We are unable to provide ice. There is a 30 foot dog lead if you would like to use it. Nighttime small bulb lighting that brightens up the site. Sponge bath supplies provided. My cell service works well (T-Mobile and AT&T) most of the time. Occasionally, a call drops. There is a camper on the property that may have guests during your stay. The camper is about 150 feet from the yurt. The yurt and the camper are not only separated by distance but also by trees and other vegetation. The yurt is nestled in its own private wooded area. The large parking area is used by occupants of the yurt and by occupants of the camper. Sometimes a car or ATV passes by on a dirt road near the site. From time to time UPS delivers items to our house and drives down our long driveway and past the site. Our dog sometimes barks but is not a nusance barker. When he is outside, he is about 200 feet from the site. The site is beautiful and peaceful. Located in a safe sparsely populated mountain forest community.
The bathroom tent: Starting on May 1st and lasting through August 31st (dates may vary depending on the weather) the bathroom tent will utilize a flushable portable toilet, no need to mess with bags. During this time there will also be a separate hand washing tent with a foot pump sink. The bathroom tent is not heated. From 9/1-4/30, it utilizes an environmentally friendly biodegradable bag system. Use the bathroom, tie the bag off, and dispose of the bag in the adjacent garbage can. If you do not want to change the bag every time, there is the option to utilize cat litter and change the bag per your preference.
