We were camping on the amazing Oregon Coast for the past few days.
Instead of going the tent route, we opted for a yurt which is pretty much a mini round cabin (with heat and electricity and furniture to sleep/sit on) on a campsite. We stayed at Fort Stevens State Park which is in the northwestern most part of Oregon, right on the coast.

I love tent camping, but put a baby in the mix and it didn't sound like a good time. In the yurt, Bennett had his own space to sleep in his playard and I was greatful to have some type of sound barrier since he wasn't feeling well and woke up cyring a lot in the middle of the night.

I loved the yurt and I think it will be hard to ever go back to a tent!











his highchair worked perfectly on the picnic table...

the infamous raccoon family made their rounds day and night in search of tasty treats...
(we heard they have been there for years and are super tame, they were about ten feet from us and not scared at all)
