It's the perfect place to unplug, unwind and completely connect with nature to enjoy some quiet time. In this cozy glamping setting, you will be serenaded by birds of every kind and will often see deer drinking by the stream close by. This cabin is OFF GRID (limited solar power) but has a wood stove (bundles of firewood available for purchase), propane outdoor portable grill, and enough solar power for very small electronic appliances. Sleeps 3 adults comfortably (or 2 adults & 2 children however msg us if you have any questions). Indoor bathroom with compostable toilet indoors. Many attractions and conveniences only 10-15 mins away in Port Sydney, Bracebridge and Huntsville. Nearby is a the beautiful public Mary Lake beach and boat launch in Port Sydney. There is NO HUNTING permitted on the property. Please expect bugs, flies and mosquitoes. Deck is mostly enclosed to make star filled nights that much more enjoyable.

The 3 mins drive to the cabin is quite picturesque but bumpy with a few protruding rocks so please use caution while driving.

A wonderful weekend getaway!
This cabin was absolutely wonderful and the host was amazing! My boyfriend and I rented the cabin for a weekend getaway for his birthday and I'm extremely impressed by the host's amazing hospitality and communication. Cari was quick to answer all and any questions I had leading up to and during our stay. She even lit a fire for us before arrival to ensure the cabin was warm when we got there and she allowed us to check out later since no one booked it it the same day we were checking out. The cabin was well stocked firewood, a few decks of cards, books and board games. Many kitchen supplies are provided as well such as pots, pans, cutlery, glassware, plates, bowls and cooking utensils. Lots of water available for cooking and cleaning with, but you need to bring your own water to drink. The bed was extremely comfortable and the couch was amazing to lounge around on as well! The road to the cabin was quite slippery so be sure to make sure your car is equipped with winter tires and has 4 wheel drive. Alternatively, a sled was provided along with a parking spot at the entrance, which would be a 5-8 min walk in. I would absolutely love to stay here again and would recommend this site to anyone who is looking for a cozy getaway!!

Winter wonderland
Cari’s cabin was everything we needed for a few nights away from a busy life in the city. From the wood stove to the silent woods around us, it really required us to slow down and be present. We were also under an hour away from Algonquin and made the day trip for a lovely hike, and you’re only 20 minutes from Huntsville. I would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone looking to unwind and unplug!

Absolutely perfect little cabin!
We had such a nice stay at this little cabin, what a gem. It is perfectly quiet and private, and we stayed super toasty and cozy with the little woodstove. We really appreciated the extra touches, like lots of tea lights and lanterns, batteries, a solar powered radio, hunter orange vests so that we could go for nice walks. The little deck with a patio was perfect for sitting out in nature, watching the birds at the feeder, and enjoying one of the many varieties of tea in the cupboard, along with fresh cookies from a local bakery. The fire had already been lit when we arrived, so we walked in to a nice warm cabin, with plenty of firewood stacked next to it. There were several full water jugs already in the kitchen, and Cari checked in with us halfway through our stay to make sure that we didn't need more water or anything else. She made us feel very welcome, and was quick to respond to any questions that we had. We are hoping to make this an annual trip, and would love to return to this sweet little cabin in the woods.

The cabin was the perfect place to unwind for the weekend. It is equipped with everything you could need and more. A great spot to adventure in the forest on the property or to cozy up on the porch. We can't wait to go back!
