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

Our cozy Flying 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.

Comfortable, well equipped Yurt. Quiet location, close enough to hiking trails and other amenities on the island. We really liked being able to see and hear more of nature than we would from a hotel. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Really a perfect place to stay for us.

Our stay was fantastic!! The yurt was exactly as described - so spacious! It was the perfect amount of room to make some meals at home, have two beds, and even get up to some pumpkin carving! It was so close to southwest harbor and Acadia, but in a more private spot - location couldn’t be beat. The free firewood at the fire pit was so convenient - and we were the only folks there every night. Plus Karen and Aaron the owners are so nice. Can’t wait to go back!

Above and beyond all our expectations. And so clean!!!! I could have stayed much longer. The kitchen had everything I could have wanted, a nice cutting board, nice sharp knives, even a really nice french press. It was a perfect location, very secluded and quiet. We will be making a trip here on an annual basis on how much we loved it! Aaron was a great, friendly host, always smiling!

The property is peaceful and quiet. There are plenty of trees for shade and sunny spots as well. The yurt had everything we needed. The owners were very kind and helpful. Arcadia National Park is close by. The town has two lovely bakeries. We saw a wonderful murder-mystery at the Arcadia Theatre too. Saw plenty of wildlife including a flock of turkeys just up the road. Enjoyable stay in a lovely location

Glamping with spa access

Beautiful and thoughtful place to stay. I felt close to nature and my partner didn’t have to go without access to any comfort. Our visit in early May meant rain was likely, so we planned on and got to enjoy the wellness center which was excellent. We also brought our dog along thanks to one of the pet-friendly yurts!

Bliss and Paradise

My wife and I stayed at Acadia Yurts for 5 incredible days. The property is beautiful and well maintained, quiet and peaceful, perfect for a week of relaxing and decompressing. It's a short 20 minute drive to Bar Harbor and 30 minutes from Acadia National Park. Highly recommended!!
