The yurts are located at 12,000 feet above Empire Reservoir in Leadville, Colorado, west of the Mosquito range. Our yurts offer unique lodging, spectacular views, intimate contact with the land, and endless recreational opportunities.

To provide a more isolated experience, we have limited the number of yurts in the area to two: the Emma Yurt and the Marceline Yurt. Each yurt sleeps five comfortably and is equipped with one double bed and three single bunk beds, a wood stove, firewood and an axe, a propane cooking stove, a propane light, table and chairs, basic cooking utensils and dishes.

This newest Colorado yurt system embodies style and comfort. Cozy-up, or use the yurts as a base camp to explore the thousands of acres of public lands that make up their backyard: Empire Gulch, Empire Reservoir, and Gold Basin are the pristine playground that awaits the adventurer in you.

According to the season, you may choose to hike, mountain bike, ski, snowshoe, horseback ride, hunt, view and photograph wildlife, paint the autumn colors, or enjoy the lazy pleasures of gazing at the natural beauty of the area and visiting with friends.
