This option is for guests who register together and wish to share a bed, such as couples, friends or family. The yurts are round, 12-sided wooden structures, contain a Queen size bed and are propane heated. The yurts do not contain a private bathroom, but a communal bathroom is located nearby. The yurts are rustic stand-alone structures and do not share walls with any other building, therefore they tend to be quieter and more secluded.
