This weekend marks the beginning of our 12th season running Acadia Yurts (WOW!) and we were blessed to kick it off with a full house: a yoga retreat 🧘‍♀️, a birthday celebration 🥳, and two very well-behaved dogs 🐾

While we sign off our messages as “Aaron & Karen”, is so much more than just the two of us. We have an incredible team of plumbers, site contractors, landscapers, cleaners, electricians and even our parents—who all pour love into this property every spring to prepare for your arrival!  That care is something our guests feel when they stay here.

One of our favorite small business philosophies comes from the book by : Service is what you offer; Hospitality is how you make people feel.

That’s our ultimate goal, for every guest to feel welcomed & valued because at the end of the day we are honored you choose to spend your precious moments here!

As many of you know, our business is currently listed for sale, but that doesn’t change how we show up. You can count on us to continue delivering the same level of care and attention during every stay for as long as we own this property.

LOOKING AHEAD: our yurts are fully booked next weekend (Mother’s Day 💐), but we still have two Tiny Houses available—and the weather is looking beautiful ☀️  Book direct and take 10% off your stay, 2-night stays available, link in bio!

We look forward to sharing our neck of the Maine woods with you!

Spring has arrived on Mount Desert Island 🌿 and our + reopen May 1st! We’re currently offering a 10% discount for all May and June stays (info in bio)!

May is one of our favorite times to visit — before the summer crowds, when the trails are quiet and feels like it’s all yours. With Seal Cove Road closed to vehicles through May 15th, our road becomes a peaceful dead end, and you can access Acadia National Park just 200 feet from our parking lot. Think slow, unhurried mornings in nature from the moment you step outside.

What to expect in May:
• Full kitchens in every unit — no need to rely on restaurant hours
• Early-season calm + space to explore
• Local dining gradually reopening, with most spots in full swing by Memorial Day weekend

Many guests love this time of year for the balance — cozy nights cooking in, and days spent out on the trails.

✨ Check current availability through the link in our bio and plan your May escape!
