Where the Nantahala National Forest meets western North Carolina's mountain terrain, Sky Ridge Yurts provides yurt-style accommodations two miles south of Almond. The drive-in campground operates at a premium price point, with nightly rates ranging from $104 to $264 depending on the season and yurt selection.
Each site includes standard camping amenities like picnic tables and fire rings, with campfires permitted throughout the property. Guests have access to restroom facilities with showers, and the campground maintains WiFi connectivity alongside reliable cell service coverage. Pet owners can bring their animals, and firewood is available for purchase on-site. The Nantahala RV resort & Campground sits just half a mile away for campers comparing accommodation options in the area.
Description
Looking for a vacation that's a little different, a little more, a little better than your last one? That's why we're here. At Sky Ridge, we strive to give our guests a place where they can relax and reconnect with themselves and with nature without giving up the comforts of home.

Directions
We are located in the beautiful Nantahala Gorge just minutes away from the world-famous Nantahala Outdoor Center. Our road is very well maintained and cars (yes, even Ferraris!) make it up to the top of the Ridge with no problems. We would suggest only experienced motorcyclists attempt to ride to the top, as the road is groomed gravel all the way. In winter months when there is snow or ice on the ground, four-wheel drive is always a nice thing to have.
