Flicker's Nest
Very cute yurt, and great hosts
I definitely recommend staying at Erick & Sarah's yurt. It is an incredibly inviting and cozy place that is well-decorated for a relaxing getaway.
It isn't super big so it doesn't take much to keep it warm and it is set up well to be comfortable for making food, having an evening in, and sleeping. Don't expect a massive cabin where you are going to have lots of guests over, that's not what it's designed for. But for 1-4 people it's great.
Its location is also fantastic because not only is Erick & Sarah's property massive, and has a cute river flowing through it, but the Acme area is gorgeous. You are about a one-hour drive from Mt. Baker, 5 min drive from a pretty sunset view of the mountains, 40 min from town, and just a walk away from lots of woodlands.
Finally, the hosts are phenomenal. Erick and Sarah and both very nice people who explained how everything worked and checked in with us to make sure our stay went well. They were extremely helpful in providing ideas for hikes in the area as well as just fun people to chat with.
Ps: I will say, if you are unaccustomed to the outdoors do keep in mind that Acme, and this yurt, are definitely more rural than a city (which I love). With thin walls, like in all yurts, you do hear animals outside like deer, raccoon, and their big friendly dog. I feel it personally makes me feel more connected to nature, but if hearing animals around you isn't your vibe this is something to consider.
