Great spot for an overnight before a flight

We stayed in this cute yurt during a super stressful move out of state. The host was very accommodating and responded quickly to any questions we had. Parking was spacious and it was nice to be in a residential neighborhood with quick access to the airport. Would stay here again!

Comfortable and Secluded

This place was perfect for us including our puppies. They had room to run around outside where we weren’t bothering anyone else around us. I felt very comfortable and nobody was intrusive on our privacy.

Lovely Experience

Property was very cute, had a lovely outdoor area, very private. Conveniently located for me, I was traveling with my dog and this has a great space outside for her to roam around. Hosts were quick to respond to questions. Would stay here again

A hidden little gem

Pictures don’t give this place justice. I mainly reserved it for the hot tub but the whole yurt experience was so charming. Very romantic place, comfortable and clean. Would definitely stay here again. Near airport and about 15 minutes downtown. The owners set it all up for me with mood lighting and hot tub warm by the time I got there in the evening. I wish I had more time there.

Not as Expected

The place is close to the airport, which was great. Unfortunately, the pictures advertised do not match what the place is actually like. The sink in the bathroom was broken and leaking, and the futon had some random array of cushions that were supposed to be a mattress. Not horrible if you're just looking for a place to lay your head, but definitely not worth the price.

Unique property

Property is true to listing. Very clean, the patio area is inviting. Quiet, but planes fly over and it didn’t bother us at all, but may be to others. Loved the yurt and it’s decor. Located near lots of stores and restaurants. Hosts were quick to respond to questions. Would stay here again

Private Yurt Experience!

Moe’s Yurt is a very comfortable and unique experience. The Yurt has its own world behind a fence and a hedge on a large backyard that has nature surrounding it. The Yurt is so pretty and the decor is wonderful. Moe has everything you need for small kitchen cooking. Nice bed, nice futon, nice ambiance with the light streaming in from the window dome. Outside is a great patio, and he had the Hot Tub warming up for us when we got there. Didn’t use the sauna, but did heat it up and it’s perfect for just two people. I loved the space, the unique accommodations, and especially the privacy and seclusion. More Yurt is a special place for 2-3 people. Thank you so much for sharing your peaceful place, Moe!

unique experience

We knew going into our stay that it wouldn't be like staying in a hotel and that is what we were looking for. We chose to stay at this yurt for our anniversary as we wanted something different and private to spend some quality kid free time together. Overall it wasn't terrible and we are glad we gave it a chance however for the price per night expected more from our stay & wouldn't be our first choice to stay if we are in the area again. Pros: pretty private, everything needed to bbq our dinner, the sauna was small but worked well & was enjoyable, the bed was comfortable, internet available & worked well for our needs, overall was cozy. Cons: The hot tub was 1 of the main reason we booked but found the water to be very cloudy, & the liner of the tub to be discolored/slimy. Asked the host the 2nd day if the water had been checked recently, received a reply back hours later we could use another tub on the property should we want but we didn't feel comfortable with that. The shower was cold when cooler outside & only got mildly warm on the sunny morning we showered before check out. When it rained the skylight leaked & got the things we had on the chair at the end of the bed wet & leaked in the bathroom doorway as well. Although not something the owner can't control, it's little closer to the airport than we realized & the airplane noise was fairly loud if you aren't use to it. Overall a unique experience & could be amazing with a few improvements.

Not Accurately Portrayed in Photos/Description

Inside of the yurt was tidy and mainly what was seen in photos. The outside was unkept. The jacuzzi jets/lights do not work. The buttons to control the jacuzzi were mostly torn off and not legible. The cover to the jacuzzi motor was non-existent, corrosion and discarded supplies were visible inside. The grill was rusty and not cleaned out from the last people. The wood burner inside of the yurt had not been cleaned out either. The ponds were dirty and slimy. The grass was higher. The patio table was dirty. The “sauna” was a metal shed with wood inside like a sauna interior. There was a thermometer on the wall, but nothing else. Directly outside the door of it was an unplugged tipped over, small plastic space heater that I presume was supposed to be the heat source. There is a home, a barn style place, and a camper all inhabited on the property. The people that lived there were all quiet and did not bother. A thin bamboo fence separates those places from the yurt. There are neighbors on the right side and behind the yurt. Airplane and traffic noise is noticeable, but wasn’t awful. However, we did expect this being where it was located in the description. I feel like people should be aware that the pictures seem to show what this place was when it was first built. It is a lot of money spent to arrive and find out otherwise.
