Visit award winning wineries in our valley in tricked out Yurt on the NF River.



Our Yurt is a perfect winter sojourn. We are in a finite zone where the high deserts soar up into the Rocky Mountains. Thus, the wonderful small town of Paonia is temperate in winter, with access to the best winter sporting one direction and calming desert in the other.
In Southwest Colorado 2 miles west of Paonia, is a Yurt nestled on a large wrap around redwood deck anchored by two mature Elms and is wonderful year round . and The building is situated in close proximity to the North Fork of the Gunnison River. The Yurt is a sanctuary far removed from neighbors and below the sight-line and activity of Highway 133.The property meanders above and below the Yurt for a quarter of a mile along the river’s edge. There are established wildlife corridors for Elk and Deer. Eagles, Red Tailed Hawks, and Blue Herons nest on the property or directly across the river. Robins routinely inhabit the trees directly above the sheltering Yurt.
When entering the 700 square foot Yurt, a 14’ high skylight inset in a mad array of knotty Aspen, draws you to its center. Here the fireplace anchors the middle and the remaining amenities unwind to the outside of the circumference. Here there is full ADA kitchen and ADA bathroom, queen size bed, dining table, and sitting area. The surrounding river, mountains and cultivated farmland can be viewed ten different ways through 8 windows and 2 French doors. Think of a random compass point and there you will find a window framing your gaze. There is an openness seldom seen in standard structures. After rubbernecking for a while, your first coherent thought is, ‘I can relax here’. And the reality is, you can.

Heaven on Earth
Our second time staying in this little slice of heaven was as incredible as our first visit. This place is a gem, well kept, private and a wildlife and bird sanctuary. The sound of nature - the birds and river flowing - absolutely soothes the soul. It is a perfect escape from the everyday world, and was an opportunity to completely unplug, relax and recharge. George is an absolute joy and made our stay even more special.

Quiet respite
I spent about ten days at Riverwalk Yurt and had the most restorative and gentle time in Paonia. The property is just beautiful and of course Paonia is the cutest, friendliest town. Thank you George and Devon for the lovely space. I'll definitely be back!!!

Perfect Setting!!!
Despite reading EVERY prior review, I was still unprepared for what a great spot this is. It was so peaceful with the beautiful flowers everywhere and the roaring river in the background. The deck was huge and the yurt was wonderful. It was fully stocked with all items you would need. I really hated to leave.....

Glorious connection to nature
This is one of our favorite spots in all the world and we never tire of coming here to reset and quiet the outside world for a bit. The gentle rumble of the river, trumpeting geese, and rustling of the trees bring such restoration to our souls!!

Perfect get away!
My husband and I were visiting a friend in Paonia but wanted our own space,as we have 3 dogs and she has 4. The yurt was the perfect spot for us. Spacious and cozy all at once! Whether you just want to lounge on the deck or drive up into the mountains for a hike the location is great. Plenty of land for the dogs to romp on and we loved that the deck was fenced with a small grassy area to let them out into in the morning knowing they couldn't wander off. The river is so nice if it had been a bit warmer I would have jumped in! Our lab and golden loved it. Lots of hawks flying over and on the last morning a golden eagle soared by! George and Devon are so nice and provided any and all information we needed regarding the property and surrounding area. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful place, fun experience.
The yurt and surrounding grounds and mountain view’s were beautiful. Truly what we called, a “glurt.” A glamorous yurt ! The AC given the heat wave in CO during our stay was essential for us, yet the nights cooled down and the windows’ cross-breeze was wonderful. My husband put the hot tub to good use after a hard day of fly-fishing. It was very relaxing. With the drought this year the river out front was a little too low and warm for fishing. However, my husband successfully fished the Gunnison River in nearby Hotchkiss. We also enjoyed visiting the area wineries and their views. We lacked for nothing in the yurt. We had plenty of room between the kitchen/dining area, living room and bedroom areas. We also liked the furnishings/decor. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was nice and large. We loved using the in-yurt music system. Everything was very clean. We loved having all of the windows. Devon and George were great to work with. Devon greeted us upon arrival with beautiful fresh flowers from her gardens. George was very helpful when I locked myself out of the yurt accidentally when my husband went fishing for the day. We would definitely recommend this yurt. A beautiful, private setting and a fun experience staying in a yurt.

A Labrador's perspective
Boy, did we have fun! I'm a five-year-old yellow Lab, and our parents took me and my older black Lab sister to George's yurt for five days. Every morning we got to run up and down the river and splash to our hearts' content. We got to see deer and a a big red fox and I flushed a pheasant (my favorite thing to do)! Our parents must have really enjoyed it, as they were in a good mood the whole time. There is so much to do in the area, both for humans and dogs. We really enjoyed Paonia, a wonderful small town with a real sense of community that my dad said was like going back in time to the 1940s when rural America was the backbone of the nation. Lots of nice places to eat, although our parents didn't bring us any doggie bags. They selfishly ate it all for themselves. We got to go across Grand Mesa and the really pretty Kebler Pass. Our parents stopped a lot to take pictures of all the bright gold aspen trees and my sister and I got to play a lot in the mountain lakes and sniff all kinds of interesting stuff. We didn't enjoy all the wineries as much as our mom and dad did (they wouldn't give us any to taste), but that was OK because we got to watch all the wildlife and the really pretty sunsets over the river every night from the cool walkway from our yurt. My sister and I think the yurt is the nicest place we have ever stayed. We are lobbying for a return trip. And for circular dog houses. We'll let you know how that goes.

Paradise Yurt
This is a truly magical and unique stay. George and Devon assure your comfort. The yurt is beautiful and surrounded by stunning nature. From the deck, you can hear the river or go in the hot tub. Wineries nearby, great local food- it’s one of my favorite places on earth.

Fall Equinox 2024
I booked this as a retreat for me following a hip replacement, a knee replacement and several eye surgeries following a detached retina. All within a short time of each other. It seemed perfect timing to celebrate some well being by getting away for a few days. I found River Walk and knew it was for me! I could not be happier with the beauty, peace and serenity of being in a gorgeous yurt on the river. I hope to one day return!

A wonderful get away.
This is a perfect place to chill out and recharge. The yurt is comfortable and accommodating; the hosts welcomed us with fresh flowers from the garden; there were wild turkeys and deer wandering about; and we spent pleasant mornings having coffee (and evenings drinking wine) in chairs overlooking the river. Lots of things to see and do in the valley, and lovely to have such a fabulous place to come home to.
