Cardinal Yurt was a great escape! The location is perfect for Cloudland Canyon State Park and hiking, with an awesome view to boot. The yurt is cozy and well-equipped, and the deck was the perfect spot to relax and take it all in. Would happily stay again!

My wife loves to go Glamping. I never knew that there was such a thing until about a year ago. This was our second Yurt excursion. It was our first time in Rising Fawn, GA though. It’s about 30 mins south of Chattanooga TN. This was also my first time sleeping in a glorified tent during 40 MPH wind gusts from the remnants of a hurricane. The first night was an adventure, to say the least. I truly thought it might come apart a few times overnight. Sleeping was disrupted as it was a bit scary waking up to the whole thing rippling. Second night I slept like a baby. Bed was great and I dug the linens. It held together quite well during the storm I would say. There was only a slight leak at the double door leading to the balcony. It was directly facing the wind so I feel like any door like that would be compromised. Impressed!There were all kinds of trees down on the mountain, with one even blocking the road entirely going to Chat-Town. As far as the stay. It was way nicer than the last place and I would say it’s quite fancy feeling inside. There is a full bath and a full kitchen with all needed items provided. It was impressive what all they had there supplied for us. Every pot, pan, utensil, glass, silverware, plastic ware, dish soap, dishwasher soap, toiletries, towels, spices, foil, cutting boards, Weber grill, heck there were even coffee selections galore here. It was immaculately clean
