The yurts are cool. Especially during the winter months. During the colder months, there aren’t many people down here. The solitude is really peaceful. And there’s a safe cozy feeling and Afton State Park and the yurts— plenty of firewood to keep the yurt warm and cozy. And, the Park Rangers and the entire staff who work at Afton State Park are really fantastic. Very friendly. Very accommodating. And helpful in so many ways. They keep the park looking beautiful. I’ve been coming to Afton state park my whole life. And it’s never been better.

Heated cabins with excellent insulation...! Perfect for winter camping. 10/10 would recommend. Only one heated family restroom in the visitor center though, if you are not into vault toilets.
