Property details
What exactly is an Octadecagon? At the property manager our "Yurt" is an 18-sided, custom-built and exquisitely appointed wilderness cabin unlike any other. Over two years in construction, Roy Conant, allowed the spirit of the "Yurt" and the materials incorporated therein to guide the realization of a sweet, peaceful, and relaxing accessible wilderness respite, Accessible from inside the "Yurt" is a bathroom with a roll-in shower with seat and other facilities with transfer provisions.
Largely constructed from materials lovingly and gently harvested on-site, the Yurt at Rivendell is a sanctuary of peace and serenity, a place for rejuvenation and inspiration. Step back in time to a stress-free existence while the sun, the moon and the stars wink at you through the gentle undulations of the 100 year-old Douglas Firs Trees and the "Dome" of the Yurt itself. Relish the radiance of tranquility in your sojourn to heartsease and inspiration.
Privacy abounds in this Awesome Cabin, situated all by itself in the midst of forest and meadow, of breathtaking beauty and sumptuous simplicity with wild life all around. One can normally expect to see deer, wild turkeys, squirrels (especially those scampering across the roof, deck and trees adjacent) and sometimes bear, bobcat, cougar, and elk -- Along with native birds, plants, and butterflies in season!
Relax in your very own teakwood hot tub on a private deck overlooking the wonders of nature. Be at peace with life and nature in our pastoral cabin while being just a short distance from the wondrous Columbia River Gorge, it's world-renowned spectacular scenery and waterfalls, and the bucolic villages which line its shores. From Spring through Autumn, the Wild and Scenic White Salmon and Klickitat Rivers, just few miles away, offer White Water Rafting, Kayaking, Canoeing, Fishing, Swimming, and other water sports
The Yurt at Rivendell is "Glamping" at its finest, proffering essential amenities of the built world in a completely natural and stunningly beautiful environment. Whatever the season (Our Respite at Rivendell is available year-round) you are bound to be enthralled by the natural spectacle of nature and the opportunities therein to animate, energize, and satiate your entire being -- body, spirit, and soul!

We absolutely loved staying in the Yurt for a few days following our wedding. It was the perfect peaceful getaway and had an amazing view of Mt. Adams. Would love to visit again.

Very communicative and helpful! We didn’t end up staying at the cabin because of special circumstances but the hosts were very gracious and understanding. Very quick and responsive with communication as well

Rebecca and the foreman who runs the place were friendly, thorough in their instructions, and respectful of privacy while still being available for requests and questions. The location is tucked just far enough into the mountains to feel like you have the woods around you all to yourself but close enough to town for a quick drive to go out to dinner or breakfast. The yurt is comfortable with very effective heating and cooling and a view of mount hood outside the kitchen window. There is a gas grill and most basic kitchen amenities. The hot tub is divine! It is one of those deep cedar DIY ones and it stays perfectly hot. I spent quite a few hours floating around reading my book and listening to the birds and the wind through the trees. There are a few dirt roads that make for lovely short walks through the woods. The living space felt cozy and well kept with a lot of charming and quirky touches. The beds were comfortable. We loved our stay and would happily visit again. 10/10 for us.

I didn't get to stay here due to the burdoin fire, it was cancelled at the last minute, but the host was EXTREMELY kind and accommodating and tremendously helpful. Very responsive and eager to help, especially with me being in a wheelchair, they just really wanted to make sure everything was accessible and that I would be able to do everything I want to do and more! 10 out of 10, will definitely book again when it's not fire season! Highly recommend!
