About this property
New YURT on the bank of the Penobscot river. Near Baxter & National monument
Glamping at its best! Beautiful custom built yurt on the banks of the Penobscot river along the Grindstone Scenic Byway. Close to Baxter State Park and majestic Mount Katahdin as well as Katahdin Woods and Waters National Park. Two miles to Penobscot River Trails with miles of groomed cross country skiing and mountain biking. 4 seasons of hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, white water rafting, skiing, and miles and miles of snowmobiling!
1 hour to Bangor 2 hours to Bar Harbor
The space
30' foot custom build yurt sits on over an acre of private land with 200 feet of riverfront. Stunning views of the river from the large wrap around deck. 2 bedrooms and a loft provide sleeping for 8. Full kitchen and dining area, full bath with a washer and dryer. It is all here for you to enjoy!
Guest access
You will have full access to the property.
Other things to note
Although the snowmobile trails run directly across the river from the yurt, there is not a bridge at our location. We are situated directly between two snowmobile clubs that allow you to leave trailers overnight. Each club is approximately 10-15 miles either way on rt 11 . We do have room to park up to 2 trailers on site.
