About this property

Fiddlehead Farm Yurt

Nestled in a grove of aspen, maple, and birch, our cozy yurt offers escape from the city and protection from the elements. Enjoy a short walk on trails through our woods or find the Superior Hiking Trail and COGGs trails less than a mile away. Relax by our garden. The yurt has a deck and chairs, a seasonal screen door to enjoy the breeze, a woodstove, a propane cookstove, an outhouse, and a bucket sink.
The space
Expect to enjoy a rustic stay! The woodstove is the primary heat source for the yurt. If you don't know how to build a fire, please let us know-- we have provided instructions and are also happy to assist. There is no running water at the yurt (there is, however, water provided and a bucket sink). The outhouse is a short walk from the yurt.
Other things to note
We believe it is our responsibility to minimize the spread of COVID-19. We suspended all hosting from March-August 2020, both to discourage unnecessary travel and to prepare to safely hosts guests (namely, building an outhouse!). We suspended hosting again from November 2020-March 2021.

We are taking the following precautions with COVID-19 in mind:
1. Minimizing shared spaces: the yurt is all yours! The outhouse is sometimes used by other guests to the property, note that the door does have a latch on the inside.
2. Thorough cleaning according to guidelines.

Please do not travel if you are sick or believe you may have been exposed to COVID recently. Please only book a stay with us if you plan to follow CDC guidelines while you are in town. Thank you for helping us keep our community safe!

Horrible

I arrived, carried bags to yurt, I was covered in mosquitos. They were in the yurt and all over me. I got bit between my fingers, on my knuckles, in my hair, in 1 ear, behind my ears, on the neck, hands, legs, foot; itched for days. I took my bags to the car and called the friend of the hosts who was taking care of it and told her I couldn't stay. One of the owners called me. She said they'd had more than usual rain and there were a lot of mosquitos. I told her everything and said could I get at least 1/2 my rent back since it wasn't her fault or mine that I couldn't stay and she said yes. It's been 12 months and I've not received any refund and not even a call. I tried to make a different VRBO reservation, but their policy didn't allow that. I ended up staying at a motel in 10 Harbor. This was my first trip to Minnesota, I didn't know anyone or any businesses, it was Saturday, 1400, I was tired from a long drive, so my vacation was off to a rough start. Toward me the hosts were not honorable or fair-the co-owners word means nothing to me; I don't like to say bad about anyone but it's been12 months. I didn't complain to VRBO because I trusted the co-owner and waited and waited and waited.

Relaxation

The yurt is probably 250ft from the main property. And the property is about 10 minutes from Duluth. The owner and her wife are very hospitable. If you’re looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway, this is your place!

Great Yurt Experience

The yurt was clean, tidy, and stayed very warm while the brisk fall air whirled through the surrounding trees. The owners ensured we had everything we needed, they are lovely to rent from.
