This lodge is located 5.6 mi (9.1 km) from Bark Lake and 8.7 mi (14 km) from Opeongo River Provincial Park. The guestroom includes a kitchenette, a fireplace, and a refrigerator.
Our Yurt is a 26 ft-diameter, traditional Mongolian Yurt, made with fabrics and felts that are time-tested for comfort and can weather the elements.
Tucked away in the quiet woods, just 30 minutes from Algonquin Park, Madawaska Yurt offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation for you!
Nestled among the trees, our Yurt and property provides both privacy & tranquility, while beautiful furnishings and thoughtful amenities ensure a cozy, comfortable stay.
Open-year-round, we invite you to embrace the outdoors - whether it's fishing, hiking, swimming, snowmobiling - or simply unwind with a drink by the fire!
Our property is conveniently located off a seldom-used highway, and the yurt is tucked at the edge of our woods.
Being the only inhabitable structure on the property, this ensures privacy and quiet, quenching your need to "get away from it all". ________
ON-SITE COMPLIMENTARY PARKING The parking available on our property is large enough for two vehicles, and there is space for you to bring your boat or trailer housing your ATVs, PWCs and snowmobiles. ________
CLOSE TO THE WATER We are located between two beautiful lakes, both with public dock access.
By car, Cross Lake is 2 minutes away and Bark Lake is 4 minutes away. Bark Lake also has a lovely beach front if you just want to chill out by the water.
The public dock of the Madawaska River is a 12 minute drive. There is also a beach with a children's play area. ________
CLOSE TO ALGONQUIN PARK This world-renown park is a 30-minute drive from the Yurt! Borrow our Park Pass for your hiking, canoeing, swimming or cross-country skiing adventure! ________
CLOSE TO ATV, SNOWMOBILE, CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING, BIKING and HIKING TRAILS Our woods are not available to be explored by guests, however, we are located close to many trails in the area!
The recently-updated South Algonquin Rail Trail crosses a distance of 45 kilometres! The trail is wide (and safe) enough for multiple uses at the same time - at any time of year!
Snowmobiling in the winter months is rampart in the area, and there are a accessible trails near our property! _________
SAY "I DO" IN NATURE'S EMBRACE 🥂♥️
