Romantic

Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is romantic.

Our peaceful, off-grid property features organic gardens, fruit trees, meadows, and forested acres. The solar-powered 25-foot yurt offers comfortable glamping with a full kitchen, woodstove, and supplemental propane heat. We’re located just 7 miles from downtown Montpelier, where you can explore shops, restaurants, and the Statehouse. To the north lies the quaint village of Maple Corner, home to a public swim area, a community store, and the iconic Whammy Bar. At the end of our quiet road, you’ll find an extensive network of public hiking trails. Truly, we’re connected to everything that makes Vermont special—nature, culture, and community.The 25 foot yurt is nestled between trees, meadow, and our beautiful organic garden. Up to four guests can sleep comfortably in the double-sized futon, and king-sized loft beds. We will provide a bottom sheet. Please bring your own bedding and pillows. A full kitchen with a small fridge, oven, and sink is available, and pots and dishware are also available for your use. The yurt is a true off-grid experience, where you can take in the peace and beauty of our property. We operate off a small solar electric system, and ask that you conserve electricity whenever possible. You may (or may not) have cell reception. A weak Wi-Fi signal may be available at the yurt, or you can travel to one of the many coffee shops and stores close by. You will have access to a private composting toilet a short walk from the yurt; a cold shower is available during summer months. Our family home is located a few hundred feet from the yurt. We are happy to help you settle in, as needed, or give you privacy. Because this is our home, we do ask that you keep quiet hours between 10pm and 6am.

This was a super cozy yurt to stay the night and listen to the rain and wind while staying warm by the wood stove. Has all the basics covered and great energy. We’ll be back!

Cozy Yurt in a Peaceful Setting

Yurt With Garden Views

Teri's yurt was a delightful, charming and cozy. Everything looked just as the pictures and was true to the description. The yurt was was a nice, warm retreat on a cool and windy Vermont evening. Teri was an active and responsive communicator and her directions were detailed and easy to follow. A small vase of flowers accompanied by a letter of details about the place AND a warmed fire were additional hospitable touches that I appreciated about my stay. It was a great value for the price, a lovely visit and I would highly recommend to others! Note: This is true glamping. There is no shower available and you must be comfortable with using an outhouse. However, there is water access in the sink which allows basic personal care and ability to wash dishes. All of this was more than fine with me and I greatly appreciated my stay.

Nourishing night beneath the stars

Yurt With Garden Views

The review from my friend who stayed here: “Dear Teri and Brian, What a gift it was to stay here! Everything was lovely. I would enjoy staying here again — thank you. It was comfortable and cozy. Had everything I needed. Even enjoyed a visit from the kitty. I went and walked the trails — great recommendation. Thank you - Fachi PS - it was great having electricity and a fridge. The only thing I would add is a tea kettle. ***********£ Now a review from me (person who booked this stay as a gift to my friend): Teri was responsive and kind. She understood that I was booking the stay as a gift to a friend, and went out of her way to ensure the stay would be a success. I am so glad and grateful for her responsiveness, and for the genuine care my friend felt upon staying in Teri’s yurt. Thanks a million - Rachel
