## Overview

Our old growth temperate rain forest homestead begins the wild and uncut wilderness that extends 40 miles to the Canadian boarder and beyond just as far. Before us it was part of Cascadian Farm (the organic food brand which still operates a lovely ice cream, esspresso, and berry stand adjacent to us), and before that it was one of the first farms this deep into the Cascade Range supplying food for the crews building the dams. 

We offer both a yurt and tree house. 

You will be on our small farm/homestead that is backed up to the Mount Baker National Forest with undisturbed forest all north all the way to the Canadian border to the north, Baker lake to the north west, and to the North Cascades National park to the North east. The Skagit River flows to the south of us.

If you like freezing cold glacier water, we'll provide you with a map where you can walk down to the river to cool off at a safe swimming hole.

Guests love staying here "Such a glorious and relaxed stay. The yurt really was a palace, it was so spacious and had many thoughtful amenities. We hiked on the mountain, forded a river and played with Hiland cows, all within walking distance of the yurt. I was worried that it would be cold but we were toasty and were even able to cook full course meals. Terry and Erin were the perfect hosts, responsive and yet non-instrusive. Thank you so much for letting us have this experience!"

> The Forest Farmstead yurt is a DREAM. If you like the feel of public cabins/huts - think MTTA huts and WA fire lookouts- this is perfect for you. It was raining almost all weekend so we mostly stayed inside the yurt and played lots of games, cooked hot pot, and celebrated a birthday. When it was sunny, we explored the property, picked fruit from the orchard, said hi to the chickens, and enjoyed the view of golden misty hillsides. The wood stove + ample wood supply kept the yurt toasty warm, as did the electric blankets and lots of linens. The beds were comfy, and we fit 17 total overnight with…

> The yurt was a great place to stay while we visited the North Cascades this weekend! Centrally located, the yurt offered an elevated camping experience - nestled into the woods on a private farm with plenty of beautiful natural surroundings. The yurt came with everything we needed: a wood stove for heating, a small kitchen area with a sink and water dispenser, a mini fridge & freezer, cookware, utensils, a gas stove, a large dining table, 3 beds with lots of blankets (+heated blankets), and room dividers for changing/privacy. We did not use the media corner but there were plenty of board games…

> The yurt was so cozy and peaceful! There were a ton of blankets and an electric heater which kept it nice and cozy. An electric kettle for us to make coffee in the morning and a gas stove to cook soup on. The bathroom is a lil composting shed nearby, a very short walk which was really convenient and you get to see amazing views of the nearby mountain. The birdsong and rain noises outside the yurt made for a really relaxing and peaceful time! We would definitely stay again:)
