The Yurt at Solar Solitude sits behind the barn, and the 8.4 acres Solar Solitude occupies is available for exploring. The adjacent George Washington National Forest is ideal for hiking, and the Lost River State Park is just minutes away. Sit in the living room and enjoy the quiet beauty of nature while feeling the warmth from the wood stove or gaze up at the stars through the dome, or out on the expansive deck. WIFI works well for those who prefer to stay connected and/or telework! Enjoy walking the new walking paths and the waterfall and pond! The Solar Cottage on the property is occasionally occupied. Please ensure you do not leave children or pets unattended in the yurt during the summer. Temperatures can get pretty high. Also, it’s a clamping experience so the air conditioner won’t really do much in the heat of summer so I recommend you plan day trips during the heat of the summer day.

    Very cool experience. A cozy Yurt. I would stay again. Would love to see the property when it’s complete. To unwind before and after exploring, I recommend taking a light-weight TV with you. We did and it was the perfect decision. Take your own amenities. The kitchen desperately needs an updated Brita (or Brita like) pitcher. Stairs to the top level bed are super dicey - I imagine that’s a Yurt situation across the board. The owner (hello!) did say he might be there at the adjoining cottage doing work, and maybe he was but it was impossible to know because at least 3 men showed up Tuesday and stayed the whole day, night, and into the next day- our last morning there. It did not sit well with us that men were working well into the late night/early morning (midnight, 1am etc.) while we were unwinding and sleeping. One professing he stays at the Yurt often… maybe he had a spare key we knew nothing about. Anyways, for safety & ease I wouldn’t have multiple people out at the property burning debris and other types of manual labor while the Yurt is being occupied. 2 pints of ice cream were left in the freezer - enjoy!!!

    It was awful, so hot and humid. It’s false advertisement on the AC part because when I stayed it was 85+ degrees, fans half ass worked and place had dead BUGS everywhere even on the bed. I even woke up to a roach laying on the floor by the bathroom. The grill is ONLY charcoal and would not light no matter how much lighter fluid you used. I’d do no stars but it’s impossible unfortunately. DO NOT STAY HERE

    My wife and I absolutely loved our stay. It had us simultaneously as comfortable as can be and connected with the valley. I’ve stayed in this area several times and this place takes the cake as the best experience. We absolutely did not want to leave. This place is engrained in a small community with houses every couple hundred yards, but privacy was no issue. It has great views of the valley from the fire pit where we spent the majority of our time when we weren’t hiking nearby. If you stay here I hope you have the pleasure of experiencing the rain hitting the yurt while staying dry and cozy inside.

    I really enjoyed the yurt, seems hard to believe all those 2x6 rafters are just bearing down on a steel cable. It works though! And the modern IKEA decor really classes it up. Super cool place to call home for the weekend!

    The yurt was perfect for a quiet weekend getaway for two. Communication with the host, Russ, was outstanding; very responsive and very detailed.

    Had a great stay- very thorough check-in and instructions, yurt was super cool. To be out in the country and still have wi-fi and a shower was right up my alley. Fridge, appliances, and peace and quiet. Owner was very responsive and friendly as well. Loved it!

    Every was nice a clean when we arrived. The only thing i can give any kind of criticism to is the air conditioning. It way under powered. If we were to have rented in the dead of summer, I would have been upset do the fact of it ran all the time and cooled it off by maybe 10 degrees. There were time where it was cooler outside than inside.

    Book it. You won’t regret it! This was a solo trip for me to travel around the area mountain biking. The place itself has everything you need and it really unique. Awesome property to relax on and the surrounding areas are beautiful to wake up to.

    My spouse and I spent the weekend at the Yurt . Everything was perfect . We had a lot of rain but it didn’t stop us . We hiked the state park , we had coffee outside in the morning and we took long walks on the property. We enjoyed the wildlife and the area . We will be back again .
