5. Fire Fly yurts on Funky Bow Lane, Lyman (from USD 204)

While Augusta is Maine’s capital, the most populous and cosmopolitan city is Portland, home to about half a million people amid its metropolitan area. A seaside city located on a peninsula in southern Maine, it is famous for its historic Old Port district, which is filled with shops, restaurants, and cafes among its many narrow cobbled streets and old brick buildings. It even boasts an Arts District, home to institutions such as the Portland Museum of Art and the Portland Stage Company. While there are certainly many hotel accommodations in the city, more adventurous travelers and those eager to try yurt camping in Maine can try this stylish lodging on the premises of the Funky Bow Brewery, about a half-hour drive from the city center. The yurt has three beds, central heating, Wi-Fi, and a cozy outdoor deck, and you can head to the brewery for pizza and live music on Fridays and weekends.

9. Yurt on a coastal Maine farm, Harpswell (from 100 USD)

The more you explore Maine’s coastal area, the more surprises you will find. For instance, there are over 60 lighthouses all over the jagged coastlines, many of them offering picturesque vistas of the surroundings. Coastal towns like Brunswick, house museums, culture venues, and art festivals you would not have thought to find in this remote land. There are even salt-water farms around, in which farmers make use of the coast’s saline water. This yurt lies on the premises of such a farm, about 15 minutes from Brunswick, and has three beds and a basic kitchen. You can watch the farming activities as they raise organic livestock and vegetables, or you can hike along the tranquil coastline.

10. Yurt on Clearwater Lake, Industry (from USD 106)

The Maine coast is the easy part, and if you are up for a more rugged outdoor challenge, then venture into the dense forests of Maine’s interior lands. It is not as daunting as it seems, as there are well-maintained main roads and small towns that provide food or fuel supplies along the way. But away from the main roads are where you will find tranquil lakes and inviting hiking trails to explore this untouched part of America. And if you’re looking for rentals on Clearwater Lake in Maine, then this accommodation will surely interest you. This yurt accommodation is located right on the edge of Clearwater Lake, about 15 minutes’ drive from the town of Farmington. The amenities are basic (two beds, kitchen, and picnic table) but the location is utterly serene and secluded. Take in the lake’s tranquil beauty, then go hiking or mountain biking to waterfalls and hilltops to enjoy the abundant, unspoiled nature.

16. Hike-in yurt on top of hill, Orland (from USD 98)

Bangor is one of the best places to visit in Maine and literary buffs will know this place as the hometown of the popular horror fiction writer, Stephen King. There’s nothing eerie about this small city though, in fact it has a vibrant cultural scene that rivals much bigger cities. There are theater and symphony orchestra companies along the main street, as well as a slew of festivals and concerts throughout the year. As with the other two major Maine cities, the wild nature is mere minutes away from the city center, and this rugged yurt accommodation is about a half-hour drive from Bangor. And the drive takes you only to the footpath on the main road; you will have to hike about a quarter mile (400 meters) uphill to reach the lodging. Nonetheless, you will be rewarded with vistas of the surrounding hills, lakes, and wilderness, and the yurt is well stocked with amenities like futons, propane stove, first aid kits, and solar lights.

17. Pine Cone yurt on Pleasant Pond, Turner

The best place to begin your Maine exploration would be in Augusta, the state capital. Even though city officials have tried to rejuvenate the city center since the 1980s, it still retains the small-town atmosphere and leisurely pace befitting of Maine’s remoteness. You can visit the Maine State Museum, which has exhibits focusing on the state’s agricultural and industrial roots, and the Old Fort Western, the oldest surviving wooden fort in North America. Outside the city limits, the buildings quickly give way to forests, and this yurt accommodation, about a 40-minute drive from Augusta, is on the premises of the Great Outdoors Waterfront Event Center on the shores of Pleasant Pond. Paddleboard, canoe, and kayak rentals are available, while golf enthusiasts can enjoy the sports at the nearby Turner Highlands Country Club and Golf Course. This Maine yurt rental has two beds, an indoor fireplace, and a kitchen for a cozy stay.
