Tall Pines Yurt

Inside the yurt Members of the Minnehaha Academy Ski Team

For centuries the people of the Mongolian plateau have found yurts to be comfortable, convivial dwellings. These round, peaked-roofed, canvas-covered huts are warm and cozy. Over the past twenty years hundreds of skiers traveling the Banadad Ski Trail have found our yurts to be comfortable winter lodging. Now you can enjoy the comfort of a wilderness yurt all year round at the new Tall Pines Yurt.

The Tall Pines Yurt is located on the edge of the Boundary Waters near a stand of old growth white pines and overlooking your own private BWCA lake. This attractively furnished, twenty-foot housekeeping yurt is set-up to accommodate up to four people, sleeping on a futon and bunk beds. Additional cots or bunk beds can be brought in for larger groups. The yurt is heated by a wood stove / fireplace, has overhead gas lighting and a fully equipped kitchen (pots, pans, dishes, utensils) with a cook stove, dining table and chairs. Outside is an attached deck with a picnic table and a great view of the lake. A firepit, charcoal grill and most importantly, a Finnish sauna are nearby. Outhouse is located near the yurt also.

During the non-snow months you hike in three hundred feet from the summer parking area. The trail to the yurt connects to some of the finest mountain biking trails in the area. Hiking trails are just out the door and a canoe is provided for your use.

During the winter the yurt is an exclusive silent sports accommodation, accessible by a 1-kilometer ski or snowshoe trek on a groomed trail from the Lace Ski Lake Trail or winter parking area. The eastern trailhead of the Banadad is 2 kilometers away by skis. For the adventuresome skier, Boundary Country Trekking offers Yurt to Yurt Skiing between the Tall Pines and Croft Yurts along the Boundary Waters longest tracked trail: the Banadad.

Pets welcome at the Tall Pine Yurt for a nominal fee. All our accommodations, including the Tall Pines Yurt, are smoke free.
