The Androscoggin is named after the local Androscoggin River. It is tucked in a stand of evergreens within a 128 acre parcel.&nbsp;&nbsp;Chandler Brook runs through the majority of the above mentioned parcel&nbsp;and meanders through a large marshland. &nbsp;Access to the yurt from the parking area is via a gentle declining path.&nbsp; The side door gives access to the trash bin and leads to one of the recreational trails.&nbsp; Inside the yurt you will find a kitchenette complete with a draining sink, insulated Stanley water jug, propane camp cook stove, enameled dinnerware set, Stanley cookware and coffee&nbsp;french press, silverware, and serving utensils. It is fully furnished with a bar table, 6 barstools, couch, 2 arm chairs, coffee table, and a timber frame loft area! The loft area has a lower queen bed and an upper queen bed. *Note* bedding is not provided. Up to two dogs are welcomed with a pet fee of $20/night per dog.&nbsp;Doggy bags are provided for pet clean up and are located at the front door. Ample hooks are placed throughout the yurt for hanging jackets and drying wet gloves and hats near the fire. The yurt is equipped with a small solar system that powers the 12v LED lights and 4 USB outlets for charging phones, laptops, and iPads. *Note* guests should bring any adapters needed to plug into USB ports. Inside the guest binder guests will find instructions for the stove, solar system, windows and more, as well as a site map and Bethel area guides for dining and things to do.&nbsp;Solo stoves are provided for outdoor fires year round. Along the stone seating around outside, guests will find 4 adirondack chairs under strings of lights along with stacks of firewood and cast iron fireplace tools. Baskets of fire starter and kindling and lighters or matches are located inside. All provided at no additional fee! Guests have convenient access to the nearby bathhouse. The interior of the rustic/farmhouse style bathhouse feels warm and inviting. Stained concrete floors are throughout and guests will enjoy the radiant heat on their bare feet when getting out of the shower. The bathhouse has large rustic tub sinks for washing dishes and filling the water jug provided in each yurt. It houses a ladies’ and gent’s side, each with 2 private hot showers and 2 toilet stalls. There is a handicap accessible toilet stall available in both bathrooms.&nbsp; Guests will enjoy the surrounding forest and trails that we continue to expand. Our primary goal at Western Maine Yurts is to provide our guests with a four-season lodging option that is as connected to nature as possible. We aim to give a more luxurious and convenient camping/glamping experience where you can enjoy a hot shower after a day of outdoor activities. We hope you will enjoy unplugging from the demands of daily life and pause to listen to the rain on the roof, birds singing in the morning, and the breeze blowing in the trees. Take the time to enjoy a cozy cuddle on the couch with your favorite beverage, and get out and explore all that Western Maine and the Bethel area have to offer.

The Androscoggin at Chandler Brook Village

This is our second year staying with Western Maine Yurts. We bring our large dog and have had a great experience both times! The space is clean and equipped with the essentials. We had a booking mishap (on our end) and the host was kind, understanding, and accommodating. Will be back next year!

Great experience!

If you want to experience a rustic Maine setting in unique comfort, this is the way to go. The Androscoggin was comfortable and well equipped with all the essentials. Bath house is super clean, a great place for a warm shower after a day on the slopes or trails. Highly recommend.

Androscoggin

We had the best time! The yurts were very cute, yet simple, efficient and lots of space. Bathrooms were amazing! Very clean, and super close to our yurt. Beautiful property and hiking trails! There was even a binder with fun places to eat and things to do which is great if you're from out of town! We will for sure be back eventually for a nice fall trip.

Had a wonderful weekend stay in our yurt. Very nice inside and was able to stay warm in  even in low outside temps. The bath house is very clean and has plenty of privacy. Would stay again.

Really enjoyed our stay. Yurt was awesome. Liked that there was a queen bed and not just couch/foutons like we have experienced at other yurts. A couple of suggestions I would make though: a guide book in the yurt of surrounding things to do, trail maps etc. Also found it odd that both doors had no curtains over the windows. Just made us feel like we didn’t have full privacy if we were changing in the yurt. Also, the last evening we were there ended up being freezing rain. The path from the yurt and parking area was complete glare ice. Maybe have a bucket of sand nearby that we can throw down if situations like this arise. Overall, great experience though.
