Sleep in a unique yurt near the Idaho Panhandle National Forests
This 14-foot rustic yurt is located near the Idaho Panhandle National Forests, and can accommodate three guests for a peaceful getaway to the woods. Set on a 13-acre property full of towering birch trees, the yurt provides an idyllic setting in which guests can reconnect to the great outdoors while enjoying the comforts of a real bed, running water, electricity, heating, and cooking equipment.
Inside the yurt, guests will find a queen-size bed, a writing desk, a wood-burning stove, and a kitchenette surrounded by latticed walls and a wooden floor overlaid with rugs, all of which combine to create a cozy, elegant, and rustic atmosphere. The kitchenette is equipped with a two-burner stove, a mini-fridge, a kettle, pots and pans, plates, and a sink connected to a gravity-fed water system, along with items such as pots, pans, plates, and glasses. Other amenities include a portable heater unit and a Thermarest bed, which is available for guests bringing a child.
Outside, guests will find a porch with a rocking chair, an outhouse, and an outdoor bathtub/shower. Linens, towels, and a pair of robes are provided. A guest parking space is situated about 50 yards from the yurt—close enough to facilitate unloading, while far enough to leave the yurt's natural setting unspoiled.
