Private, romantic 720 ft yurt on dead end road 3.5 miles from Blue Ridge Parkway

It was wonderful! The property was beautiful! We will definitely be back.

The yurt and the entire experience were everything I seek in a vacation rental and yet rarely find—immaculate, beautifully arranged, carefully and thoughtfully stocked, everything in excellent repair and in perfectly working order, in a safe, quiet, extremely dog-friendly environment. Everything about the process was flawless; communication with the owner was fabulous, check-in couldn't have been simpler, clear and very reasonable instructions were provided, and we felt completely at ease, comfortable, and at home. The yurt itself is gorgeous—full of space and light, with lovely fixtures and furnishings. The grounds are also very well kept—a fully fenced-in yard, trimmed lawn, pretty plantings, and a fire pit complete with cozy string lights. It was peaceful and quiet and we loved it. Already looking forward to going back!

The Yurt is even better than the pictures of the property . My dog loved the fenced yard and deck. As a Solo traveler this was just what I needed to balance mind, body, spirit. Julia and Harry are wonderful hosts, very warm and personalble. The Yurt has so many unique features,you can tell that the hosts put a lot of thought into making this an outstanding vacation rental.

Perfect weekend away to relax. The yurt has everything you need for a calm retreat. Close to be parkway. The hosts have everything you might need as a guest. The pup also love the space to run around, and we knew she was safe

We loved being at this beautiful mountain Yurt built lovingly by the hosts with every attention to detail with particular attention to dog friendly couples. It’s so rare to find such a lovely place so welcoming to caring dog friendly folks. Thanks again Julia and Harry … we will be back!

This was a truly quiet and peaceful haven for the two of us. Just minutes from the Blueridge Parkway. Although it was cold outside, the owner had it cozy and warm for us when we arrived. It was equipped inside with everything you could ever need. The kitchen and bathroom were beautiful and modern. We loved going out into the fenced in backyard and listen to the quiet peace of the woods that surrounded us. At night the absence of light pollutions allowed us to see the most stars we have ever seen. The owners went out of there way to make sure we the best stay and everything we needed. We have been coming to the area since 2007 and this was the best place we have ever stayed. We will defiantly be going back! To the owners: Thank You!

My spouse and I had a wonderful time at Julia's yurt. She and her husband have thought of all the things one might need to enjoy their time there. Our pups loved the fenced in yard and we loved sitting by the firepit. We will be back!

Julia & Harry are wonderful host! The yurt was so cozy and clean. Dan of Meadows has so many wonderful things to do. We would highly recommend staying here and visiting primitive coffee, poor farmers market, chateau morrisette winery, Mayberry trading post. We hope to be back one day!

Wow!!! This yurt was amazing and our first time in a yurt. All the comforts of a nice cabin but in a round yurt. The fenced in deck and back yard was great for our fur babies.

The property was amazing and so beautiful! Everything was set up so nice and well maintained. Clean, up to date and ready for when we arrived. The host were AMAZING and look forward to going back again

We enjoyed a weekend away celebrating our 20th anniversary. The yurt was a unique comfortable experience. We enjoyed the peaceful location. There was plenty to do in the area and many great places to eat.

We had a wonderful time escaping the Georgia heat in this outstanding yurt in the Blue Ridge Mountains! I've never seen any other listing for a yurt with all the comforts of home. Harry and Julia really went all out on the design and construction of this home. We had never stayed in a yurt before so, it was fun to have a unique experience. We've probably spoiled ourselves on yurts though, because I doubt any other would measure up to this one. We loved the panoramic views of nature from the living area/kitchen. Our dog loved having a nice level grassy fenced in yard where she could run and play off leash. We also couldn't get over how quiet it was outside at night! I guess in The Meadows of Dan even the wildlife and insects go to bed at sundown. The yurt is close to area attractions like the Blue Ridge Parkway, Rocky Knob Recreation area (and other trails), wineries, Mabry Mill, etc. I highly recommend reading the book in the yurt about the history and people of Rock Castle Gorge and visiting it. The lower part of the Rock Castle Gorge trail can be accessed from CC Camp road off of Hwy 8 if you are like me and are 0% mountain goat and don't want to hike down 1,000 feet from the visitor center. All in all the stars really aligned for us on this vacation experience. It really was the best of both worlds of camping and home! Communication with the host Julia was great and the yurt was tidy and well stocked. Book it! Go! Enjoy!!

The place was a beautiful peaceful getaway. The property was clean and had all basic necessities and more. The book showing the building process was great and the owners were great at communicating with all needed information and any inquiries. The location is about 40 minutes from a pottery (chrysanthemum pottery iirc), a gorgeous trout stream is also down the road, the blueridge parkway is nearby and even a chocolate factory. All in all it was one of the most memorable mountain stays because of location and the beautiful yurt.

The yurt was beautiful... well thought out and has everything you need. The owner was a delight to rent from. And the location was secluded but also had many nearby trails to hike.

It has a tremendous view, and it’s very quiet and very peaceful definitely would book again in the future and plan to
