Nestled in the trees on a large deck with the sounds of birds and squirrels all around, this unique structure spans 15 ft across with 14 triangular sides. It holds a double bed, dinning table, rocking chair, 3 burner stove, sink with water, full kitchenette and all the cooking utensils you need. The wood stove keeps the space very warm and cozy and we offer professional massage and reiki. You can walk, ski or bike for hours along a river. Or visit towering gypsum cliffs that host huge bat caves..
Our yurt is tucked away in the trees of our 20 acre wood lot. We provide lots of wood and fire starter for the wood stove but guests should have experience with wood stoves (or be really keen to learn). The stove is big enough to easily heat the whole yurt to cozy comfort but guests should expect to have to keep the stove going in order to keep the space warm and this may mean stoking it once in the night. We provide lots of extra blankets and two pairs of extra slippers for those who forget to bring their own. The solar panel creates enough power to run the lights, charge a cell phone and sometimes a computer but not much more.
The space is beautiful, unique and quite dreamy but it is rustic. There is a composting toilet next to the yurt (with hand sanitizer but no sink) and outdoor showers (with hot water) near our farm house. There is a three burner propane cook stove, cooking and dining wares and a small sink for dishes. There are all the utensils that you may need to cook for yourself but there is limited counter space so cooking elaborate meals is possible but could be cumbersome. There is a cooler and we can stock it with ice packs upon request. We supply coffee and a french press,.
We also offer massage and reiki to guests for $90 (60 min). Morghain Lee is a massage therapist and Reiki Master and enjoys blending these two body therapies for a holistic healing experience.
There is an outdoor fire pit and star gazing chairs. We ask that you only use natural soaps in the shower, the sink, pond or river. We have some Dr Bronners if you like:)
Cell reception on the land depends on the provider but most people have weak service (one or two bars). Enough to maintain a phone connection (if you are not walking around too much) but not enough to download videos. Some people have more or less.
We do allow pets but we ask for an extra $15 contribution to compensate for the extra cleaning. We also ask that dogs not be on the bed and that they don't chase our chickens or kittens.
There are outdoor showers available in spring, summer and fall when the pipes won't freeze. For those wanting to stay for longer periods in the winter we can discuss usage of the shower in our house.

The best yurts in Bay of Fundy guide
Where to go
Saint John, New Brunswick
Those arriving via ferry will land in the seaside city of Saint John. Once known as a somewhat gritty, industrial-focused destination, Saint John is fun, vibrant, and filled with travel attractions. A must-visit spot is the Saint John City Market, Canada’s oldest continuing farmers’ market and an ideal location to pick up local delicacies, including smoked fish, blueberries, and maple syrup.
Fundy National Park, New Brunswick
A superb destination for camping, hiking (there are more than 30 trails), golf, cycling, swimming, kayaking, and birdwatching, Fundy National Park is an excellent spot to view the region’s famous tides. When the tides are low, you can see the area’s well-known “flowerpots.” These rusty red stone sea stacks owe their distinctive appearance to the forces of erosion.
Wolfville, Nova Scotia
Wolfville is the gateway to Nova Scotia’s famed wine industry. As part of the Annapolis Valley, Wolfville is a prime growing area and you’ll find ample farmers’ markets, gardens, and—of course—wine. Key names include Benjamin Bridge, Luckett Vineyard, and Domaine de Grand Pré.
Digby, Nova Scotia
This seaside fishing town is where you’ll go to catch the ferry to New Brunswick, but you’ll want to hang around for a few days. The community likes to boast that it has the most delicious sea scallops in the world and seafood restaurants abound. There’s a vibrant arts scene here as well. Renowned Canadian folk artist Maud Lewis lived by Digby for decades and visitors can check out the memorial to her tiny home where she painted thousands of pieces of art.
