Shenandoah Yurt is a one-of-a-kind luxury retreat perched in the serene seclusion of the mountains. You’ll find no compromises with respect to premier cabin-like construction, modern amenities, a hot tub, wood-burning stove, archery, EV charger, sizable elevated deck, pool table, board games and so much more! This unique pet-friendly Shenandoah Cabin / Yurt is nestled 1 mile away (as the crow flies) from Shenandoah National Park. Experience #YurtLife — just 2 hours away from Washington DC!

Constructed using the finest materials and significant attention to detail, this space will invite you and your family and friends to immediately make yourselves at home. Furnished with plenty of modern conveniences, the Shenandoah Cabin / Yurt sets out to provide a unique experience offering comforts akin to those of a chic boutique hotel. Whip up an omelette with the dozen fresh organic local eggs awaiting you, embrace your inner yogi with a morning routine on the large deck, or soak in the outdoor hot tub under a starry night sky—the choice is yours! As our property was designed with nature in mind, we also provide an EV charging station for those in need. All at an elevation of over 2,500 ft! 

Beyond this, the property boasts a dependable climate control system, wood-burning stove, hot tub, WiFi (full disclosure that while speed tests show up to 100mb, the internet might be intermittent due to the yurt’s remote location), and a smart TV with Disney Plus and Netflix. We also have a PlayStation 5 with 4 controllers and various games, smart speakers, a dedicated workspace, a pool table, and a variety of board games. With respect to outdoor activities, please know that we also offer e-bike rentals that allow you to reach the national park in approximately 15 minutes.

Living Space & Fully Equipped Kitchen

The yurt boasts a full kitchen complete with an island, dining table, cookware, utensils, refrigerator with icemaker, dishwasher, electric stove, microwave, multicooker/rice-maker, and a Nespresso coffee machine! You’ll have everything you need to engage in your morning and evening rituals, and, of course, wine glasses to sip vino during your afternoon wine and cheese happy hour!

With respect to design, the Shenandoah Cabin / Yurt features an open floor plan living room with vaulted ceilings, windows offering panoramic views, a glass dome, and a loft with a pool table. A washer/dryer combo unit is located on the main level for your convenience.

Exterior & Activities

We offer powerful 750W E-Bikes for rent at $50/day per bike. You can reach Shenandoah National Park in 15 minutes without much sweat and ride the Skyline Drive and trails for hours. All black and fat-tire. All other amenities are free to use, including the Kainokai traditional handmade recurve longbow (40lb) with a 4ft target, Lever 2 EV charger, Hot Tub, Grill, Firepit, and a Cornhole game.
