Yurt Glamping on the Quiet-side of Acadia National Park!

Our cozy Sargent Mtn Yurt sleeps up to four guests and offers a unique blend of comfort and adventure. Yurts are circular, tent-like structures with a wood lattice frame and sturdy canvas exterior-an ancient design originating from the nomadic tribes of Asia. Today, modern yurts have become a popular vacation experience from coast to coast, offering a memorable alternative to traditional lodging.

Inside, you'll find a warm, inviting space thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials. The yurt features a comfortable queen bed and a queen-size sleeper sofa, making it ideal for couples, friends, or small families. The kitchenette is equipped with a ¾ refrigerator, apartment-size stove and oven, sink, and all necessary cookware and dishware for simple meal prep.

A full bathroom with a stand-up shower adds everyday comfort, while the efficient heat pump and air conditioning keep the space cozy year-round. All linens are provided for your convenience.

Whether you're exploring Acadia National Park, relaxing on Mount Desert Island, or simply looking to try something new, this yurt offers a peaceful and distinctive home base for your Maine adventure.

The Yurt was spotless, the host thought of everything a traveler might need. Little things like lots of hooks and hangers, and places to store things for the stay. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the host stayed in contact and was available to us if needed. The property was beautiful and peaceful.We would definitely stay again if in the area.

Acadia Yurts was an incredible place to stay while visiting the national park! The yurt community is super cute and the check-in process was beyond easy. Aaron and Karen were lovely hosts. They provided clear directions to the property, and their check-in and check-out processes were simple and very reasonable. It's near enough to the park to be convenient without being right in the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor.Walking into our rented yurt, we were struck by the cleanliness and overwhelmingly homey feel. The decor is minimalist, but perfect for the space. It was hard to believe we were glamping! The skylight at night is everything! There was plenty of space for my husband, dog and I, and all the essentials were available. The sofa was very comfortable. The bed felt a bit firm for us, but that is very subjective. :) Overall, we were beyond happy with our stay and will definitely be back!

Acadia Yurts was cozy, clean, quaint and provided a spacious Yurt for 2 adults and 2 dogs! The grounds are a perfect place for anyone looking to get away and stay in touch with nature. Karen and Aaron’s hospitality made our stay that much more enjoyable.

Acadia Yurts

Quiet & peaceful- just what we needed after a busy day in and around Acadia Nat’l park. Enjoyed “all the comforts of home” in a yurt nestled in the woods. This was our second time staying here and it was as special as the first time.
