Default Wood Stove Recommendation

Looking for recommendations for a wood stove to heat a 24' diameter yurt (with 10' walls). We live in the highlands of Virginia, nestled in the mountains between Virginia and West Virginia, and have located the yurt in a relatively protected area. We have decided on a particular brand of soapstone wood stove so our question now is what capacity to purchase. We've heard that

heating

the yurt should be relatively easy and a small stove will be fine. Then we've heard from others that we should step up into a the next size wood stove (exceeding the yurt's square footage) to account for heat loss. [Note: other than the manufacturer's standard

insulation

for the walls and roof no additional

insulation

has been installed]
