If it’s been a while since you’ve felt truly starry-eyed, this extraordinary Airbnb near Ottawa has got you covered. You can rent this dreamy yurt in the middle of a hidden forest, and it’s fully equipped for stargazing all night long. Better still, it’s surprisingly affordable!

Narcity may receive a portion of sales if you purchase something from this article, which was created independently by Narcity's editorial team just for you.

If you’ve been dreaming of escaping the hustle and bustle of the city, how about getting lost in the woods with nothing but the night sky to keep you company?

Just one hour from Ottawa, you can try your hand at “wild glamping” in an Airbnb that’s inspired by a Mongolian yurt. Here, you’ll be able to leave all of your worries on the rustic wooden doorstep.

Located in Quebec’s L'Ange-Gardien region, the “Yurt of the Rock” is probably unlike any other accommodation in the area. 

You’ll take an easy 15-minute hike to reach the property, which is nestled deep within surrounding forests and nature. 

Upon arriving, you can be able to truly embrace the off-grid experience that this yurt offers, as there’s no running water and only limited electricity.

To make you feel totally at-one with the natural world, you’ll even be able to listen to the howls of the nearby sled dogs as you fall asleep.

That said, the most extraordinary aspect of this place is the opportunity to fall asleep under the stars, literally!

The yurt has a huge, circular window at its peak, allowing you to embrace the pitch-black sky and peek out at the airspace above. 

This space has been designed to maximize sky-watching, and you’ll be able to gaze up at the midnight stars from the comfort of your cozy bunk bed. Sounds romantic, eh?

The glorious night-skies and the surrounding wildlife aren’t the only draws to this unique rental experience.

There’s also plenty of opportunities to hike, bike, swim, canoe, dog-sled and snow-shoe, depending on the time of year, of course.

If you’re looking for a yurt experience that combines nature and the supernatural, there’s another Airbnb in Ottawa that was once the site of a UFO landing!
