We all know what a strain it can be finding space for out-of-town guests during the holidays.

Have you considered the backyard tepee option?

Through Nov. 25, Colorado Yurt Co. is offering 15% off the already discounted Earthworks Basic Tipi Value Package. For $462 and up, you’ll get everything you need (but the poles) to pitch a 12-foot tepee, including detailed instructions on how to tie a clove hitch knot. Poles ($197 to $1,097) are sold separately.

A sales representative for Colorado Yurt Co. recommended the 16-foot version ($654) for two adults (your in-laws perhaps?) and the 14-footer for kids ($562).

Asked about assembly, she responded, “It’ll be easier the second time you do it.”
