Our yurt was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Lots of space to spread out and the grounds were wonderful. A great place to come "home" to after being out hiking and biking. So peaceful in Southwest Harbor. Our only complaint was the small shower and limited number of towels for 5 days. On site laundry was great too.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful setting, spacious yurt, well-equipped kitchen, beautiful grounds, and the convenience of having laundry on site after your hiking and biking adventures. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the shower and towels. The shower is a standard stall shower, which is shown in our listing photos, and as an eco-friendly property, we encourage guests to reuse towels and linens throughout their stay since we do not provide daily housekeeping. We truly appreciate your understanding and are so happy you enjoyed your time with us!

The best managed property I have ever stayed at. Superb communication with Aaron and Karen. We cooked in every night and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The pots and pans and dishes and glassware were high quality and the kitchen was spotless.
A delightful spot to enjoy a cappuccino and a bowl of oatmeal!
What a wonderful feeling to walk into the Yurt. It was spacious, well appointed and so clean!
