Baddeck river yurt getaway
This yurt was an amazing experience! It was so above and beyond what we expected! It was so cozy with the wood stove, and the kitchenette was perfect. Everything we needed for a great night was provided. There is a very nice 5 minute walk through the forest to get to the yurt, where you come out just a stones throw from the baddeck river. Beautiful location, we hope to be back as soon as possible!
