I was giddy immediatey upon arrival. The yurt, bult completely by the host/hostess, surpassed what I had imagined even from online descriptions. Tucked away in the hills and surrounded by trees in all directions, it is a place of absolute serenity. Inside the yurt you'll experience near 360 views from windows and doors to the outside. Inside is cozy with gorgeous modern kitchen and bathroom. A fenced in yard allowed space for my pup to run around and enjoy the outdoors along with me, which you will want to take advantage of by sitting on the deck and soaking it all in (the fire pit, too!). The hosts Julia and Harry are nothing short of wonderful; attentive, helpful, quick to respond, accomodating, generous, and so very kind. The appreciation I have for my entire experience is beyond words. Have decided this to be an annual getaway. Check out Mabry Mill (10 minute drive), and Chateau Morisette Winery (20 minutes). Close to downtown Floyd. Minutes to Blue Ridge Parkway. And quaint shops, grocery, gifts, coffee, etc around the corner right in Meadows of Dan. Cannot recommend this rental, or this area enough. Five stars are not enough. Book and enjoy!!!
