"Glamping in Treebones Resort"

 

Here's an excerpt from Conde Nast Traveler's article from the Guide to "Glamping" Around the World:

Conde Nast Traveler View Deck

Something Wild: Itching to be one with nature but reluctant to forgo your morning cappuccino?

"This is the kind of place where clients who arrive by bicycle are given a free bottle of wine from the alternative-energy-loving management. A decade ago, a family decided to make a resort inspired by the way animals live, “perched lightly on the land.” Five years of permits and two years of construction later, this collection of 16 yurts dotting 11 acres along a bluff 400 feet above the Pacific Coast runs on its own generator, has a 65-foot ocean-view bar, sources all of its veggies within 40 miles, and feeds leftovers from its California cuisine restaurant and sushi bar to 18 resident chickens. Each yurt has hot and cold running water but no showers or toilets (those are in the main house, which has heated tile floors). Guests may also pitch their own tent at Treebones’s campsites, one of which comes with an elevated “human nest” built of wood scraps and designed by a local artist. Like we said, it’s that kind of place."

From Our family

How Eco Will YOU go?™

Are you ready to go beyond the comforts of a yurt and fall asleep cradled in a human-sized nest? Extreme "eco sleep" is here. Reserve two nights in the nest with its own campsite to plop your tent on.

This unusual work of woven wood-art was created & built by Big Sur artist Jayson Fann of the Spirit Garden. Bring your own sleeping bags & other gear for this night aloft (note: the Human Nest is not rain proof).

Be Bold and Courageous – sleep in a human nest!
