This 45-acre property is the original farm homestead of the Kozak family. Since 1996, the land has been stewarded and enhanced by Cheryl Cohan and Noah Erenberg and is now home to Nature On! Matlock Biodiversity Retreat and Horticultural Therapy Centre. There are 3 different listings to choose from: Deluxe Wall Tent in Forest Meadow, Bunkie in Forest Meadow, and Tent Camping in Forest Meadow. We have something for everyone, no matter the type of camper that you are! The surrounding area includes the beautiful and quaint, resort village of Dunnottar bordering along with the property: Matlock main beach on Lake Winnipeg’s southwest shore is just a three-minute walk away as is the hiking trail that meanders northward through Whytewold, Ponemah and up to Winnipeg Beach. Dunnottar Sports Courts for tennis and basketball as well as Julia’s Restaurant are a short one block to the east; Matlock General Store is a ten-minute walk to the north; many more amenities and attractions are available to explore throughout the Interlake, with lots to see and do in nearby Winnipeg Beach, Gimli, Camp Morton, Riverton, Arborg, etc. The property has many trails throughout the forest and meadow that are walkable all year round. There is a porta-potty on the property centrally located near the accommodations. There is a water hose available with cold water only. There are no showers.

The campsite is situated on our family property, a 45-care nature preserve and site of the Matlock Biodynamic Retreat and Horticultural Therapy Centre. As you walk along the groomed paths through the forested meadow teeming with a diverse array of wildflowers, grasses and sedges, you will come across three separate camping spots tucked away in the forest. Each site has its own large living area and is far enough away from others to be private yet close enough to create a group camping area if desired. There is also a clearing with a fire pit that can be used by all, and an overflow camping area in the meadow if our five designated camp spots are occupied. (Message us to check availability). There are several hiking trails through the forest and meadow as well as a meditative labyrinth and quiet garden sanctuary for campers to enjoy. You can fill up your water containers with artesian well water from the tap outside near the porta-pottie. Other items are also availalable including bagged firewood for sale.

    This place is great - as are the hosts. My kid and I loved it! Very close to the beach and store and we could easily day trip around the are. Only one friendly suggestion - a new bed frame for the bunkie!

    We had a wonderful stay. The Bunkie was very comfortable, and the screen porch was a great place to relax without worrying about bugs. The land is beautiful. Would definitely recommend!

    This is our third time at Cheryl and Noah's Bunkie. Always a great getaway. It's so quiet, yet close to the store and the beach. 10 minutes up the road is Winnipeg Beach. But we went to Matlock beach and it was wonderful. Also, we saw the meteor shower from the dock and from the bunkie with all the lights out and windows open. Noah has always been friendly and he was very attentive to our questions. My wife and I said we would come out every year since we first came out and besides last year we have done it. Last year we were busy moving and doing some work on our new home. If you want to camp, but don't always want to set up a tent and you wouldn't mind having some electricity and shelter for some inclimate weather, the bunkie in Forest Meadows is the place to be.
