Relaxing

We absolutely loved our stay at the yurt! It was so private, quiet, and peaceful while being close enough to town that we could visit for a late lunch/early dinner. It had everything we needed. Marcy is an amazing host, and promptly answered every message! We look forward to returning in the fall (and hopefully earlier!)!

Awesome Glamping Experience!

My husband and I visited our son at JMU and chose to try the Yurt life. We were both pleasantly surprised at the comfortable getaway this retreat offered! Beautiful location and just under 20 minutes from campus. Would definitely stay again!

Little slice of heaven

My family of four had such an amazing stay! Hikes in the morning to the sound of babbling creeks (dry river isn’t actually dry). The quaint yurt had all the provisions you could need to stay comfortably and there was a little magical feeling to it. I would still be there now if we didn’t have to get back to reality. Definitely recommend this place and would go back in a heartbeat!

About the host

Hosted by Marcy Beck

I was lucky enough to find this beautiful property and I am grateful to share it with all of you! When I was building the yurt it was plain to see it was a very special place. Nature is an important part of staying balanced and happy in life, especially with the busy lives we all live!

Why they chose this property

The yurt sits on 1.5 acres of land which it shares with a small cabin in the far corner of the property. We built the yurt right at the point were Dry River and Gum Run meet, with your own balcony to enjoy the view. We have a trail right out front that leads to a secluded swimming hole, The Blue Hole about 1/4 mile upriver. The yurt is air conditioned and heated to keep you comfortable in every season. We provide wood for the fire pit and plenty of shade tree to relax under. The yurt and our few neighbors are surrounded by George Washington National Park. Up the mountain passing another swimming hole called The Bathtub is a trail going 20 miles into the park.
