About this property

Camelot is a 24' diameter blue exterior Yurt decorated like the mythical castled city Camelot in Arthurian legend. This Yurt features a full bathroom with shower, AC, heat, WIFI throughout the property and a 40" flat screen TV. A castle wall separates the main area from the bathroom and two swords dawning the wall to keep you safe. There are two comfortable beds, a Queen and Full size, and you can gaze upon the stars as you fall asleep underneath a dome sky light. Sit at the knight's round table for a perfect place to work and eat. A private 8' x 10' covered deck is a wonderful place to relax surrounded by our gardens full of flowers. Continental breakfast self serve option every morning with an assortment of teas, coffee, water and juice. We offer biscotti and fruit plus snacks. We love to bring a unique Yurt bed & breakfast experience to all our guests.

Yurtel-Veneta is located close to 8 different wineries with spectacular views, food, entertainment, and tasting rooms. Located 10 miles from Eugene and an hour drive to the beautiful Oregon coast. Once you have stayed in a round Yurt, everywhere else just seems square.

Great night near Eugene

We stayed the night prior to the Eugene marathon and found the property to be perfectly cozy and not too far from U of O. We thought the hosts were very accommodating and they made it easy to have coffee and a bite to eat even in the wee hours before the start of the race :)

Cute & Comfy in Veneta

Clever decor of the yurts carries over to the garden and path connecting the three yurts with the hospitality center (check in there). DON'T think camping tents! These are well-appointed with comfy queen beds, full bath with plenty of plush towels, mini fridge and large TV. We look forward to staying in each differently-decorated yurt on future visits!

Lovely Owners - Fantastic Stay

The owners are a wonderful couple who are very sweet and hospitable. The road noise is a bit much since it is a yurt and not "insulated" per se. They offer complimentary ear plugs though and I slept great. Would recommend and stay again.

Very clean and beautiful

The hosts were very gracious and sweet. Offering us wine and conversation at night (unfortunately we had to pass as we were exhausted) and offering a breakfast that kept my food sensitivities in mind. The yurts couldn't have been any cleaner or cozier. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom and shower roomy. The stunning garden was unexpected and added a peaceful ambiance to the grounds The ONLY negative was the extreme road noise BUT the hosts provided ear plugs so I was eventually able to sleep.

Just 5 stars all the way across. Jim and his wife were more than we was expecting we loved to chat with them and learned a lot about the area and both of them are fully dedicated to the property and it really shows!!! The only drawback is road noise but what do you expect your staying in a beautifully furnished yurt in beautifully kept property. Now if this property was further away from all the road noise then they would exceed our 5 star rating. Jim you and your wife will always have good memories and we will return even if its just to say hi.

Lovely spot for U of O family weekend

Spacious and comfortable, these yurts are fun and affordable. We enjoyed breakfast and wine with the property owners. The room and bathroom were both spacious and included a little table to play cards and a big TV. My 15yr old and I, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A wonderful visit to Camelot

The communication with the owners was second to none. Helped navigate our travel for safety. Once we arrived, we were impressed with the decoration and layout of the yurt. I've stayed in a yurt before but not this luxurious. The set up was superb. I had one of the most comfortable sleeps, like a Queen! Then the treat of the stay was the delicious breakfast and conversation with the owners! LOVED everything about our stay.

Beautiful yurt, friendly people

Lovely, friendly, helpful hosts who provided a scrumptious breakfast way beyond my expectations. The yurt was beautiful and even bigger than I imagined, with very comfortable beds, fluffy towels, nice shower, AC, great ambience. The surrounding rose garden was a-blooming with so many varieties in mid July for our stay. We were only there for one night, but enjoyed the friendliness, the comfort, and the beautiful surroundings as well.

This place was fantastic! The yurts are very well-constructed and are comfortably furnished, and the grounds have an abundance of flowers and green plants. The only drawback is the location, the establishment is on a busy street, and it seemed like there was always traffic, even in the dead of night. But, if you can wear ear plugs when you sleep (they provide them), or the noise doesn't bother you, then this could be an amazing place to temporarily call home. The hosts couldn't be nicer, so helpful and sweet. They insisted on providing breakfast to-go when they learned we couldn't stay for a sit-down meal, and it was delicious. They are very gracious and wonderful, and really make their guests feel at home.

Wonderful yurt but still insensitive manager

We chose to visit the Yurtel during the pandemic because we assumed it would be spaced from others and we’d have minimal close contact. During check in the property managers ushered us inside an enclosed space and weren’t wearing masks. They pressured my 5 year old numerous times to take his off, and were rude about his social distanced behavior

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 for11 years. We decided to do something ourselves and the idea of a bed and breakfast with themed Yurts was born. 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.
