State Park Yurts
Yurts-  Imagine
sitting with friends inside a backcountry yurt as snow falls outside your circular
tent, drifting lazily past windows rimmed with frost from the cold outside your
warm canvas walls. Or, waking to a warm summer morning inside your yurt as a cool
summer's breeze flows gently through your yurt's large screen windows. Yurts,
reminiscent of tents used by nomads on the steppes of Mongolia and Siberia, are
round tents on a wooden frame with circular skylights and windows to provide illumination.
Colorado State Parks offers a variety of yurts designed to accommodate
the casual camper or backcountry traveler. Yurts are available year-round at select
sites.
Yurts are currently available at State Forest State Park, Ridgway
State Park, Pearl Lake, Golden Gate Canyon and Mancos State Park.
Golden
Gate Canyon State Park has two yurts located in Reverend's Ridge campground that
offer the perfect escape from Denver among aspen groves and pine covered hills.
Both yurts sleep a maximum of six people. The yurts are equipped with two bunk
beds, one twin-size and one double-size. Visit Golden Gate Canyon State Park for
more information.
State Forest, the largest of Colorado's state parks,
offers five yurts scattered throughout the park that blend with the rugged landscape.
With names like Ruby Jewel, North Fork Canadian and Grass Creek, adventurous travelers
will find accommodations tailored for their needs, whether it's a relaxing weekend
outing with the family or a challenging journey into the winter backcountry. For
more information or to make reservations in State Forest State Park contact Never
Summer Nordic at (970) 482-9411 or visit their website at www.neversummernordic.com.
Visit State Forest State Park for more information.
Ridgway has three
yurts located on the Dutch Charlie site that will keep guests cool in the summer
with three large screened windows and a ceiling fan. In the wintertime, insulated
walls and a propane/gas log fireplace, shelter guests from cold winter winds while
they revel in winter in the Rockies, nestled beneath the towering San Juan Mountains.
As with all yurts in Colorado State Parks, you'll need to bring your own bedding.
Pets are allowed in yurt #14 only, and an additional $10 pet fee is required.
Visit Ridgway State Park for more information.
Mancos has two yurts
located at sites 22 and 24 that are available for rent year-round by reservation
or on a first-come, first-served basis. Both yurts at Mancos have a wooden lattice
wall and ceiling. They are nicely complemented with a wooden door, pinewood floors,
a ceiling light/fan and a screened skylight in the center of the domed roof. Three
large screened windows, a skylight and a ceiling fan keep these ultra-modern tents
cool and comfortable in the summer, while the insulated walls and propane heater/gas-log
fireplace keep them warm and cozy in the winter. Visit Mancos State Park for more
information.
Pearl Lake has two yurts availalbe year-round by reservation.
Both yurts require a two night minimum stay. Each yurts is furnished with a picnic
table, four deck chairs, and two sets of bunk beds with the lower bunk being a
double sized futon. Just off each deck is a picnic table and fire ring. You will
need to bring your own bedding such as sleeping bags or sheets, blankets and pillows.
During the summer, visitors can enjoy all the facilities Pearl Lake and nearby
Steamboat Lake offer. Winter offers a completely different experience, as the
yurts are accessible only by snowshoe, ski or snowmobile. Visit Pearl Lake State
Park for more information.
