This New Hampshire State Park Has A Yurt Village That’s Absolutely To Die For
As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
We spend a lot of time writing about unique places to spend the night. Whether it’s a campground in the forest or a bed and breakfast with some serious history, there are plenty of places to rest your weary bones here in New Hampshire. And while we hate to play favorites, we just can’t get enough of the spots that bring us closer to nature. And the yurts in this state park are certainly some of the coolest!
Milan Hill State Park in Milan is one of the best hidden gems in the state. And we recently came across something that makes this place extra-special.
Each platform offers plenty of space and the surrounding woods are perfect for escaping from the everyday. But, there's one other accommodation option here that we can't wait to try!
Located in the Great North Woods and nearby the Androscoggin River, the yurts inside the park offer the perfect opportunity to get closer to nature without having to sleep on the ground.
Each one also has a fire pit and picnic table which makes fur the perfect camping experience. These are a great way to get into camping while still holding onto some of the comforts of home.
While you're here, make sure to enjoy the many activity options too. They include things like hiking, canoeing, kayaking and see lots of wildlife. One of our favorite things to do is climb the fire tower for sweeping views of New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, and Canada.
Milan Hill State Park yurts must be reserved in advance and you can do that through the official website. They’re currently accepting reservations beginning in May 2021. You can also head to this part of the website for more information on how to enjoy the park when you’re not sleeping. The park is open year-round, but during the off-season you won’t find staff and there’s no guarantee that comfort stations are open.
Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
