Escape the busy-ness to relax in nature in this cozy, semi-off-grid cabin that was built in 1850 with logs from Quebec.
Enjoy the magic of nature by waking to the birds, walking 15 minutes to the beach and lake, or hiking in the forests. Connect around the fire, or relax with coffee on the porch. Like glamping!
This retreat has all of the basics such as heat, wifi and electricity, while keeping you connected to off-grid vibes; no plumbing. Please note, 2-night minimum stay on weekends.
The space
This unique one-room (with loft) log cabin sits nestled on more than an acre of private forest. Although it is semi-off-grid, it offers the comforts of electricity, propane heat, and even wi-fi, while still honouring the rustic back-to-basics feel of escaping into the woods.
The property is private and quiet, but is on a maintained road and only 5 minutes from a corner store with everything you need, and less than 10 minutes from Burk's Falls where you will find quaint shopping, groceries and dining.
The property is a 5-minute drive to Katrine public beach and boat launch, on the charming Little Doe Lake. Bring your canoe or paddle board, and enjoy a day on the water just minutes from the cabin; or spend the day lounging on the quiet beach, or exploring trails at Arrowhead provincial park just 15 minutes away.
This is the perfect escape for peace, quiet and connection with nature.
This beautiful cabin is most definitely a few steps up from "GLAMPING", and we take pride in making it as clean, comfortable and accommodating as possible, BUT please note...it is not for everyone!! It is rustic...there are bugs; there is very little exterior lighting; the stairs up to the loft are narrow; there might be spiderwebs here and there; please note that you cannot expect the luxuries of home. Please read ALL of the details to ensure this is the right fit for you! If you are unsure...I am HAPPY to answer any of your questions.
