Close to Acadia, local preserves, hiking, and pet friendly swimming at Jones Pond. We loved exploring the trails and local fish camps in the area, followed by peaceful campfires back at camp by night. A short hike in and you are at your own private woodside camp. While you may want to bring bug spray in the warmer months due to close proximity of the pond, the owner provides tiki torches, which is added protection from an easy campfire. The owner was quick to respond and extremely hospitable to any questions we had during our stay. We can’t wait to come back as soon as we are able and we are sure it only gets better with the seasons. Be sure to also check out Schoodic point and Lunch on the Wharf for easy day trips. Thanks again to the wonderful hosts!" }, { "@type": "Review", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Digna E." }, "datePublished": "October 17, 2022", "reviewBody": "My partner and I had a great time at this campsite! We wanted a quiet place away from the city for our 11th anniversary. This place had everything we were looking for, e.g., nature and complete solitude. Matthew was very responsive and even offered us to use his canoe and kayak, plus he had many helpful tools, e.g., lights, paper towels, bug spray, tiki torches, chairs, a table, and the list goes on. We were so thankful for everything that the owner provided that we didn't even have to use all of our gear. I also really loved the two trails! Everything was so peaceful that I wanted to return in the spring." }, { "@type": "Review", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jess L." }, "datePublished": "September 1, 2023", "reviewBody": "Yurt and property in pristine condition, very well styled and maintained. All the necessary amenities are provided for a very comfortable elevated camping experience. Jugs of water on property, plug in ready power bank, kitchen utensils, paper towels- many things we though we would need to carry in but didn’t! We got caught in some heavy rains (late August) but with the right footwear and rain gear the yurt was completely dry and cozy to return to. We are definitely considering a return trip next summer! Thank you Matthew" } ] } ``` [robots.txt](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/robots.txt) · [llms.txt](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/llms.txt) · [sitemap](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/sitemap_index.xml)
