Perfect. Simply perfect.

Came to the yurt for a birding adventure at Sax Zim Bog. This yurt is so cute and cozy. Bed was comfy, wood stove and heater kept me plenty warm. Host was very helpful! They started a fire in the wood stove for me both days, so when I arrived at the yurt the fire was waiting for me and the yurt was nice and warm. I will definitely return.

2nd stay

This was our sending time at the yurt. We just love it there. The location is perfect for visiting the bog area. It is so cozy there and the Maley’s are such great hosts. They have added amenities since we were there last March such as an outdoor shower and more power boxes. The only other thing that I could possibly want is a birdfeeder or two that I could view out the window while sitting on the couch. If you are visiting in the winter, slippers would be good to bring as the floor stays colder. As I sit here pondering my next stay there, I asked my husband, “how hot do you think it gets inside the yurt during the summer?” We just might have to find Out. ou.

Great stay!

We will definitely be back. The hosts were fantastic and helpful. The yurt was warm and cozy. The outside bathroom was clean and heated. Cons: I had to hear my husband talk about wanting to build his own yurt for the next week and a half!! 😜 😆 But we did have a great time. It was my husband and I and our 18 yr old dtr . During the day we toured Sax Zim Bog . After a cold day, it was nice to come back to a warm yurt.

First stay in a yurt

Aaron and Megan welcomed us and showed us the basics of living in a yurt. The wood stove, the propane heater, and excellent bedding kept us warm on two very cold nights. The heated outhouse was a special bonus. We spent two days birding at the Sax-Zim Bog, which is very close. I was worried about the tire pressure warning my the car, with noplace near to get the pressure checked. Aaron added air the to the tires, that were fine. That's unusually wonderful service! Gregg

I fell in love with The Yurt

Picture this. You wake up in a king-size bed on lush, high thread count sheets and under a blanket that takes you back to winter in kindergarten where you felt cozy and safe. You stretch and wash your face in a pristine porcelain facebowl, and the towel you press to your face is the consistency of the center of a fresh buttery croissant. Then you walk outside, and you're the only one for miles. There are no humans. No neighbors. No profanity-laced arguments from fellow travelers. Only nature and oxygen-enriched air that has undertones of freshly cut pine trees. Because you literally are in the middle of a forest. You look up and you see the Aurora Borealis. As the sun begins to gently caress the horizon, you hear a whisper. Could be a squirrel. Could be a woodpecker. Could be a deer. And as the morning progresses, you're ready to go out adventuring, and everything you want to see is within a traffic-free, 20-minute drive. What I just described, what I just experienced first-hand, was more than just some yurt in the woods. This was a 5-star experience. Opulence, decadence, convenience, coziness, peace, privacy, natural. When I told friends I'd be staying in a yurt for 11 days, they assumed a certain kind of rustic experience. I'd be embarrassed to tell them I lived better than I do in my own home, better towels, better sheets, better bed, even the bathroom is bigger than my own (seriously, you could throw a dinner party in the bathroom it's so spacious). This was a resort.

If I could give more stars I would! This is a total experience. The hosts are so friendly and helpful. They are so happy to share their piece of paradise with others. If you want to get away from it all, this is the place. Birders, this is located in the bog with great birds waiting right outside your door! Walk down to the bridge and watch herons and beavers near the Whiteface River.

Birds galore and lots of Common Yellowthroats!

Mushrooms, wildflowers, and deer are everywhere!

Writing and nature weekend

I am working on a writing project and needed quiet focus time. This was a wonderful opportunity for each of us to have some quality solo time as well as together time. He enjoyed his time in the woods and on the trail.

Anniversary heaven

From the moment we pulled up to the moment we left we felt at home. The property was gorgeous, the yurt was just as pictured. The amenities on site were exactly what we needed for a weekend away. I wish i could give this 6 stars. We will absolutely book again.

Second time at the Yurt

This little spot in the woods is such a nice retreat. The lens window at the apex of the Yurt and the stove are more enjoyable than TV and the owls and grouse and nuthatches and chikadees and frogs are the best sounds for relaxing. The red squirrels were the comic relief. This year the nicer weather meant a few more ATVs on the adjacent trail but they stop when it gets dark, mostly, and the fence and tree screen make all but the noise of them easy to ignore.

Great Stay!

We had an amazing stay in the cozy yurt in a peaceful, wooded bog area. Megan is a great host and ensured our comfort with thoughtful touches. The beautifully designed yurt felt like home, and waking up to birds chirping in the serene surroundings was unforgettable. We left rejuvenated and highly recommend this hidden gem for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway.

Bird Sanctuary Glamping

We couldn't be happier with this oasis in the wilderness. We came to birdwatch in the Sax-Zim Bog, but saw plenty of species at the feeders next to the yurt. Megan communicated clearly at every step of the process so we knew what to expect and had all of the comforts possible - including a heater in the outhouse! Do yourself a favor: leave your phone off and stay for a week.

Excellent Weekend in Yurt

Megan and Aaron are excellent hosts that showed great hospitality and quick communication. I was very impressed with the quality and care they put into their yurt. The wood stove and propane heater do a fine job keeping the place warm (it was 20 below outside when I was there and 65 above in the yurt), and the water system and heated outhouse are cool touches. The place is super close to the Sax Zim bog Welcome Center, so it served as an excellent home base to embark on my adventures to the bog. If you are looking to visit the bog (or get a feel for off grid or yurt living in general), I highly recommend this property!

Birding and Glamping Together At Last!

This is a beautiful rustic new yurt (it's only been rented to the public for the last year or so and everything is so clean and wonderful and well stocked). It is very basic, but if you're looking at this listing, you probably know that. Stayed comfortable even though it was -26 outside at night and it's in the heart of wonderful birding country. Couldn't recommend it enough. A word of note… If you'd like to drink out of non-paper cups, or eat out of non-paper bowls, be sure to bring your own supplies with regards to this. But truly, you couldn't ask for a better experience than staying at this place. It even has birdfeeders out front so you can wake to the sounds and sights of Feathered friends, even in the midst of winter!

Cozy and convenient lodging for birding trip to the Bog.

The yurt was an easy drive from Sak-Zim Bog where we were birding for the weekend. When we arrived Megan met us and gave us all the information we needed to know about the wood stove, cooking facilities, battery power for our devices and the lights. The yurt was already warm and cozy upon arrival and stayed perfectly comfortable through our stay, even though a blizzard was raging outside. This is a charming and amazingly well appointed little house in the woods.

Magical place to stay!

The property was magical! The yurt was clean & very comfortable. We never got cold even though the temps were in the single digits. The hosts were extremely accommodating, stoked woodstove for us while we were out birding! They thought of everything: heated outhouse, electrical units in the yurt, bird feeders for viewing local birds, motion lights on path. Walk in was beautiful!
