We are a small Eco Resort in Sandilands Provincial Forest. All 4 cabins are solar, and off grid. Just 3 min for Woodridge, and set on the western border of the Sandilands provincial Forest. It's a cottage community and sees a steady influx of visitors. There are groomed snowmobile trails, cross country ski trails, as well as a ATVing, and hunting in the area. SANDILANDS PROVINCIAL FOREST: The soil is still a reminder of the ancient beaches, but is now covered with a rich forest of mixed hardwoods and majestic pine. The high sand ridges of the Sandilands area, known as Bedford Hills and Cypress Mountains, are the second highest point of elevation in Manitoba. Additionally you will have access to all the shared amenities of the eco-resort including a wood-fired barrel sauna (all year), outdoor shower (in the summer) As well as the Organic swimming pool. There are 3 other unique rents on the property Fire pit firewood can be bought $20 for a wagon (Woodstove wood is provide). You can also buy hand made Metis art. (all money goes to the artisan) We also buy décor and blankets from Metis, and aboriginal company's in Canada.

    The A frame cabin was wonderful! We had an amazing weekend and loved the atmosphere. The host was easy to reach and answered any questions we had. We would love to come again!

    The place where we stayed was beautiful! The place had plenty of ventilation due to being able to open one of the walls and you had a perfect view of the night sky. Janice included plenty of water, firewood, utensils propane and linens. The pond itself didnt disappoint either, my favorite part being little turtles that we tried to catch. Being in the woods, there were a fair amount of bugs, but the cabin itself was well sealed and no insects were able to get in. We will definately be coming by again next year!
