There's nothing like staying in a yurt. If you want to camp and take in all that Moosehead and Maine have to offer, a yurt will show you so much beauty while ensuring you stay comfortable. Our yurts have all the amenities you could want, like the essentials. Power up your devices because there's enough electricity to go around for the whole family, and if you choose our bunk-bed yurts, you can fit up to 6 guests. If you prefer the glamping philosophy of life, you can fit 1-2 guests with a king-size bed, nightstand, and electricity. But what's more, our yurts are in a semi-private area and surrounded by trees, so you can feel one with nature while staying in one. Not feeling the yurt? No problem! We also offer a lodge and campground. Whether you want to camp without camping or want to get back to nature, you can do it all without sacrificing comfort. You'll have a weekend and experience in Moosehead you'll remember forever.
