Loved It!

We have wanted to stay in a yurt for awhile and couldn’t be happier. Bill is great and the yurt was just as he said it would be. We would recommend this stay for anyone looking to relax in the nature.

The most magical honeymoon

This yurt was absolutely PERFECT for our honeymoon! My husband and I stayed here for 2 days and 3 nights, and not only was it absolutely gorgeous and secluded, Bill is so hands on and helpful, his kindness made this experience infinitely better. We can’t wait to plan our return trip!

Great get away

We stayed only 1 night, and the yurt was charming, and clean and everything was as advertised. The deck was great-- very relaxing to sit amongst the trees. Location was perfect for a visit the Elder Blossom View winery in New Bloomfield--a fun place, open only on weekend evenings, for music and elderberry drinks and products. Hope to come back and visit again soon!

Wish we could’ve stayed 2 nights.

An interesting and quaint little property. It was fun discovering all the little treasures that make this property one of a kind. It had all the comforts of home…well except a flush toilet. But even the outhouse was nice. A quiet and relaxing atmosphere.

Less then expected but cute

Clear communication in details of the amenities would have been helpful and the outhouse would not have been a shock. Overall it clean and decorated cute. It was comfortable. Maybe getting a larger air unit might be helpful. Most all events we did were late night or over night. We stayed in August it was very hot during the day. Thank you the opportunity for staying.

Magic in the woods.

The Yurt was amazing. Everything you needed to be very comfortable and relaxed during the stay. You van spend an hours just looking at everything inside and out. The sound of rain and owls will pit you to sleep. Even my teenage kids put down the devices and had a blast. 10 out of 10. We will be coming back, bit for a longer stay. Thank you so much Bill for helping us create some amazing memories!

Cute and eclectic. The only thing we had to complain about was, it was freezing in there with only a small space heater to warm us in November… it was cold!!

Amazing Magical Place

Absolutely love the yurt and the surrounding property! Bill was an excellent host and I made good friends with the Yurt cat that roams the outside of the property. Took a nice stroll around the property while sipping on some excellent coffee. Ran into Bill during my stroll and had a very pleasant conversation! If you’re looking for a peaceful and positive energy space to rest your weary soul, this is the place for you!!

Interesting Unique Experience

My first VRBO booking, booked for wife's birthday and to eat at nearby Claysville Store. Address took us right to owner's property driveway, signs posted The toilet is a vault, but it is uniquely decorated and clean. Take time to look at the decor and read all the notes left by prior guests. Fall would be nest time to visit.

The perfect getaway!

We had such a cozy and memorable stay! What was planned as a rest stop between 2 family get-togethers became the highlight of our weekend! The yurt was so warm, welcoming, and well-appointed! The personal touches and care Bill put into the details make it stand out beyond the unique structure. We can’t wait to come back when we can stay even longer!

Great stay!!

My husband, sister in law & brother in law all stayed at Bill’s Yurt. It was great! We had plans to go to the Missouri State penitentiary for a ghost hunt/tour. Bill was great at making check in easy, his directions were spot on, he gave recommendations for places to eat & even left a little note in the yurt with chocolate which we all thought was the sweetest thing. This was honestly one of the most laid back VRBO stays all of us had stayed in. Bill literally made everything so easy & communication with him was even easier. If we ever come back to the area we will definitely be trying to stay there again.
