We highly recommend Cassandra's place. It was a great glamping experience.
Location
The location itself is perfect for a North Shore visit. Directly across the street from Ted's Bakery, which we visited more times than I care to admit.
Accommodation
The interior of the yurt and the furniture was very clean and stylish. The bed, futon couch and linens were quite comfortable. There was enough of a kitchenette to prepare simple picnic or breakfast meals and beverages and keep items cold.
My husband and I are familar with yurts and safari style tents so there were no surprises with the accomodation structure. Except to add the positive surprise that we visited during a nonstop rain storm over the Christmas holiday and the canvas did not leak one bit into the interior, which was very impressive. The only drips were from our clothing coming in.
The outdoor bathroom was spacious and clean. The outdoor shower was always warm and refreshing and we never got cold using it.
Amenities
It was amazing to have the bikes at our disposal as all of the best North Shore beaches were accessible on the safe and easy to ride bike trail. We did not rent a car, which was recommended to us and instead used the inexpensive and mostly reliable bus system or the bikes to get us around to all the places we wanted to go.
