Stay in one of our Magical Yurts
Looking for a unique experience?
These circular, tent-like structures made of felt and horse hair have traditionally been used by nomadic peoples for thousands of years. Our authentic yurts and accompanying furniture are ornately hand-painted by families in Mongolia.
Nestled among the wilderness at Cabot Shores, our authentic Mongolian yurts are open year-round, most equipped with wood stoves. On a fine summer night, sleep with the top flap open and gaze at the stars.
There are two wooden yurts and nine authentic Mongolian yurts, nestled among the wilderness at Cabot Shores. Some have incredible views of the Atlantic Ocean and Church Pond, while others are more secluded, surrounded by forest for privacy.

Rated One of the Coolest Places to Go Glamping in Canada
"From fully furnished chalets to geodesic domes and yurts, there is an accommodation for every type of camper here. But one of the coolest on offer? The Treetop Village, which is composed of geodesic domes on high stilts so you can sleep among the trees. Each dome offers something different — breathtaking views of the Atlantic, famous views of the full moon and stars. Don’t forget to visit the private beach while you’re there, too."
