Had a wonderful one-night stay in the Lavender. I loved that this unit was the farthest unit which gave you more privacy and quiet, though I do wish the units were spread out a bit more since noise carries so easily.

The details and amenities did not go unnoticed - they exceeded my expectations. Not only was the kitchen fully stocked with everything you might need for a getaway, they had a complimentary bottle of wine, bottled water, coffee and merch for you to take home! The internet also worked perfectly!

The decor is tastefully done and well executed. The bedding was comfortable and pillows were plentiful. The location also can’t be beat- just a short drive into Johnson City.

I also used the barrel tub early in the morning and it was fantastic. Quiet, alone, perfect temp! Definitely recommend.

There are a few things I would recommended improving on, if possible.

The unit was clean except the trash can was almost still completely full.

Since there is no ceiling on the bathroom and the walls only extend so high, once lights are out and someone is in the restroom, a perfect TV like reflection is placed on the sunlight above. If I were with anyone besides a significant other, it may have been an issue. You can see the toilet, shower - everything very clearly. Note - this did not bother me but I could see an issue with others.

The AC was running at around 70 when we checked in but it wasn’t blowing very much at all. The fan speed was at max and you could see a little bit of ice. In the middle of the night, there was a very loud crunching sound and it dropped a lot of ice and water onto the nightstand. After that, it ran and blew perfectly. I’m sure the fluctuation in outside temps that day caused the unit to freeze over. Not sure how this is resolved in a yurt with little temp protection or insulation. The standup rotating fan was also a nice addition at night!

Overall, I had a fantastic experience. I would definitely return.
