In northern Wisconsin, there’s a vacation rental waiting for you that’s as beautiful as it is unusual. The Terra Cotta Yurt is just what it sounds – an earth-colored yurt, a structure that’s tucked into the forest near Bayfield. The yurt is open for guests who are willing to take on a lot of beauty, a lot of adventure, and a vacation like no other. Here’s what you need to know about the Terra Cotta Yurt.

The yurt is tucked into the wild and beautiful Bayfield County Forest. It’s a bit of an adventure getting there – you’ll need to hike, bike, snowshoe, or ski in. The trail is a little under a mile, and it’s pretty much all uphill.

The effort is worth it. You’ll enjoy solitude and some astounding beauty. While the yurt is affordable, it comes with a million-dollar view. There’s a large deck from which to take it all in.

The yurt offers a sweeping view of Lake Superior, and you can actually see four of the Apostle Islands from the deck (Madeline, Basswood, Stockton, and Michigan). You can even see the lighthouse on Michigan Island!
