Aurora Yurt ~ Recreational Haven
Welcome to Aurora Yurt, a luxury glamping experience nestled in an Alaskan recreational hub. You'll have easy access to numerous outdoor adventures, including summer access to hiking and biking trails; fishing on many nearby creeks & rivers; and accessible cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails in winter. After a day of adventure, you'll return home to a cozy yurt experience with a deck, kitchenette and access to a heated shared bathhouse with a shower and laundry facilities.
When you walk into the yurt, you'll see a comfy queen bed with charging ports, Alaskan themed books, and bedside lights. On cool nights, you can choose between lighting a fire on the Blaze King Woodstove, using the space heater, or getting cozy with the electric blanket you'll find in a basket by the stairs.
The yurt is dry, meaning there is no running water. You'll have a water container that can be filled from the well outside, and a grey water bucket below. You'll also have a fully functional kitchenette, including small sink, a microwave, a fridge/freezer, a keurig coffee maker, a french press, a coffee grinder, an electric cooktop, a toaster, spices for cooking, as well as bowls, plates, and utensils. You'll be provided with a locally roasted coffee from Farm Loop Coffee, local tea from Felicity loft, and lotion made locally by Grey Fox.
There is a small table for dining, as well as a chess board, a deck of cards, and a pair of binoculars for watching birds from the large deck. Just next door is a heated bathhouse with a toilet, a shower, and a washer and dryer. This space is shared with your neighbors in Borealis Yurt.
From the yurt, you're just minutes away from world-class fishing at Sheep Creek, Goose Creek, Montana Creek, and the Kashwitna River. If you need recommendations for an excellent fishing guide, we’re here to help. Enjoy local ATV trails right from the property, or explore millions of acres of public lands for snow machining in the winter with direct access from here. Snow machine rentals and delivery can be arranged, or you can bring your own. The local dog mushing community maintains numerous multi-use trails in winter, perfect for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.
Additional activities include dog sled tours, flightseeing, river rafting, and hiking. Aurora Yurt is an ideal base for adventures to Hatcher Pass, Talkeetna, or even a road trip to Denali National Park. For dining, Sheep Creek Lodge’s restaurant is just minutes away, and the Denali Brewing and Tasting Room is also nearby.
You will have full private access to your yurt and deck. You'll have shared access to a heated bathhouse with toilet, shower, and laundry used also by guests from one other yurt.
The cabin is on property that houses two yurts, two guest homes, and the owner's home. Please be respectful of others' space.
The owner is a dog musher who lives on the property. For safety reasons and out of respect for the well-being of our sled dogs, guests are prohibited from accessing the sled dog yard located down at the end of the driveway to the right.
You are welcome to reach out for questions or recommendations at any time!
