About
Kanaskat-Palmer State Park's yurts sit in a forest near the rapids of the Green River. It's a 16-foot-diameter, 10-foot-high yurt sleeping up to five people - a bunk bed (sleeps three) and a queen-size futon couch (sleeps two). Electric heat and lights are included, and the door locks, but there's no cooking allowed inside and no bathroom in the yurt itself - showers and restrooms are nearby. Bring your own bed linens. Pets are allowed in yurt Y16 only, for a $15/night fee (max two pets). The park's own page doesn't state a total yurt count.
Fees
Washington's 2026 yurt rate runs roughly $50-$89/night depending on season. Washington is restructuring this rate on Jan. 1, 2027 - check https://parks.wa.gov/passes-permits/reservations/overnight-roofed-accommodation-fees for the exact current price before booking.
Washington's own park pages for this unit don't state a season directly, but the state's statewide roofed-accommodation fee schedule publishes a real winter (Nov. 1-March 31) nightly rate alongside peak and shoulder season rates - real evidence a winter stay is bookable, so this is listed as available year-round on that basis.
