The Whitetail Yurt offers a unique and enjoyable camping experience, with easy setup and fun fishing opportunities. Guests appreciate the beautiful views and the peaceful atmosphere, especially during off-peak times. However, access to the river can be challenging, and the site lacks a bear box.

Lovely spot by the Yaak River. Others have pointed out that it’s right along the highway which is true, but this is the Yaak and not a ton of traffic. The yurt itself is less charming than I might have thought. Take note of the windows that can be rolled open because it’s a bit musty in there. And it’s true that the bathrooms are “insanely clean.”

We stay at the Yurt every summer and kayak the Yaak. Perfect place to stay and enjoy the surrounding area.

Older Yurt with woodrats living under the yurt. Door needs to be replaced. Nice location. I will pitch a tent in same campground the next stay. The campground hosts keep the restrooms sparkling clean and campground well maintained,

A simple, quiet getaway in the Yaak valley. We usually prefer to camp in the more private locations such as cabins an lookouts, so we were a little apprehensive about going to a public campground. It was quiet with plenty of space between camp sites. We took our 5 and 3 year old grand children.
They had a great time! (grandma and grandpa too!).
The outhouse was exceptionally clean, by far one of the cleanest that we have seen in a USFS campsite.

This yurt is pretty basic. We were there May 2nd and it was really mildewey, smelt pretty bad and was damp in there. We have a pretty cozy bed in our truck and we chose to sleep there instead. Our reservation said it was on site 9 but it was actually on 10. Close to the river which is nice, good picnic tables and fire pits, toilets were insanely clean. Right off the highway so you hear cars.
