❄️ Cliffside Cabin at The Off Grid Ark — Cozy Winter Getaway in Western Quebec If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up to a quiet, snow-covered forest — this is your spot. Perched on a west-facing cliff at The Off Grid Ark, our rustic shelter is now fully winter-ready. A whisper-quiet diesel heater, mounted safely outside, keeps the cabin toasty warm all night while you sleep surrounded by nature. Outside, a propane deck heater makes it easy to enjoy coffee or dinner under the stars. We’ve also added a Cuisinart tabletop propane BBQ, which cooks faster and cleaner than the old jet grill — perfect for winter gloves and quick meals. We have snowshoes for rent and 10 km of groomed snowshoe trails winding through maple forest, ridges, and lakeshores — the same trails used for Canada’s longest-running snowshoe and trail race series, The Mad Trapper. I’m also hoping to cut a new backcountry ski loop this winter at the top of the escarpment for adventurous guests. The shelter includes a queen bed with fresh linens and a down duvet, plus space for tents around the firepit if you’d like a group setup. Kids and pets stay free, just leave it like you found it. The covered deck has handcrafted rocking chairs for lingering over sunsets, while your private fire area sits just below — perfect for roasting marshmallows or watching the stars. Hammocks are tucked into quiet corners for lazy afternoons or stargazing at night. We’re also building a new bunkhouse nearby for families and groups — another step toward making The Ark a year-round destination for outdoor education and adventure. There’s no electricity or running water, but you’ll have remote-control and desktop LED lights, a Jackery battery bank to keep devices charged, and a Bluetooth speaker for music or podcasts. A cooler, lanterns, jugs of clean well water, and a clean outhouse are provided. Wildlife is plentiful — deer, foxes, loons, and the occasional wolf howl in the distance. I’ll haul your gear by ATV, so bring what you need and settle in. Come unplug, warm up, and experience the stillness of winter at The Off Grid Ark — where comfort meets true off-grid adventure.Welcome to Our Cliffside Cabin We built this cabin on the edge of a cliff because, well, the views are simply incredible. You'll catch breathtaking sunsets from our covered deck, where you can rock away your cares in our handcrafted Costa Rican chairs. There's always a natural breeze up here that keeps things cool and (bonus!) keeps the mosquitoes away, even in summer. Our 164 acres gives you plenty of room to find your own space. We've carved out 10km of trails through the forest that we maintain and mark carefully. You won't get lost, but you will feel wonderfully removed from the everyday world. For more hiking adventures, step outside and you're right on the Trans Canada Trail. One of our favorite spots is the private lake at the back of the property. It's a bit of a hike to reach it, but that's what makes it special. Not many people get to swim in their own private lake! When you're ready for more water adventures, we're just 10 minutes from the Gatineau River. We can rent you canoes and drop them at the boat launch (5km from the cabin). The river above Paugan Dam is calm with no current—perfect for exploring islands, finding swimming spots, or paddling all the way to Lac St. Marie. Back at the cabin, you'll enjoy your private campfire area under the stars. Our wood-fired hot tub isn't just for soaking—its heating coil doubles as a grill for barbecuing. You'll find hammocks hung in just the right spots, and an outdoor kitchen with a stove top and camp oven for cooking. Don't worry about carrying your gear—it's a short 3-minute hike from the road, but we'll transport everything for you by ATV. We provide jugs of what we think is the best-tasting well water in the world. And despite feeling like you're miles from civilization, cell reception is excellent (you can even see the lights from the Low cell tower at night). Wakefield village is just 20 minutes away for supplies and restaurants, but you're secluded enough that if you choose, you won't see another soul during your entire stay. This is rustic living at its best—no TV or fridge, just you, the forest, stunning views, and simple comforts. The perfect place to unplug, decompress and unwind. Come find your quiet with us.
