15’ Nest
This yurt was our first to build and has become a favorite space for one person to set up a complete living situation. The Nest size keeps all the yurt parts shorter than 8’ long and allows it to be easily transported in the back of a pickup truck. In fact with careful packing, 4 yurts of this size can be transported in the back of an 8’ truck bed.

Our 15’ yurt is our best selling yurt due to the fact that it is truly suited for transport or semi-permanent set up. With its ease of set up, and enough space to accommodate most all of a single persons needs, “The Nest” is the perfect home for the nomad at heart. This size is also the best choice for the backyard garden. We offer a clear vinyl cover that will transform this yurt into a cold frame greenhouse in late winter or a year round covered hot tub space with view of the moon and stars.
