Chandler Brook runs through the back of the lot and meanders through a large marshland. Guests enter the front door with a key code provided before check in. The side door gives access to the trash bin andleads to the short, lit path to the outhouse. Inside the yurt you will find a kitchenette complete with a draining sink, insulated Stanley water jug, propane camp cook stove, enameled dinnerware set, Stanley cookware and french press, silverware, and serving utensils. It is fully furnished with a bar table, 6 barstools, couch, 2 arm chairs, coffee table, and a timber frame loft area! The loft area has a lower queen bed and an upper queen bed. *Note* bedding is not provided. Up to two dogs are welcomed with a pet fee of $20/night per dog. Doggy bags are provided for pet clean up and are located at the front door. Ample hooks are placed throughout the yurt for hanging jackets and drying wet gloves and hats near the propane fireplace. The yurt is equipped with a small solar system that powers the 12v LED lights and 4 USB outlets for charging phones, laptops, and iPads. *Note* guests should bring any adapters needed to plug into USB ports. A guest binder inside offers instructions for the solar power, stoves, a site map, and Bethel area dining and activities guides. Outside, 4 adirondack chairs are placed under strings of lights along the stone seating area. Solo Bonfire stoves are available for outdoor fires year round. Stacks of firewood, baskets of fire starter and kindling, and cast iron fireplace tools are included at no extra fee! In addition to the outhouse, guests have access to the centrally located bathhouse. A boardwalk and short trail offer a walking path to the bathhouse.The interior of the rustic/farmhouse style bathhouse feels warm and inviting. Stained concrete floors are throughout and guests will enjoy the radiant heat on their bare feet when getting out of the shower. The bathhouse has large rustic tub sinks for washing dishes and filling the water jug provided in each yurt. It houses a ladies' and gent's side, each with 2 private hot showers and 2 toilet stalls. There is a handicap accessible toilet stall available in both bathrooms.
Guests will enjoy the surrounding forest and trails that we are continuing to expand. Our primary goal at Western Maine Yurts is to provide our guests with a four-season lodging option that is as connected to nature as possible. We aim to give a more luxurious and convenient camping/glamping experience where you can enjoy a hot shower after a day of outdoor activities. We hope you will pause to listen to the rain on the roof, birds singing in the morning, and the breeze blowing in the trees. Enjoy a cozy cuddle on the couch with your favorite drink. And get out and explore all the Western Maine and the Bethel area have to offer!

Great spot for short getaway
Overall, the yurt was located near town and the ski areas.The biggest complaint was the neighbors. Partied two nights in a row loudly and late…Noisiest I’ve ever had the wilderness be….It was a short stay I wished we could have acclimated to the place more. Would love to explore the trails and more around Bethel. Building and bathhouse are nicely done. Outhouse…needed some lime plus I’m not sure the party goers next door were great to share it with…bad aim.

The ultimate apres ski
We had such a wonderful weekend staying here! Check-in was super easy and the hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. The yurt was clean and cozy and the stove kept it nice and toasty. The bath house was also beautiful and very clean. 10 minute drive to Sunday River. When a big snow storm was coming we messaged the owners to see if we could possibly extend our stay one more night and were able to. This was the perfect spot to relax after skiing a powder day! We will definitely be back and plan to bring our dog, Monty, next time! Thank you!

Great Weekend in Bethel
This yurt was perfect for a weekend away! A very cool experience and having the Solo Stove was a great addition. The bathhouse is a short walk along a boardwalk, and the showers were perfect after a day skiing at Sunday River. Can't wait to return!

Always a great stay
This was our second time staying at the yurts. The yurts and bathhouse are very clean. Definitely recommend!
This was so much fun for our family, it was our first experience staying in a Yurt. We would come back again and recommended to anyone looking for a “glamping” adventure!

Ski hide-away!
We camp all the time as a family(camper not tent)but never had experienced a yurt. It combined some aspects of camping but also the comforts of home. The property was clean and had a lot of modern farmhouse touches. We really enjoyed our time here and will definitely be back.
