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".
