Skyline Yurt is a one-of-a-kind luxury getaway nestled in the tranquil serenity of the mountains. Here, you won’t find any compromises with respect to the top-notch cabin-like structure, modern amenities, a hot tub, wood-burning stove, archery, EV charger, spacious elevated deck, pool table, board games, and so much more! This magnificent pet-friendly Skyline Cabin / Yurt is surrounded by the captivating scenery of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains at an elevation of over 1,100 ft! Experience the #YurtLife—only an hour from Washington, DC and two hours from Baltimore!

Skyline Yurt is a custom wooden yurt located only 13 miles (20 minutes) away from the entrance to famous Skyline Drive, which sits along the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Shenandoah National Park. Constructed using the finest materials and significant attention to detail, this space will invite you and your family and friends to immediately make yourselves at home. Furnished with plenty of modern conveniences, the Skyline Cabin / Yurt sets out to provide a unique experience offering comforts akin to those of a chic boutique hotel. Embrace your inner yogi with a morning routine on the large deck, or soak in the outdoor hot tub under a starry night sky—the choice is yours! We also offer an EV charging station for those in need, as our property was built with the environment in mind.  

Along with these features, the property has a dependable climate control system, wood-burning stove, hot tub, WiFi (which is slow and sporadic due to the property’s rural location, but we are on the Starlink waiting list to ensure future improvement), and a smart TV with Disney Plus and Netflix. We also have smart speakers, a designated workspace, pool table, PlayStation 5 with four controllers, and an assortment of board games.

Living Space & Fully Equipped Kitchen

The yurt features a full kitchen with an island, dining table, cookware, utensils, refrigerator with an icemaker, dishwasher, electric stove, microwave, multicooker/rice maker, and a Nespresso coffee machine! You’ll have everything you need to carry out your morning and evening routines, as well as wine glasses for your wine and cheese afternoon happy hour!

With respect to design, the Skyline Cabin / Yurt has a loft with a pool table, a living area with an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings, windows with expansive views, and a glass dome. For your convenience, a washer/dryer combo unit is situated on the main floor.

Exterior & Activities

The spacious deck features a picnic table, gas grill pre-filled with propane, and a sunken 7-person hot tub. The outdoor area also boasts a fire pit, cornhole game, and archery stand. All amenities, including the Lever 2 EV charging and a 40-pound traditional Kainokai recurve longbow with arrows for archery practice, are free to use.

Loft, Bathrooms & Workspace

Where you'll sleep

Skyline Cabin / Yurt is best suited to accommodate four (4) people, with two (2) bedrooms featuring queen-size beds. The property can, however, sleep up to eight (8) people thanks to a king-size sleeper sofa in the loft (classified as a bedroom due to a privacy screen) and a spacious sleeper couch in the sitting area. For your convenience, linens, sleeping eye masks, earplugs, an iron, and umbrellas are all provided.

Beautiful spot in the mountains. Has just about everything you could possibly want for a little retreat away from the hustle and bustle of real life. My family was comfortable and rejuvenated.

A great outdoor experience close to DC. A fun way to spend a weekend away with friends! The property was extremely clean and everything is how described. They even left us farm fresh eggs and lots of snacks!
