We’re Lily, Wesley and Danielle, your hosts at Cabin Glory. We're a family of joyful and curious nature lovers. We started this journey with Cabin Glory on a whim, driven by a deep desire to spend more time experiencing the wild around us. Lily was seeking out a new project, and Danielle was embarking on her handy-woman career. Luckily, Wes and his dad are quite handy already and were ready to tackle the enormous dream of renovating our cabin. We're proud to share this space with you, that we have created with love, sweat, and so, so many mosquito bites. As you rest or adventure here, our wish is that you can connect with yourself, the company you keep, and the earth around you. There's nothing quite like hearing the symphony of rustling leaves as the wind passes by, being carried by the gentle movement of the river, or simply in awe of the magnificent horizon. Welcome to Cabin Glory. We’re so glad you're here! Learn more about this land: Cabin Glory is a place intended for connection. Slow down, take a breath, and find what it is that you’ve been missing. Whether it’s a sense of adventure searching for wild animals on a winter hike, a slow morning with a book, a late night with the stars, or stories over a campfire - you’re sure to find it here. Situated on 18 acres, available to our guests we have our main cabin, a dining gazebo, and a riverside gazebo. The area is well treed in for privacy and a true feeling of an escape. Guests can access hours of private hiking trails along the river and through the forest.

We had such a lovely time here! It was so quiet, and surrounded by beautiful ravens. There was even one that kept saying hello! The cabin was clean and not buggy. The outhouse was well maintained. They even provide a tent area outside the cabin so we could eat without getting attacked by bees. Such a lovely property, very close by some beaches, small towns and really cool antique shops! The hosts were so warm and friendly. I think our only suggestion would be to bring a foam mattress for the loft bed, as it's a very thin matt to sleep on. We're not in our 20s anymore, and definitely needed a thicker bed! Would definitely recommend this rental. It's quiet, private, relaxing and exactly what we needed. 5/5!

From the time we arrived at the cabin, I readily told myself that I should have booked a longer stay. We loved the cabin and the facilities at the site. The site was also near provincial and municipal parks for all the activities you want to engage in. The site is also not so far from a big town where you can get anything you need. Even the instructions and tips given upon booking were so thorough that I didn't need to clarify anything. The owner was also very responsive and accommodating. We definitely recommend this place.

Weekend Trip to The Bunk House Camp

The host was awesome — gave us a tour of the property and shared some of its history, which was a nice touch. The place is cozy, private, and well set up. There's a BBQ and a large custom smoker, perfect for outdoor cooking. Although it's off-grid, the host has solar batteries and a generator, so power was never an issue. We really loved our stay and would definitely come back!

Clean! Very clean and well maintained area. Host replies quickly. Lots of fire wood available. Area was nice and quiet. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away for a quiet get away. Town is close enough you can pop in and grab a morning coffee and there is a few great swimming locations close by (by car) as well. We had a great stay and would love to visit again.

The site has a few cabins in different sizes. Mine was cabin 2. Small but enough for 2-4 people to sleep. Soa bed on ground floor and loft bed upstairs. Propane heating is extra. Firewood extra for campfire. I'd ask for firewood in advance. A propane BBQ hooked up. Outhouse. And a shower but no water. The site is 10 minutes to Bancroft so you can resupply there.
