Are you planning a long day exploring the beautiful Cabot Trail? Enhance your experience at Cabot Shores by adding a hot tub to your stay!
The question we get asked the most is which yurts and domes have hot tubs at Cabot Shores? The next question is usually which options have hot tubs on their decks? Keep reading for all the details!
Hot tubs are included in a number of packages such as the honeymoon package. You can also add a hot tub for an added fee (from $50-75 plus tax per day) to your desired accommodation!
We have 3 kinds of hot tubs currently at Cabot Shores:
Soft Tubs (Large and Small)
Accommodate 2-5 People
Soft Tubs is a brand name for some of our more traditional hot tubs, powered by electricity. They are NOT inflateable, they are solid. They are heated by heat generated by the pump and jets, so if you pull the plug it will lose heat. These hot tubs can be used at night or even the next morning before check out.
The Larger Soft Tubs are on the decks of the Green, Tan and Blue Chalets.
The Smaller Soft Tubs (2-3 people max) can be placed on the decks of the following:
- The Forest Yurt
- White Moon Yurt
- Tiger Yurt
A Smaller Soft Tub is also located within walking distance from the following:
- Little Sky Yurt (on a deck about 10 feet away)
Cedar Tubs
Accommodate 2-3 People
Our first tubs at Cabot Shores were Japanese Ofuro Cedar Tubs. In Japan, folks take a shower and then sit in these tubs with the nice smell of cedar, as a practice or even a ritual. The Cedar Tubs are heated by water heated by a wood stove, electric hot water heat and sometimes solar. The Cedar Tubs are more like a bath tub. Like the soft tubs, we aim for temperatures between 100-106 degrees Farenheit. Often we will have it above this temperature so by the time you go into the tub, say after dinner or dark, it may have gone down to between 100-104 degrees F.
Location of Cedar Tubs:
- On deck of Cedar Yurt
- On the deck of the Tiny House
- On decks of the Eagle Dome and Blue Heron Dome
- The cedar tubs can be moved to the Apple Dome.
- At a spot in between the Big Red Yurt and Little Blue Yurt (this tub is heated by water from water heats or from a wood stove which you can keep going)
Unfortunately, the cedar tubs cannot be moved to the Beaver Cove Dome because there is no lower deck and it is out of range of our water.
Big Hot Tubs
Accommodate 4-6 People
If you have more than 3 in your group, you may wish to opt for a larger tub and these are available within walking distance to many accommodations. They are available in the following locations:
- One large hot tub is on the patio of Whiff’s Lodge, under the deck facing Church Pond and the Atlantic.
- The other large hot tub is at the Event Space
