Enjoy slow mornings, peaceful days, and star-gazing nights in the comfort of our 4-season Wildland "Be Well" Yurt. Designed to stay cool in the summer, and equipped with a powerful heating system to keep you warm throughout winter, we invite you to come back each season for a unique experience.

The Be Well Yurt is part of the Wildland family of retreat spaces. Situated in a private location surrounded by towering pines, the yurt faces the creek - offering beautiful views and maximum privacy. The Wildland Tree House sits on the same property, several yards away (home to your hosts + an additional private guest space). Both the Yurt and the additional guest space have exclusive access to their own designated outdoor areas, along with access to some common/shared spaces throughout the property. You are welcome to book both spaces for groups of up to 6 - please look for our other listing by searching for "Wildland Retreat Space" or messaging us for a link.

A dedicated full bathroom and mudroom for the yurt, with a private entrance, are located on the west side of the Wildland Tree House. Please note - the "mudroom" is a private space we've created for your convenience to remove any muddy shoes/clothes etc, before entering the sanctuary of your full tub/shower bathroom. The walk from your yurt to the private bathroom is less than 30 steps along a solar-lit path. Enjoy an elevated bath experience with mindful, minimalist bath and body offerings courtesy of our local apothecary, Wildland Organics.

We have a deep commitment to eco-friendly, non-toxic, vegan, & upcycled materials - which you will find throughout the space. We use only non-toxic, natural cleaning supplies (plus bleach & organic alcohol throughout Covid pandemic) - 100% cotton sheets, and natural materials throughout the yurt - including a cozy “Buffy” duvet made from recycled plastic bottles.

Directions to hiking trails plus recommended sightseeing, shopping and restaurants can be found on our @wildlandorganics IG story highlights titled "Visit Idyllwild". Special guest-only discounts will be offered at the WILDLAND shop in town throughout the duration of your stay.

With all its comforts, the Yurt is a GLAMPING experience - as in, glamorous camping. The camping aspect includes no air conditioning (but yes, a fan + big windows for cross breeze) and occasional bugs that might find their way into your glorified “tent”. Please come with the mindset that this will be a unique nature immersion experience, coupled with the cushiest of comforts.

A beautiful marriage of both nature and luxury - the Wildland "Be Well" Yurt is an Idyllwild experience you won't soon forget.
