This was a great adventure. It might not be for everyone but it sure was for us. There is a bit of a hike to the yurt, which made for a peaceful and secluded stay. Andrea and Clay greeted us and showed us around the place which was beautiful. There is a river right out the door that we swam in, and the yurt was so cozy inside.
This yurt was an amazing experience! It was so above and beyond what we expected! It was so cozy with the wood stove, and the kitchenette was perfect. Everything we needed for a great night was provided. There is a very nice 5 minute walk through the forest to get to the yurt, where you come out just a stones throw from the baddeck river. Beautiful location, we hope to be back as soon as possible!
