Loved the Yurt, it was my daughter's 1st time in Alaska and even though it rained all week, she had a great time and had a lot of 1st times. The Yurt was in a great location close to the small town of Talkeetna.

Cute little yurt, and the bathhouse is right across the walkway. The walk to downtown is about a half mile, so we ended up renting bikes at the shop by the tracks

Nomad Yurt

This was the first time we had ever stayed in a yurt. Our hosts were gracious, accommodating, and took care of all of our needs. We loved the serenity and that our yurt was out of the hustle and bustle of the town.

The host was awesome. She was very accommodating. She gave us everything we needed. There was some remodeling being gone, but she took care of us. Definitely give her an AThe shops were about 4 miles away, but we knew the area so that was fine.

Nice but could have used more basic goods like towels, a mirror in the unit, and a more comfortable bed.

Hello, thanks for your suggestions. There use to be a mirror in the Nomad Yurt. I will find out what happened to it. Towels are stacked in the Bathhouse, next to your shower. A sink hand towel is provided in the unit. I will check on towel status.

Quirky yurt, but nice

Beautiful setting. The yurt was fine. We often put together our own meals and came prepared for the normal combo of microwave and maybe a coffee maker. So we were fine with that. The bathroom and shower in a separate building would normally have been fine, but my wife was recovering from knee surgery, so it was a bit of a challenge. The advertised washer was working but the dryer was not. We really liked the setting & the diversity of cabins, so would come back--but perhaps in a cabin with more amenities.

i loved the yurt. It was cozy and quaint and the best sleep I had my entire trip. I was only there for about 12 hours. While traveling I was in and out of service and expected all communication to be through the Vrbo app, which it wasn’t but host answered the call immediately which was great. The laundry isn’t on site, and I misread the listing to think there was a bathroom in the yurt. So mishaps on my end, not the host or location. It was very close to town and I would absolutely recommend to everyone.

So glad you enjoyed the Nomad yurt. You were a wonderful guest. Our laundry is in the little yellow laundry shed. We allow guests to use it in the evening, when the staff are no longer using it.

One of my son's favorite stays on this trip! The sofa bed was also super comfy, the yurt was very clean and thoughtfully setup. There was a jug of water and a small sink in the yurt, but no running water, so we just went over to the bathroom to brush our teeth, etc. It was a little bright at night (we didn't bring a sleeping mask). Loved this stay!

Nice getaway

This yurt was tucked away in the backroads of Talkeetna! Not too far from town, but not in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The owner communicates well and responds fast. Not the fanciest place to stay, but definitely worth the experience! Definitely recommend!
