A place guests keep coming back to

The yurt is located in Easton, Maine and it sits on a piece of land that is 120 acres. The land is peppered with spruce and apple trees. There are hiking and snowshoeing trails out the door of the yurt. The ITS snowmobile trails are easily accessible. The yurt is cozy, comfortable and a great place to rest and relax while enjoying the outdoors.

The space
This yurt is sure to make your top ten list. Our space is unplugged yet the perfect opportunity for connection, made cozy by the wood stove, starlit by the dome skylight, and unique because well, it's a turquoise yurt! There is a fire pit outside, a griddle, and a cooler. Life at the yurt is simple and peaceful. We love being able to share the yurt and its proximity to the best recreation in Aroostook County. Whether a romantic getaway, a fun-filled family vacation, a belly laughing time spent with friends, or of course a soloist adventurer in need of tranquility and rejuvenation, it's our goal to make it happen for you!

From the host

Easton is a small town situated by the Canadian border in Northern Maine with a population of 1,300 people. Driving through town, you'll find a convenience store, post office, gas station, school system, many potato farms, several Amish homesteads, and one blinking light by which all residents give directions. Nearby, Presque Isle has plenty of shops, stores (you must hit-up Marden's), restaurants (most even accessible by snowmobile), kayak, canoe, and ATV rentals, and places to explore like the Nordic Heritage Center and Aroostook State Park.
