About this property

Small red yurt at Cabot Shores Wilderness Resort

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 Used by nomadic peoples, it was originally made of felt and furs.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 beside 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.
A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free resort offers books, games, and a video library. Amenities include table tennis.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

My expierence
My stay at the yurt was not the best. We had to arrive before 8:30 which is hard when you are travelling from one place to another, I will say they did accommodate us in being a little late. On the website it says that there is a hot tub available to people who stay there, but when we got there it was an extra charge which nobody had told us. The trail out to the ‘ferry’ is definitely not kept up. I also was lead to believe these ‘yurts’ were in the woods further with more space between them, when really they are very close to one another. When I had went to the bathroom there was no soap to wash your hands with after. When you are paying a lot of money for this, I would expect it to be a little cleaner and more organized with the basic essentials you need to wash your hands. I was very disappointed with this place as the pictures are very different than the actual place. Hopefully you read my review and update a couple things for the next people who are paying this much to stay. Thank you.
