Outdoor Adventures at Maine Forest Yurts
Call: 207-400-5956

Our campground is located on Runaround Pond in Durham, Maine and spans over 100 acres of wilderness. It is ideal for an overnight, a weekend excursion or a week long retreat. Our fully furnished yurts are a perfect way to experience glamping in Maine and New England. The property is 5 minutes from Bradbury Mountain State Park, 15 minutes from Freeport/L.L. Bean and only 30 minutes north of Portland.

We are open year-round. Come experience unique seasonal adventures including kayaking, canoeing, fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, cross country skiing, ice skating, snowshoeing, or just sit back, relax and take in the natural surroundings.

The property is located on Runaround Pond which is composed of two shallow, river-like tributaries approximately 2 miles long. This quiet pond is perfect for a peaceful paddle in a canoe where you can view wildlife including beavers, otters, eagles, osprey, kingfishers, herons, frogs, turtles, bass and pickerel. And if you are interested in winter camping, the pond makes for great ice skating, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. We are family friendly and dog friendly. Children and dogs are free, so a visit to Maine Forest Yurts makes for a great family vacation!

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY!

“The Yurts were extraordinary, each detail more thoughtful than the last. The property breathtaking! I had the best sleep I have had in literally years and I thank you both for that. Your warmth and care came through in making us feel welcome from the beginning. We did a lot of exploring and came across so much beauty!”

Patty & Fredo

“We had a great stay! The yurt was perfectly stocked, clean, and of course surrounded by beautiful woods and trails! Can’t wait to be back again some time! Page and Bob were great hosts paying attention to every detail! Thank you again!”

Cameron

“What a unique way to spend a portion of our honeymoon! Bob was very accommodating, and it was fabulous to hear his stories from when he was a contestant on Survivor. The yurt was super spacious, very comfortable. Highly recommended for those wanting something memorable, something different.”

Sarah

“This was our first time staying in a yurt, and we loved it. Like 5-star camping. Yurt and outhouse were very clean and inviting, and the stars at night are beautiful. We’ll be back!”

Jesse

“Bob is a gem, a hospitable and brilliant storyteller, an inspiring doer, and a visit to this place is an adventure. We were late in arriving and not very well prepared; Bob accommodated us with grace and humor, stayed late to tell us his amazing stories, and made sure we had a great visit. “

Brad & Claire

“We were delighted with our beautiful yurt, cozy atmosphere with a woodstove, kitchen, an abundance of natural lighting, comfortable seating & sleeping areas, walking trails, and best of all, our dog who goes everywhere with us had his own futon. This was a getaway just for us and I hope to be back soon.”
