we absolutely recommend trying to stay for two or more nights so that you can get accustomed to the space, learn the property, settle in, and relax
things you might like to bring: headlamps, robe, flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes
there is a wood-fired stove inside with plenty of wood stacked to keep you warm and there is a wood-fired hot tub that is dedicated to this yurt only Both require a fire to be lit and maintained to keep it hot.
the kitchen is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc There should be charcoal available, but if not, please plan to bring your own or go to the store.
water: we are on a well and provide fresh drinking water in a container for you It’s fine to drink, cook, and bathe with the water from the tap but it can have a minerally quality to it. We test the well annually. We provide filtered water but if it runs out, the water out of the tap is safe and delicious.
fireplace: we will leave you a bundle of wood that comes with the rental If you need more wood you can purchase it from us or from the grocery store. We have lots of wood at the yurt and we ask you to pay $10 per bundle if you use more then we leave you inside. This is on the honor system. If you don’t know how to start a fire you may want to bring an instant log.
the hot tub: it’s wood-fired This means you have to heat it with a fire to get it hot. This can take many hours to get to the right temperature. it’s a good idea to start a fire right when you get there!
sleep: we have a heating blanket for cold nights It’s about 10 degrees cooler on our land than in town. There will be a fan for you as well during the warm season.
it’s a beautiful time of year on the property If you walk the trails around the property and keep going up, you will hit the irrigation streams, so beautiful right now! You can also walk up the street to access the same waterways. Please stay on the paths and do not allow dogs, kids, etc. to put unnecessary wear and tear on the environment.
we have 19 chickens and two baby goats (born 3/14/25) You're welcome to take fresh eggs out of the indoor coop. Feel free to go into the pen and interact with the goats; they love fresh branches, fresh leaves, chips, and crackers. They are currently bottle-fed fed so they like to suck on fingers as well. They love attention! The spotted one is Rocket, and the yellow one is Willow.
checkout: checkout time is 11 am Here’s how to check out -Please do the dishes. Pile your used towels together so I don’t wash things that haven’t been used. Leave the door unlocked and leave the trash where it is, and we will take care of it. Just send me a text to 510-541-9416 that you’ve left if possible, so we can come and get it ready for the next person.
land acknowledgment: we acknowledge that our property is located on unceded land It is the traditional homeland of the Nisenan tribe. The Nisenan tribe is alive and active and continues to fight for federal recognition and compensation for land loss. We donate 10% of proceeds to CHIRP, which promotes the history and culture of the Nisenan tribe.https://chirpca.org
