Taste forest yurt

Paula and Benoit were the perfect hosts! Their connection to the land seeps through everything that they do there. We came up for the eclipse and we could have not been in a better place for it! Paula and Benoit facilitated the perfect eclipse experience, setting the tone with traditional indigenous song and poetry. Benoits magnificent knowledge of the stars and planets shined during his presentation, and we felt perfectly primed for the experience as the moon drew closer to the sun. The yurts were the perfect balance between living with nature and having the modern comforts we expect. I would absolutely return for a weekend getaway or a vacation to unplug from the world and plug back in to nature. Thank you Paula and Benoit for an amazing experience!
