Weekend Trip to The Crow’s Nest Forest Camp

Sheila and Jeff were friendly hosts and quick to lend a helping hand. The land was beautiful and relaxing; the cabin, super cozy. I’m already looking forward to staying again!

2 nights at The Crow’s Nest Forest Camp

Being nestled in the trees was a cherished respite for us on our Spirit Walk. Sheila and Jeff were on the property to welcome us on arrival which was really nice. Their sweet cat supervised as we settled in. We were visited by chipmunks, squirrels, crows, and deer during our stay. Nice rustic cabin with a warm shower, comfy bed, and composting toilet plus nice kitchen amenities, walking trails, and fire pit. Charming!

Weekend Trip to The Crow’s Nest Forest Camp

It was such a a beautiful place it had beautiful paths and lovely scenery. Sheila and Jeff are so nice I'm happy to have been able to come to there home. Me and my boyfriend had a wonderful time. It's the perfect spot to get away from the city. The next time I go I will definitely be staying longer.

We had such a great time and would definitely comeback for longer next time . Kim was very welcoming and let us come on her property to see the animals and gave as backstory on how this property has come to be what it is today. Such a beautiful spot and a cozy cabin. Kim was very responsive and had everything we needed to have a relaxing and peaceful trip. 10/10

The Crows Nest is a beautiful cabin on land surrounded by forest and nature that offers lots of peace and quiet. The hosts Sheila and Jeff are very generous with their hospitality. There’s lovely art, comforts and coziness inside the cabin as well as on the surrounding land. We loved our 2 night stay and plan to come back. Thank you Sheila and Jeff!

Great hosts! Cabin was clean and had a lovely vibe! Really appreciate the provided grill and other amenities. Really enjoyed walking the trail and all the deer and other wildlife we saw. So nice to get away and recharge and ground ourselves!

Sheila was so inviting and kind ❤️ if I could leave 10 stars I definitely would! The crows nest immediately felt like home away from home and we hated to leave. Got to see lots of wildlife on the property which was such a cool bonus! We will definitely be returning in the near future!

The cabin was great - situated over the pond we enjoyed watching wildlife and a massive thunderstorm from the porch. Kim was a wonderful host, even providing things we didn’t know we needed. We would definitely stay there again.

3 nights at Twin Peaks By The Lakes Retreat

I did not personally stay in the Wanderer's Hideaway (I booked it in combination with Cindy and Travis's other property) but two of my friends slept there on our trip and said it was comfortable and worked well for their needs. The firepit area is lovely and relaxing in a hammock among the trees to read was so nice (plenty of space to add extra hammocks as well). Lots of room for parking (especially if you're also renting the larger cabin that backs right up to this one) and their dog did very well inside.

Great boho cabin for a rustic weekend away. Sheila and Jeff are awesome. Very unique getaway, the kind of random and one of a kind venue you hope for on this site.

Weekend Trip to The Crow’s Nest Forest Camp

From the moment we pulled in the drive until we left for home…Crows Nest was a perfect escape! Sheila and Jeff have thought of everything to create an oasis for you to enjoy! The trail around the property was a perfect morning stroll. The cabin is clean and comfortable. No musty or earthy smells at all! They have TWO full binders of activities and suggestions. They are incredibly thoughtful hosts with an adorable camp store. We can’t wait to come back again!
