Earn this patch by being the first to spend a night outside at a new Hipcamp.
Near Acadia National Park
Within a 30-minute drive from the Thompson Island Information Center.
For the months of May and September, we offer our off-grid yurt. Fueled by propane (for wall lamps and cooking) and supported by on-demand, generator-powered well water, the yurt stays warm and cozy in all weather. See what our other guests have had to say about their stays- "We were so at peace when we got here we just spent the rest of the day hanging at the yurt enjoying the peace and quiet today we are heading to the ocean!"- Jody from New Hampshire, July 2021. "We could not have found a more idyllic place, plus it was our first experience in a yurt. We found your notes about Acadia super helpful and the yurt was just so beautiful and cozy. Having a hot bath and a little fire in the wood stove after a day of biking the Carriage Roads and swimming at Sand Beach could not have been more perfect. So glad we were at the yurt to enjoy the area and Acadia. We had an incredible stay and are hoping to come back next summer."- Jenn & Neil, August 2020.We offer an off-grid 24' yurt with propane wall lamps, cooking, and generated hot water on demand from the well. Acadia National Park is easy to reach within 25 minutes. Spectacular Schoodic Point is a nice drive up the coast. And Blue Hill is a charming village on the next western peninsula (across the river from Ellsworth on Rt.172).
