Experience the natural beauty of Washington state parks year round by spending the
night in a comfortable and affordable yurt, cabin or
rustic shelter. These accommodations are a perfect alternative to camping
and a great way to enjoy the beauty of nature without "roughing it." Yurts and cabins have
simple and comfortable furnishings and also have electricity and heat. Yurts, cabins and
rustic shelters are available for rent at several state parks.
Yurts and cabins
Renting a yurt or cabin is an affordable and convenient way to vacation at a Washington state park.
Yurts and cabins provide the basic comforts of heating, electricity and furnishings that allow visitors
to enjoy the beauty of nature year round without "roughing it." And the price per night for up to six
people is as low as $49.

These circular, domed tents are made of extra-heavy, durable canvas and have spacious interiors with
skylights, screened windows, hardwood floors and locking doors. Traditionally, yurts served as strong
shelters for nomadics in Asia. Yurts sleep up to six people.
Cabins

furnishings. Cabins sleep four to six people.
