IMG_3641Our Jimmy Keen Flat Yurt sits on a high desert mesa overlooking the prominent towers and buttes of Castle Valley, the winding Colorado River and Arches National Park far below.  Situated nearly halfway down the Whole Enchilada Trail and at the intersection of the newly constructed Jimmy Keen Loop and Kokopelli Trail this yurt provides the perfect location for mountain bikers to extend their adventure. Road bikers and auto tourists will also find this location ideal as it sits only 100 yards off the popular and scenic La Sal Loop Road. This yurt is available during the summer months only.

Guests here enjoy a cozy 20 foot yurt, accommodating 8 people. We offer two bunks, each sleeping one on top and two on bottom, as well as two large cots with sleeping pads (no bedding is supplied). A kitchen area fully stocked with all necessary cooking equipment, dining table and chairs, wood burning stove and small library with games round out this cozy and comfortable yurt.
