About this property

Big Red Yurt at Cabot Shores Wilderness Resort

This 16' diameter Mongolian Yurt comes with a queen and a twin bed, loveseat, table and chairs inside. There is an electric heater and a wood stove for colder months. This yurt comfortable sleeps 3 people, but the loveseat can be pulled out to accommodate a 4th person. On clear nights you can open the canvas roof and see stars through the skylight. The Big Red Yurt sits on a deck with a great view of Church Pond & the Atlantic Ocean. A Japanese cedar soaking tub is located beside the yurt. The water is heated by a wood stove attached to the tub and can be rented for an additional fee. A bathhouse with shower and washroom is located a few steps away. You can also bring your furry friend for an additional $15 a night.
