5 acres hosted by Megan S.
1 lodging site
Our tent and yurt sites are located on 5 acres of private woods and are 4 acres apart to allow for maximum privacy for our guests!
Parking for both sites are shared. The tent is 50 yards up a rustic wooded path through the woods and the yurt is an 800 yard (10 minute) uphill walk from the parking area.
Both sites are adjacent to our local network of hiking/biking trails that connect to the summit of Mount Agassiz, which offers stunning views of Franconia Notch. Additionally, within a half hour drive, you have access to some of the best hiking in the North East. We are happy to provide recommendations! The surrounding towns are home to three different breweries, numerous restaurants serving up delicious food and quaint main streets.
Through the generous permission of surrounding landowners and the stewardship of the Bethlehem Trails Association, guests can access this trail network to enjoy the views from the summit of Mount Agassiz for top notch single-track mountain biking.
We live one town over and are just a phone call away. If you walk the trails, you may encounter a friendly neighbor's dog but all our guests enjoy the privacy and solitude the mountain provides.
You can follow us on Insta @yurtdiaries.Our glamping wall tent is best suited for adventurous guests seeking a getaway in an off-grid setting.
From the marked parking area, the tent is located 50 yards up a rustic wooded path through the woods. Please be prepared to carry your belongings. A headlamp or flashlight is essential to help you navigate to and from the tent at night.
The 168 square foot canvas tent is 12x14 with extra tall 6-ft walls. The front opens onto an extended 8-ft deck with extra seating, and the back window looks out to the forest.
The tent has a king-sized bed. Towels, bed linens and extra blankets are provided.
Adirondack deck chairs on the covered front porch will allow you to enjoy the stillness of the evening.
**Woodstove** There is a wood burning stove in the tent that is available to use. If you would like to have a fire, please plan to bring your own fire wood and carefully follow all safety instructions. We provide woolen blankets and down bedding, but the temperatures can be unpredictable during the late spring and fall. We highly recommend a careful look at the forecast prior to your arrival.
We are an off-grid property without electricity or running water. We provide 2 small battery packs for USB/USB-C devices to power phones, 2 bedside fans and rechargeable lamps.
At the parking area 50 yards from the tent is the outbuilding with an outdoor toilet (which looks like a normal toilet!), and a heated shower. A 35 gallon water tank coupled with a propane heater and pump, provide water for the outdoor shower and potable drinking water.
***Please Note*** We do not provide any cooking or eating supplies. We do provide a picnic table next to the parking area if you choose to bring food, but we ask that you please store any food you choose to bring in your car. This is an attempt to reduce smells and avoid property damage from wildlife including several black bears who make their home on the mountain.

This property is not appropriate for large or loud groups. We ask that you respect both the natural beauty of the mountain as well as the stillness and silence it provides.
We live locally and are just a phone call away should you need anything!
No Smoking
We have a strict no smoking policy at the tent (both inside and outside). Any smoking will result in a $200 fine and a complaint to Hipcamp. We have children and families staying with us during the season and take the cleanliness of our space very seriously.
