Best hipcamp ever! I cannot recommend this place enough. Jenn created the most magical space to stay in among the breathtaking surroundings. Not only did the space have absolutely everything we needed, the space was decorated so beautifully and the host was more than generous. I’m planning my next trip back soon. Thank you, Jenn!!!

Jennifer’s yurt was everything the listing advertised and more. The accommodations were above and beyond what we were expecting. Then to top it off the views were spectacular and plenty of exploring can be done without once getting in our car.
Jennifer’s communication was very timely and very very thorough. She send ideas to do in the area a week before our arrival date so we could plan accordingly. She followed that with the very detailed directions so we found the place easily even though we arrived after dark.
The yurt itself was so fun and cozy. Jenifer has thought of everything. With a fully stocked kitchen, games and puzzles, and plenty of linens there was nothing we felt we could have added. She even hung a happy birthday garland making us feel that she truly thought about making our stay special. We will definitely be back again. Would love to experience the place in the snow.

It was fun to stay in a yurt. We lived hearing the rain on the yurt ceiling and walls. Jennifer was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay here.

So perfect! Was a great launching point but also a destination to hang with friends and family. Everything was laid out as if perfectly planned. Great outdoor area, but amazing inside with all the comforts you’d need, and decorated to a T! We were blown away by both the serenity of the land the and comfort of the home. So happy to have stayed there! BTW - we got there no problem in our Honda odyssey in mid July. Only wish we had more time!

Absolutely loved our stay here. The surroundings are beautiful and the yurt and property are super comfortable and clearly lovingly maintained. Beautiful and comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces.
The road is fairly rough - about 6 miles on unpaved - but our kia soul made the trip. Please note that the refrigerator does not work but can be used as an icebox (which fit our needs). The host communicated this prior to our arrival but can’t remember if it was in the listing.
We only spent two nights and I wish we had been able to spend more time here. Highly recommend.

I recently stayed at this yurt property, and it was an unforgettable experience. Powered by solar and propane, it blends rustic charm with modern amenities, providing a cozy retreat for 3 or 4 guests. The seclusion under vast open skies and surrounded by mountains was perfect for relaxation. The scenic roads and trails were a joy to explore, and the views of the mountains and valleys were breathtaking. Despite its remote feel, it's conveniently near Lava Hot Springs, with river tubing, hot springs, swimming, go-kart tracks, and zip-lining just a 25-minute drive away. A perfect spot for both tranquility and adventure!
My only suggestions are:
A lamp with an eco light blub for the center of the room and an electric icebox (sorta like the ones at the gas station that store icecream in) If it has a clear on and off policy it should last longer. Sorta like just bring your own ice blocks kinda thing so it doesn't have to run the whole time.
We will definitely be coming back next summer!

The yurt was beautiful, unique, and so beautifully decorated. Everything you could ever need was provided. The views were stunning and the wildflowers will pop in a few weeks. Jen was so helpful and great with communication. I would suggest Maple Grove Hot Springs 55 minutes away for the most peaceful and beautiful experience. It's reservation only, so no crowds.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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. :)

Lovely yurt with such incredible attention to detail! We loved having a lazy autumn morning reading by the wood stove, cooking in the massive outdoor kitchen, and star gazing by the campfire at night! Highly recommend.

This was such a unique and comfortable yurt! We were able to obtain the peace and space that comes with an off-grid stay, without sacrificing warmth, comfort, fully stocked kitchen, sink, comfy chairs, beds and bedding! We don't usually repeat our stays because we like to see new places, but there's enough to do in the area, where we barely scratched the surface. The only way we were able to tear away was by promising ourselves that we'd be back!

Jennifer's yurt is a very special trip. The yurt is completely outfitted and has every comfort and every detail has been though of, from games, bug spray, kitchen set up, bathroom. The space and land is beautiful and Jennifer was very quick to respond to the questions I had. I was looking for a beautiful, quiet retreat and I found it here. 10/10

Jennifer was a fantastic host! Directions were clear, close to activities in Lava or you can stay on site and enjoy the fire pit, grill & picnic area. Totally off grid, spotty cell service (which we were hoping to be without), outhouse was surprisingly nice, couldn’t see any neighbors. :) More than we hoped and we intend to return next year. Gurt the yurt will be a memory our family will always remember. Highly recommend!

Jennifer's place is clearly a labor of love, and she was great to communicate with.
The yurt is delightful -- it is thoughtfully put together, and has a whole secondary outdoor kitchen and lounge area. Sunset over the mountains is great, and the only sounds are the occasional moo. The place is nestled into the sagebrush, and the nicest outhouse I have ever used. The indoor composting toilet is so helpful for that middle of the night trip when you don't want to have to wake up enough to go outside. There is enough electric to run the fans, a few lights, and charge a phone or two, and you really don't need much more than that! It was a relaxing end to our 2 week van trip.
The yurt is about a half hour up a somewhat bumpy dirt/rock road. We were in a high clearance 4x4 van, and had no problems. High clearance not needed, but might be slick after a rain or a snow. We would recommend getting anything you need while in Lava Hot Springs before coming up to the yurt -- once you are there, you are not going to want to leave!

We had the PERFECT quick getaway! The yurt is more like a cabin - complete with a hot shower, soft sheet, and sweet smelling candles. It was off the grid yet cozy and comfortable. Views were amazing. We felt alone in the mountain and just 30 minutes from town. Jennifer was a wonderful host. We will return again and again.

Our family's first yurt experience, and now we dream of one of our own. Your hosts have made this off-grid lodging feel luxurious yet completely unpretentious. They've thought of everything you really need, and edited out all the nonsense from your everyday life. The outdoors is filled with birdsong, wildflowers, hum of pollinators, and breezes off the mountainside. There is a very comfy fire pit site with sofas, and a shaded outdoor kitchen. The yurt kitchen is very large and functional. The glam outhouse was the most charming we'd ever been in, especially with its mountain views. A 20 minute walk up the road leads to a creek and hiking trails near a campground. 20 minutes in the other direction is the fun-filled and relaxing Lava Hot Springs -- do not miss! - with water slides, hot spring baths, river tubing, a selection of great restaurants.

Very cozy and comfortable. Everything you need and then some. We’ll definitely come back.
A couple notes:
The dirt road has some big rocks, so you will need a car with a good 6 inches of clearance. A member of our party drives a car that rides very low to the ground and his car sustained some damage.
Also- the fridge is an ice box, like a cooler. It doesn’t stay very cold.

Jennifer’s yurt was absolutely amazing!! Cannot recommend this place enough! Jennifer provided an extremely detailed welcome book that make us confident in working all the off grid features of the yurt. If you are looking for solitude or great hiking, I highly recommend booking. We hiked up to Snow Peak from Big canyon (8.5ish miles round trip). Then we went into lava hot springs for a soak!
The yurt was super clean and had everything we needed. Very sad we had to leave but hopefully will be back!
