adam’s property is very private (be prepared to drive a ways on an unpaved road) and so peaceful. We got to meet their farm animals and super sweet dog! The yurt itself is simple and comfortable. We stayed in mid-November and stayed plenty warm with the space heaters provided. We opted for the breakfast add-on, which I highly recommend!

Great Yurt with an even better dog!
River Yurt 1
The yurt is so cozy and perfect for a couples get away! We made a perfect little weekend of staying at the yurt and visiting nearby Apple orchards. We had a great campfire using the firewood provided, and stayed nice and warm inside the yurt. The hosts are very responsive and helpful, they made the stay seamless. Highly recommend to others! Benny - the welcome committee and security division - is the best fluffy dog you’ll ever meet.

A magnificent yurt!
River Yurt 1
We where greeted by a handsome and friendly Pyrenees, and a handful of wonderful cats. The property was easy to find. The yurt included fresh drinking water, a comfy bed, two guitars, coffee maker, and a heater. All of which to say, the camp site was very welcoming, warm, and all so cozy. Between the the great hosts, and a phenomenal hike to a river we will certainly be back!

Amazing yurt retreat
River Yurt 1
This is a magical spot and the super sweet couple who run it are straight out of a Hallmark movie. We absolutely loved our rejuvenating time in the adorable yurt, outstanding massages and delicious breakfast. 20/10 recommend! Grab a pizza from Pizza Norcia for dinner, walk on down to the river, enjoy a cozy fire under the stars and rejuvenate from life. And be sure to say hi to Benny the watch dog - he’s so fluffy and adorable.

Experience of a lifetime
River Yurt 1
Such a wonderful experience! Beautiful yurt, amazing surroundings, incredible hospitality. We loved the entire experience coming in hosts were incredible. Stephanie and her husband accommodated our unplanned early check-in. The yurt was clean nicely done, and the temperature was perfect. The dog, Benny, the goats, the cows the chickens – this is an experience you don’t want to miss out. Our little one loved it so much and she talks about it every day now. The hosts walked us to the river, which is about 5-10 minutes away. They even set the campfire for us, which was very appreciated. We opted for the breakfast next day and it was delicious. We also purchased some fresh eggs. Overall, we were very happy with our entire stay, and would love to go back here again.

Yurt Oasis

Staying at Stephanie’s River Oaks Camp was a joy. She and her partner were wonderful hosts and supplied us with everything we needed while teaching us a few things too! They made delicious breakfasts and let us spend time with their animals as well as took us to a great swimming area nearby. The room was kept cool, the views were beautiful, and I enjoyed being able to get close to the goats. They were a riot! If I’m yearning for anther weekend getaway, I’d book with them again.

Pack yurt bags and stay on a farm
River Yurt 1
First off I cannot say enough as to how welcoming and generous Stephanie and Adam were during our stay. Communication prior and up to our arrival was prompt and detailed. The directions were spot on and I found the location easy to find without issue. I had no problems driving my large camper van to the stay. The yurt was so thoughtfully set up and inviting. Bright and roomy, a cozy queen size bed takes center stage with a fully equipped coffee & tea bar I took full advantage of. The yurt is placed right next to the goat pen, which was truly the highlight of our stay as the 2 newly born kids (baby goats) were one of the favorite parts of the stay. However not second to the farms protector Benny, who is the kindest gentle giant I have ever met. A Great Pyrenees who is absolutely hilarious when he gets the zoomies. As a dog lover, he was perfect company. The property also has access to the the Cosumnes River and a very, very fun rope swing. Bring your swim suits! We took advantage of the optional farm fresh breakfast during our stay and it did not disappoint. No exaggeration, the pancakes were exactly what you envision a pancake should be. The omelets..sheesh! They were light, fluffy, & made with eggs from the farms chickens, honestly, I'd write more but I fear I'll sound like an advertisement. Just trust me, book an overnight here, pet the animals, get the breakfast, and enjoy yourself!
