Yurt vacation rentals in Northern California

Cliffside Yurt by the River

If you're looking for a unique way to experience nature that still offers the comforts of home, come see what Yurt Life is all about! Tucked away in a manzanita grove and perched on a cliff with the river below, the space offers privacy, views, and close access to the river. This little yurt packs a big punch: kitchenette, comfy lounge chairs, queen bed, table, wifi and ceiling fan. And rather than being a dreaded experience, the attached bathroom with epic views is one of the best features!

Magical 2br/2ba cabins nestled in the redwoods

Nestled into the redwoods of Portola Valley but only 15 minutes from Palo Alto and 25 minutes from SFO, this is a dreamy rustic cabin retreat. We're honored to share it with you. The residence consists of 3 separate cabins built by Yurt People/California Yurts. The cabins are connected by a large deck overlooking a forest creek and enveloped in redwood, oak, and bay trees. You are surrounded by nature and can walk to a large network of public trails. It's a beautiful and magical place.

Handcrafted Yurt Hideaway

The surrounding nature provides a stunning and peaceful refuge. You feel as though you're a million miles away. And yet town is only a 5 minute drive, allowing access to anything you might need during your stay. We consider our land a sacred, healing place. Before we built on this property we gave special homage to the Native peoples, and asked for blessings from the spirits to live here. We have discovered grinding rocks, shards of Chinese pottery, and ancient fire pits on the land.
