I gratefully came upon the Acadia Yurts on VRBO. Right away I fell in love -- seeing it in person was even more wonderful! It is in a comfy, cozy wooded area that provides a comfy, cozy stay. Karen & Aaron are wonderful hosts and their love and passion for this yurt village they have built definitely shows! I would HIGHLY recommend staying at the Acadia Yurts!!!!

We loved staying at the yurts. It is a great location. We loved that it was on the quieter side of the island as last time we stayed right in Bar Harbor. We enjoyed our evening cooking out on the grill and drinking wine after long days of adventures biking and hiking! We also recommend the float tank and the infrared sauna. They were so relaxing and the ease of scheduling was a plus.

Overall a positive experience. Would stay again. The common/shared food pantry is a nice option. Does take about 20 minutes to get to entrance of Acadia.

My husband and I loved the property. It was cool to stay in a Yurt. They utilized
the space perfectly. There is plenty of storage and places to put things. It was quiet at night and in the mornings. It was close to several hikes and not a bad drive to Bar Harbor downtown.

What a great vacation rental. We went with our children and several other families who also stayed at the yurts. It felt like a lot like camping but with comfortable beds, bathrooms, kitchen, A/C and heat! Close drive to town and Acadia national Park. Can’t wait to come back!

I can't stop talking about my stay at Acadia Yurts. They were exactly as advertised. Karen and Aaron thought of everything to make this "glamping" experience a 10 out of 10! Clean, cozy and a little slice of heaven after a day of adventuring at Acadia National Park!

We loved our stay at Acadia Yurts! It was very comfortable, clean, and surprisingly spacious! We loved that linens, towels, pots/pans were provided so we had much less to pack than when we stayed in a cabin in Lake George, NY last summer! We would highly recommend this cool/comfortable way to live in nature while exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia!!

Quiet, easy stay with lots of privacy & space
We so enjoyed our stay here. The space, quietness, ability to cook some meals, do laundry and be apart from other touristy areas was all appreciated. Clean, spacious and in keeping with our ideas on how to be gentle to our environment. Highly recommend! We hope to return.

Just what we needed
Acadia Yurts was just what we needed. Quiet. Peaceful. All the comforts of home (minus a TV which turned out to be wonderful). Owners are super nice and go out of their way to ensure you have a nice stay. Our family had the best time with board games checked out of their stash. Would love to go back and take more family.

Beautiful unique experience!
My family and I absolutely loved the yurt life! Really worked for us as a majority of us are not well suited for traditional camping. I liked that it was close to a lot of acadias trails and only a 30 minute drive to bar harbor! Very good overall experience highly recommend!

We have visited MDI multiple times staying in traditional hotels in Bar Harbor. This was a wonderful alternative my family thoroughly enjoyed. The yurt was exactly as pictured, very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was a close drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. We are already thinking about our return. Thank you Karen and Aaron!

We loved this unique accommodation. Close enough to everything while getting out of the crowds in Bar Harbor.
5.0
We had a great time. The yurt was better than our expectations. It was spacious, and well thought out. Everything in the yurt was good quality and beautiful. Though It is comfortable for a couple, but might get crowded with more, since the second bed is a sofa bed. We also thought that our trip would have been even more enjoyable if we had come with some friends . There was not much to do in the evenings. And, we hardly saw our neighbors. A week duration can be a long time. The fireplace is by the main lot, which was a little further out. Also, we had to park in the main lot, and the walk was a little long, esp. in the nights. But overall we enjoyed the yurt, its great location and the beauty of Acadia NP!!

Clamping at its best
