Harvest Moon Botanical Bathhouse

41km from St. Malo Provincial Park · 1 site · Lodging
Rest and unwind in our gorgeous converted grain bin/silo, featuring a comfortable queen bed, a private outdoor shower, and a high-end mini grain bin with cedar interior outhouse. Relax in the cedar sauna, soak side-by-side on the heated stone slab, enjoy the hillbilly hot tubs, or sit around a bonfire in comfy Adirondack chairs. All amenities are just steps away. Wake up and enjoy coffee, tea, or hot chocolate in one of the many indoor or outdoor seating nooks. There’s plenty of room to walk and explore! With no artificial lighting at night, the property offers incredible stargazing. Nestled in a quiet, peaceful, secluded, tree-filled yard shared with the homeowners, we’re located just 15 minutes south of the Trans-Canada Highway near La Broquerie, Manitoba. Guests often describe this as a healing space. Notes: • Flush toilet and sink also available on-site. • A CN train crossing is just over a mile away, and trains pass a few times a night. Complimentary soft earplugs are provided for light sleepers. • Guests may heat the wood-fired sauna and hillbilly hot tubs at their leisure; each takes about an hour to warm up. Ample split wood and kindling are provided. Tubs can also be filled with hot water to speed up the process. • Two sweet, hard-working outdoor cats live on the property (they’re welcome indoors if you allow them).

Great warm people. Property bit rough when you come in but hip camp field in the back was beautiful and separate from owners house. Lots if privacy. They came to check to see if we needed anything. They were wonderful. Bit loud with rosd noise at first but after 9pm quiet. One train came thru. But all in all lovely.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Beautiful property and very private site in the forest. The open fields were amazing for a walk with our dog on the cut grass trails. The property is a quick ~ 30 minutes to Winnipeg. There is a railway line to the south which you can occasionally hear but didn’t bother us. The host was able to provide water from their well for our RV water tank on the way in. We will definitely return on our next trip in the area. Loved it!

3.5 acres on the rat river. Launch your canoe or kayak from the yard or walk fifteen minutes to St.Malo provincial park. Depending on water levels on the Rat River you can tube or paddle from the park and hop off in the backyard and do it all over again! Lots of wildlife to be been on and in the water.
