The yurt has full kitchenette with fridge, stove, sink, & small appliances.

Just relax and enjoy the great panoramic views of Sapphire Valley and the amazing granite rock faces of the mountains. Located only 5 minutes from Panthertown Valley, aka "the Yosemite of the East." (6700 acre paradise for mountain biking, backpacking, trout fishing, clear swimming holes with beaches & hiking).
More than 20 of the finest waterfalls are within a 30 minute drive. Lake Glenville (highest elevation lake east of Mississippi) has pontoon and kayaks rentals in warm weather. Whiteside Mountain has an excellent, cliff-top view, hiking loop with 700' high cliff walls. Whitewater Falls is the highest waterfall east of the Rockies that plunges a staggering 411 feet, and Gorges State Park, aka "Gorgeous" due to its unique waterfalls, rugged river gorges, sheer rock cliffs, and awesome plant life, are both within 20 minutes of the property.

When you rent our place, with a rare, gem of a view, you get the entire property to yourselves! Sit on the adirondack chairs and enjoy a cocktail with a million dollar view, or roast some smores and enjoy the best stargazing ever!

Property is in a great location, both close to things yet remote. Couldnt see or hear neighbors for most part. My family loved the outdoor space and i appreciated that it was fenced in. My dog enjoyed roaming and laying by the fire.
