Named after a Maine river, The Cupsuptic sets along the Chandler Heights Village loop. The Cupsuptic is one of 8 yurts tucked within the forest on our 128 acre property and at the heart of our Loop Trail. Chandler Brook runs through the back of the property and meanders through a large marshland. The yurt has a locking front and side door. Guests enter the front door with a key code provided before check in. Inside the yurt you will find a kitchenette complete with a draining sink, insulated Stanley water jug, propane camp cook stove (propane provided), enameled dinnerware set and percolator, stainless steel cookware, silverware, and serving utensils. It is fully furnished with a bar table, 4 barstools, living room seating, coffee table, and a timber frame bunk bed with two queen sized beds. *Note* bedding is not provided. Up to two dogs are welcomed with a pet fee of $20/night per dog. 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 propane fireplace. The propane fireplace offers ample heat through even the coldest winter weather. The yurt is equipped with a small solar system that powers the 12v LED lights and 2 USB and 2 USB-C outlets for charging phones, laptops, and iPads. *Note* guests should bring any adapters needed to plug into USB ports. A guest binder inside offers instructions for the solar power, stoves, a site map, and Bethel area dining and activities guides. Outside, 4 adirondack chairs are placed under strings of lights also powered by the solar panel. Solo Bonfire stoves are left on the stone seating area for outdoor fires year round. Stacks of firewood and baskets of fire starter and kindling are included at no extra fee! Guests have access to the bathhouse located at the center of the village. 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. The interior of the farmhouse style bathhouse feels warm and inviting with stained concrete floors throughout with radiant heat. The bathhouse has large rustic tub sinks for washing dishes and filling the water jug provided in each yurt. Our well water is tested monthly and approved by the Maine Drinking Water Program. Guests can enjoy the surrounding forest on trails that we are continuing 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 embrace being unplugged from the fast pace of your normal life. Pause to listen to the rain on the roof, birds singing in the morning, and the breeze blowing in the trees. Enjoy a cozy cuddle on the couch with your favorite drink. And get out and explore all the Western Maine and the Bethel area have to offer!

The Cupsuptic at Chandler Heights Village

This is our third year coming to Western Maine Yurts and our 4th or 5th stay overall. We love the balance of comfort and a little bit of rustic charm. Yurts are toasty warm and have plenty of space for hanging out after skiing. Bathhouse has plenty of hot water for showers and dishwashing. This year was our first year staying in one of the Chandler Heights Yurts rather than the lower yurts, and it was lovely as always. Our family prefers the original yurts, though, which have fairy lights on the beds and separate lights over the kitchen area. Those features make it easier for parents traveling with wee kiddos. You can keep the top bunk dark for them but have a bit of light for yourselves to stay up later. Chandler Heights yurts have no outhouses, so be prepared to walk to the bathhouse if you need a middle-of-the-night pee. It's not too far from any of the yurts in this cluster, though, so not too bad. Recommend bringing your own skillet if you want to make eggs for breakfast, as the cookware in this yurt was a bit sparse. Also bring sponges and dish soap if you want to wash up in the yurt vs. carrying items down to the bathhouse. Highly recommend this lodging!

Always a great stay!

Loved this place! Clean, comfortable, unique. It had everything we needed and the bathhouse was spotless and immaculate. So comfortable. Thank you for the wood and solo stove. Really enjoyed our stay and would return in a heartbeat.

Awesome

I stayed with my two granddaughters-2 and 4 and they just loved it! Very well equipped for the weekend! We had a blast. My granddaughter said we were inside a snow globe!

Amazing

We had such a great time at the Yurt Village.  It was close enough to town to go see and do everything, but quietly nestled in the most gorgeous forest/marshland area.  We enjoyed snow shoeing all around the property in the freshly fallen snow.  The pub life is very fun with apres ski, and there are several cute shops and cafes in the historic village.  The yurt was absolutely adorable and had everything you’d need.  The bathhouse was immaculate and so tastefully designed.  The showers were delightfully hot after a day spent traipsing through the trees.  Will definitely come back!
