About this property

The Yurt or 'Ger' is a Mongolian structure, comparable to a First Nations Tipi. Used by nomadic peoples, it was originally made of felt and furs. After being westernized by folks from Oregon and British Columbia, the Yurt has been transformed.

Hand painted from floor to ceiling, this 12' diameter Mongolian Yurt comes with a double bed, electric heater and camp chairs to look at the great views outside. It sits on a small deck in between high trees and the other yurts. On clear nights you can open the canvas roof and see stars through the skylight. A bathhouse with shower and washroom is located near this yurt.

Japanese cedar soaking tubs are available for surcharge next to the yurts, some with an unbeatable view of the Atlantic Ocean, Bird Islands and our freshwater pond.

Cute but not what I expected

Yurt was adorable. View wasn’t great and the hot tub, which I cancelled stays on the deck, takes up a lot of the deck and interfered with the view. Views from other yurts were much better. There are common areas for cooking but nowhere to wash dishes except for the staff kitchen. I would definitely stay again but would choose a different yurt and get better instructions regarding how to open and close the roof portal. I messed it up when opening and was unable to close it. I couldn’t find any staff to help since everyone had left for the evening. I would plan to use the restaurant instead of trying to cook.
