I recommend this place to anyone wanting seclusion and beauty. The price was also right for what we got and loved the cabin and fire place as well. P.S you got a very nice solar unit! Thank you!

A beautiful, serene place to unplug and unwind. The fall colours were lovely and Natalie is truly the most thoughtful host. The bird watching is excellent and a cozy meal by the fire…perfection. Thanks again, Natalie!

Natalie's bunkie is a truly magical place! The cabin itself is so cozy and thoughtfully provisioned with everything you could need all season round, from practical supplies like cutlery and cookware and a wood-burning stove to keep you warm on cool autumn nights to board games and paperback books and even a portable DVD player for makeshift movie screenings, if you can peel your eyes away from the view of the starry night sky.
The bunkie sits on a scenic body of water and a waterfall that make for great canoeing and swimming or admiring over morning coffee, and the rest of Natalie's property is bursting with whimsical art installments as well as gardens, fire pits, fairy lights, and fields of flowers.
My partner and I have visited twice - in the summer and the in the fall - and have found each season and each stay so uniquely gorgeous and relaxing. If you are looking for a place to retreat from the noise of the world, the bunkie is perfect. Natalie is so warm and welcoming and has put so much care and attention into providing people with a home away from home.

Weekend Trip to Riverbend
We had a wonderful time at this cabin! Our dog loved exploring the trails and spending time down near the water. We saw so much wildlife and the fall colours were beautiful. As always the cabin was ready for us when we arrived and Katrina & Graham were great hosts. We will be back!

This location was everything and more that was described. The lot was bigger than expected and the setup was amazing. While it was just the 2 of us there were many little spots within our site to sit and take in the nature around us. From the bumble bees to the massive amount of birds to the amazing beaver. The spot was very well stocked. We definitely over packed. My only complaint was we weren't there long enough. We will definitely be going back.

Weekend Trip to Magical yurt site
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We absolutely loved our stay at Judy’s Yurt! From the moment we arrived, Judy’s kindness and warm welcome made us feel right at home. The property is truly special — peaceful, private, and filled with natural beauty.
The yurt itself was clean, cozy, and very comfortable, giving us the perfect balance of rustic charm and relaxation. We especially enjoyed the sauna, which was such a treat after a day outdoors. The natural swimming pond was refreshing and serene, and the separate pond full of turtles and wildlife was magical to sit by — it felt like stepping into a little nature sanctuary.
Judy’s property is a place where you can completely unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy a unique experience you won’t find anywhere else. The time we spent here was absolutely worth it, and we left feeling refreshed and grateful. We would highly recommend Judy’s Yurt to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway and can’t wait to come back ourselves!

I love Riverbend. Such a magical place. The cabin is sweet and simple and has everything you need, but it's really the land. This morning I swam in the cold river water as two herons flew overhead and the fall leaves glowed around me. Magic. Thank you Katrina and Graham for sharing this beautiful spot with those of us who desperately need a break from the city--we'll be back!

Will book again. The cabin is beautifully done, inviting and peaceful. Care can be seen in every aspect. From the many chairs placed around the property giving you a stunning view to the screened in gazebo and over look at the waters edge. The water was low when I was there, but it provided the opportunity to walk among the rock bottom of the river! The wildlife was also abundant, and we caught a few glimpses of the Grey Otter!
The hosts were helpful, kind and make every effort for their guests.

Weekend Trip to Cabin in the Woods
Hi all!
We had a wonderful stay at the Blue Heron Bunkie. Super cute and cozy cabin; the host even put a little fire in the wood stove, so we’d have a warm first night. We scored with the view and I scored with a kindred spirit who owns this beautiful land. Did I mention the outdoor shower? Divine.

There are not enough words to describe Katrina and Graham's Grayotter cabin at Riverbend...tranquil, serene, calm, peaceful, quiet and restful are just a few! The cabin is quaint and cozy and has everything you need to be comfortable. Riverbend is beautiful and has several locations to sit, ground, breathe and admire the great gifts of nature and Mother Earth. We saw the blue herons, blue jays, frogs, catepillars, bees pollinating, humming bird, dragonflies and a beaver swimming in the pond. The river was low so we missed the rapids but will definitely be back to experience that another time. There was a fireband but we brought our propane fire bowl, watched the evening sky and laid on cots outside to see the stars. It was all just so breathtaking, grounding and relaxing and we couldn't have picked a better or more amazing place to celebrate our 42nd wedding anniversary which may now become a yearly thing. We had the luxury of 6 nights but we will definitely book longer on our next visit!! You guys have found a piece of paradise and you're kind enough to share it with others and I know we are very appreciative and grateful! Thank you Katrina and Graham for sharing your paradise and being amazing hosts!!

This was my first Hipcamp experience, and Natalie has set the bar extremely high. She is a fantastic host - wonderful to deal with and very responsive. The Heron Bunkie was immaculate, and had everything you could need including a great little fridge, lights, a small wood stove (and wood), comfy bed and little touches like coffee (plus a coffee maker with filters) and ice cubes ready to go. The setting was lovely, despite the drier than normal conditions - peaceful. Multiple blue heron sightings, too, and a mystery critter in the pond. (She supplies binoculars!) Having coffee sitting on the generous deck was a treat, as was dinners prepared on the bbq. Amazingly, there were very few mosquitoes, so sitting outside to read or have a beverage was truly enjoyable. Being away from any city, the stargazing was stellar, too. My pup was made to feel really welcome, and she started to look for Natalie daily. All in all, a lovely, relaxing experience. Thank you so much, Natalie. You're the best. Not a surprise that Ginny didn't want to get out of the car when we got home!

The best part of this site was how hospitable Jo & Chris were, they checked in a few times to make sure that we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The site itself was beautiful and the bunkie had everything we needed for the perfect off grid camping experience, especially the five star poop house. We also quite enjoyed getting to run around with their very cute and friendly dogs!

We LOVEDDDDD this place . So peaceful , so secluded!! Our dogs had a BLAST. I won’t even lie, we booked it for our dogs to be able to be off leash and run free, and it’s the absolute perfect spot for it. It was beyond clean, comfortable and cute !!!! The dock is perfect for swimming and the river is clean! A whole kitchen set up, which is amazing ,and some hydro too! We will deff be back next summer!! Also town is very close considering how deep into the woods you are, Madoc is an adorable little town! We can’t wait to come back

Great spot to get away and enjoy the great outdoors. The river is running low, so we did have quite a few visitors that would make their way up the river to go fishing and hang out right next to the dock. That took some of the privacy aspect away, but was still great otherwise. We still swam and our dogs definitely enjoyed it. Just what we needed to decompress. The bugs were also not bad at all, which was a bonus. No shortage of things do. Loved how they put together so many spots to sit and enjoy the view. There are enclosed areas as well as outdoorsy spots. Katrina and Graham have clearly put a ton of effort into making a cozy space for so many people to enjoy! Will definitely go back again!!

Beautiful spot, extremely welcoming host who makes you feel like family, beautiful HOT out door shower, fun and eclectic decor all over and use of anything on the property such as kayaks, fishing rods, fire pits etc
We absolutely loved our stay and will come back in the future. One small thing to note that I didn't notice in other reviews is mention of proximity. The Bunkie, where we stayed, is next to Natalie's (host) house. It is still private and Natalie is completely respectful of your space but if you're hoping to find a completely secluded and isolated spot, this may not be the ideal spot for you. It was not a problem for us, but for the sake of full transparency we felt it was worth noting.
Lots of trails, clear water and a small waterfall that you can sit right in. Charming little town near by.
Thank you Natalie for sharing your spot with the world 🩷

We had a great weekend on Natalie’s beautiful property at the Blue Heron Bunkie. Natalie was a lovely host and made sure we had everything we could need. The view from the front porch was gorgeous, overlooking the pond. We saw blue herons flying by during the day and gorgeous fireflies at night. We will absolutely be coming back.
