Welcome to Backwoods Cabin Co. We have two unique glamping cabins available on our property located on the outskirts of Tweed and Madoc. The perfect spot to unwind, relax, and snuggle by the wood stove.
There is a loop trail that goes around the entire 11 acres of land. There are markers along the trail so you know the boundaries of the area
My family and I live on the property, we are here if you need anything urgently. We do spend a lot of time outside so the odd time you might hear our kids playing. We do have 2 VERY friendly dogs named Copper and Chief who might bark at you when you pull into the driveway but are on an electric fence so cannot get back to the cabin. We also have an outdoor cat named Wessie that may come and say hello.

Jacks Cabin was a perfect cozy cottage in the woods. Beautiful property and plenty of classic board games to play by fire light. The wood stove kept up very warm throughout the night.
The only con is the outhouse has a window but no curtain. Its a small critique but worth mentioning.
We greatly enjoyed our stay and would recommend anyone looking to get away for a quiet weekend check out this property.

We absolutely loved our stay at Derrick and Rachel's place! It was everything we dreamed of. The place is private, quiet and you are able to fully relax here. The Dome is beautiful, set high with gorgeous lake views. It is clean, extremely comfortable and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. They have every amenity you require, and excellent seating areas outside (around the fire, and at the dock). The available kayak, canoe and paddleboards allows you to fully enjoy the property. The sauna/shower was such a nice touch and a great way to unwind at the end of the day. If you are looking for a hidden gem, slice or paradise, or the perfect getaway this is your place! Rachel was very responsive and helpful. We highly recommend.

What an absolute treasure this place is! Beautifully appointed, completely serene and so peaceful! We loved our stay and thankfully the weather was perfect! Only thing I would note is we would’ve liked to be notified that the sauna and shower are located up by the main cottage near the road but other than that just perfect!

My partner and I really loved the cabin and area despite not being able to have a fire due to the fire restrictions in the area. The loft was awesome and we really enjoyed going out on the balcony to enjoy our coffee. The cabin has wonderful ambiance and is perfect for couple's or an individual to spend some alone time.

Cozy, romantic, fun, peaceful, and beautiful are just a few adjectives that I would use to describe ALG. Derrick & Rachel are phenomenally thoughtful and responsive hosts. Our only regret with choosing ALG for our anniversary is that we didn’t book a longer stay! Lots of wildlife and adventure nearby too.

Jack's cabin was absolutely fantastic, we had a wonderful stay!
The walk from our car was quick and the trail was well groomed and easy to navigate. The cabin itself was stunning and extremely well decorated, inside and out! Very neat, tidy and stocked with everything we could possibly need. Surrounded by beautiful forest with no neighbors in sight, the site felt private, cozy and quiet. We also appreciated the information binder about the cabin itself and the surrounding area. A great guide for nature trails, sights to see, local restaurants and entertainment. We had a wonderful time and will be sure to return!

The cabin is cozy and has everything you need…except a shower. The listing is somewhat misleading as it says it has cold water showers and there’s only a camp shower. We got creative with washing so we made do. Just bring extra water or make a plan for bathing if you stay here.
Malissa and Corey are very helpful and promptly respond to messages and requests.
The kitchen is well-stocked and the DVD collection was nice to check out. There’s lots of games and a listing of places to explore the local area.
We enjoyed the peace and quiet but do be warned- the mosquitos are bad, so bring lots of bug spray!

Great spot for a little family get away! Fantastic for adventurous swimmers with the water steps away. Swimming from the docks to the rapids was lovey and hours spent searching for blue crayfish! It is pretty private, but also important to remember it is a busy campground as well. The host was fantastic and very responsive!

The best dog-friendly glamping sites near Bancroft guide
Where to go
Algonquin Provincial Park
Enjoy the nearly untouched woodlands of Algonquin Provincial Park, just 50 minutes away from Bancroft. As Canada’s first provincial park, it’s home to giant moose, racing rivers, quiet ponds, and scenic hiking trails that traverse its 7,600 square kilometres. Explore interpretive walking trails and canoe or kayak river rapids. In the winter, try dog sledding or summer camp in the wild backcountry. Nearby campgrounds and RV parks are available year-round as well.
Egan Chutes Provincial Park
Waterfalls and old forests fill Egan Chutes Provincial Park. Drive 15 miles from town to enjoy popular park activities like hiking, canoeing on the York River, and birding. Hikers can also find both easy and moderately challenging hikes. Then, try nearby cabin rentals, RV parks, and campgrounds offering convenient amenities like restrooms, firepits, and picnic areas.
Petroglyphs Provincial Park
Home to the largest concentration of the country’s indigenous rock carvings, Petroglyphs Provincial Park also offers pristine forests and famed blue-green waters at McGinnis Lake. Campers can peruse the carvings of humans and animals at The Teaching Rocks while hiking the surrounding landscape. Although the park does not offer camping or cabin rentals, these accommodations can be found nearby or back in Bancroft.
When to go
Campers enjoy visiting Bancroft year-round. Although summertime is popular, each season offers outdoor fun. June through August is peak camping season, which is complemented by activities like swimming, boating, and hiking. While winter and spring attract fewer campers, there are still plenty of activities and campsites in operation; though it’s important to monitor the weather and possible road closures due to snow. After summer, autumn is Bancroft’s most popular season with its colourful foliage, fall festivals, and farmer’s markets.
