Have you ever fallen asleep stargazing? Are you looking for a unique outdoor experience in the woods experience in the Petit Bois to disconnect in nature? Come stay in a yurt by the sea.

What is a yurt ?

A yurt is a traditionnal nomadic habitat or dwelling from Central Asia. In it’s traditionnal role, the circular tent was conceived with a fast assembly and dissembly because of frequent voyages.

In the Petit Bois, our yurts are installed and conceived in a permanent and contemporary manner. The yurts consist of wooden slats that support chevrons on compression hoops. A canvas without seams and extremely resistant covers the outside of the yurt while a canvas that protects the yurts against fire covers the inside. Insulation is inserted between both canvases and a transparent dome allows you to observe the stars at night. The yurts are open twelve months a year because they are equipped with a wood stove for the winter months.

Who can stay in a yurt ?

Anybody! Both of our yurts are equipped with ten beds. During the weeks of the summer months, the yurts will be used by the summer camps La Colonie Jeunesse Acadienne. During the weekends and the rest of the year, the yurts will be able to be rented for overnight stays or daily events. Youths under the age of 19 must be accompanied by an adult.
