Loved this Yurt glamping experience. We stayed while attending a U of O Football game. Beautiful drive through the countryside on the way to the Yurt. The Yurt itself was clean and spacious with everything you need. The Owners were sweet and very helpful and the brownies were delicious! The gardens around the yurt were well kept and beautiful to look at. We enjoyed our stay. Only downside is private bathroom has door and walls but ceiling open to rest of the yurt.

First off, the gardens are amazing! The owners were so nice and accommodating making sure we had everything, needed anything. The yurt is nice and very unique the way the bathroom was added and very clean. I would say, if you are sensitive to noise, you do hear traffic we are not sensitive to noise so we slept great. I would stay there again if I'm ever back in the area.

AMAZING!

I have booked many homes through VRBO, but this was by far the best hosts we have dealt with. Jim and Virginia were friendly, responsive and beyond accommodating. If you are in the area, I could not recommend them enough! We stayed here to attend the Nike National Outdoor track meet and I would stay here again!!

Lovely hosts!

Jim and Patricia were incredibly kind and gracious hosts. I was visiting with my son to check out U of O. The yurts were extremely clean and comfortable. Beds and bedding were fantastic, and Patricia made a wonderful breakfast. She also offered my son and I pieces of homemade German chocolate cake, which was the icing on the cake for our 2 night stay. Much thanks to you both and we hope to return!

Delightful diversion

Our stay at the Yur-tel was wonderful! The hosts made every effort to provide for their guests (complimentary wine, snacks, and breakfast) and check-in was a breeze. The yurt was extremely clean and very roomy. I would definitely stay here again! Next time we'll stay long enough to do a little wine tasting at nearby wineries!

Fun place to stay

Super helpful and friendly hosts, yummy food, fun yurt with bears and flowers around. Noisy road but ear plugs are provided. Recommend softer lights in the bathroom. Those are so bright. And maybe a little lamp next to the other bed. Otherwise everything was pretty perfect. Just a short drive to Florence and the coast. A little store is down the road, Dairy Queen around the corner and other small restaurants. Thank you for your kindness.

Disliked: Staff & service

Things got a little weird and uncomfortable during our stay to be honest. Patricia, the matron of the establishment (there are actually multiple yurts lined up in a row behind their house that they rent out), went into a bit of overdrive with her religious proselytizing. At the end of it all, she tried to load my wife up with religious paraphernalia and, likely due to my lack of interest, insulted me on the way out. It's really very sad because we were kind and gracious with them to a fault throughout the duration. Hosting people with this kind of purpose in mind is frankly a violation of the trust guests place in their VRBO hosts. Patricia clearly demonstrated that she would benefit from learning some basic manners and developing a healthy dose of maturity.

About the host

Hosted by Jim Haddock

Hi, we are Jim and Patricia Haddock. We have been married for 48 years and call Veneta our home since 2004. Yurtel-Veneta is our retirement dream. We hope you like what we have built and love to bring a unique and memorable Yurt experience to all our guests.

Why they chose this property

We bought this land as an investment property and had leased it to others for11 years. We wanted to do something ourselves and decided on a bed and breakfast with themed Yurts. The city of Veneta desperately needed overnight lodging and obtaining the permits was a lengthy and arduous process. On September 1st 2016, all the building and Health Department permits finally were approved and we officially began building our dream.
