Reinette has been a dedicated student of yoga for over 50 years, but it was her first class in 2003 that completely transformed her life. Since then, she has become a KRI-certified Kundalini teacher (E-RYT500), Reiki Master, and founder of the Tenth Gate School for Yoga & Energy Healing. She has studied with world-renowned teachers, trained in India, and directed her own yoga and meditation center for over a decade.

After much thoughtful consideration, we’ve made the bittersweet decision to list for sale.

Over the past 11 years, we’ve had the incredible privilege of building Acadia Yurts from the ground up—bringing “ ” to MDI and creating a unique property that blends tourism and local community. We are deeply proud of what we’ve accomplished and endlessly grateful for the relationships we’ve built with our guests and wellness clients along the way.

We are writing to share this news while also reassuring you that nothing is changing at this time—both the and the will continue to operate as usual, and we are currently accepting reservations for the 2026 season. We are whole heartedly committed to running Acadia Yurts until it’s time to pass the torch.

It is our intention to sell to a buyer who will allow us to lease back the Wellness Center, so we can continue offering self-care and healing services to our beloved community. We believe this is appealing to potential buyers as the rentals and wellness center are two separate businesses that operate together.

Managing two full-time businesses has been incredibly rewarding and educational, but we’re ready to take everything we’ve learned and move toward a simpler path. This transition would allow us to focus more fully on growing the Wellness Center, a space we feel deeply connected to and excited about!

Thank you for being part of the journey thus far—we truly couldn’t have done it without you and we are eternally grateful for being a part of your Acadia experience!!

Warmest Regards,

&

🌲 September in Maine is our best-kept secret… and we’ve got a few yurts left!

Late August and September openings are currently live—including one yurt with a rare 3-night minimum (perfect for a quick escape). Most stays are week-long, so this is a great chance to sneak in some rest and recharge.

Why we love September: warm days, cool nights, fewer crowds, and by the end of the month… leaf peeping begins! 🍁 October is nearly booked, so this is your perfect alternative.
