TRUE OFF-GRID WILDERNESS ADVENTURE - NO shower, NO WiFi, NO cell service, wildlife encounters guaranteed!
Welcome to Sleepy Bear Red Yurt!
Live an incredible, timeless, and off-grid experience in a little piece of nature near Golden, BC. Located in the middle of the woods, this pretty rustic yurt will transport you to a simple, warm, and authentic world.
Perfect For:
- Adventure seekers and nature lovers
- Digital detox enthusiasts
- Wildlife photography
- Couples seeking unique experiences
- Those who understand "off-grid" means OFF-GRID
IMPORTANT: This is a genuine off-grid experience - perfect for adventurous souls seeking digital detox and wildlife encounters. Not suitable for those expecting hotel amenities.
All around the accommodation, take a breath of fresh air between a breathtaking view of the mountains and the hypnotizing sound of the stream flowing a few meters away. The more adventurous will even be able to discover during an enchanted getaway, the three waterfalls which are an integral part of the scenery, just a few hundred meters away, to enjoy a very refreshing swim.
Experience a unique way of life, while reconnecting with nature. Consisting of a double bed, a wood-burning stove, a basic kitchen, and an ecological composting toilet, living in the woods may not be luxurious but has never been so pleasant and intoxicating.
Wildlife Welcome Committee: Expect daily visits from deer, raccoons, bears, pine martens, and yes, the occasional mouse indoors. This is their home - you're the guest!
