Weekend Trip to Forest Cabin

The forest cabin was everything I’d hope for and more. I wanted a place to get away and reconnect with nature and that’s exactly what I got out of my stay. I went for hikes through the property, got to play with the sheep and the dogs! And like others have said in their reviews, by far the best outhouse I’ve ever soon! I would 100% recommend staying here! I’ll be back to check it out in the spring or summer!

Everdale is a special place! The straw cabin is simple, comfortable and so quiet! I felt safe as a person going there solo and walked their well loved and cared for land extensively. It was an education as well in that they have a regenerative farm. Being a long time gardener myself, it was interesting to read the sign posts on my walk explaining different aspects of regenerative farming and the lands ecology. I'll definitely come back and in the colder months, be sure you're comfortable keeping the woodstove going, you may need to split wood, etc. Also, being solar powered, if it's a cloudy day, the lights may go off early. I was glad I brought a battery operated lamp. Great place, great feeling there.!

Weekend Trip to Forest Cabin

We enjoyed our stay so much we'll definitely be returning. Good amount of wood supplied and easy to grab another bag. The outdoor kitchen was so well stocked and clean. The outhouse as well. I could go on and on, but I don't want you booking one of our future stays there.

Weekend Trip to Forest Cabin

What a wonderfully relaxing couple of days we had at the cabin! It was so well appointed that there wasn’t a single thing we lacked. Everything was prepared for our arrival. Bed was comfy and cozy. The peace was Devine. We snowshoed through the woods and felt like the only people in the world. Came home happy and rejuvenated. You couldn’t ask for better hosts. We will be back.

Everdale’s forest cabin is a delight. I loved being tucked away at the edge of the woods. The cabin is lovely, very comfortable, and the wood stove is very powerful. The outdoor kitchen is extraordinary and has everything you might need. Gavin and family were wonderful hosts. I hope to visit again soon.
