Second time we’ve been back, the writers cabin is so nice and comfy. Made fires and played with the animal, sea kayaks are super fun. 10/10

Our stay was wonderful! The land is beautiful and Kate and Zack were so welcoming. There is a delightful mix of farm animal hustle and bustle, with quiet secluded cabin time. This is really a great place to rest and retreat, while also being a perfect home base for exploring the Bold Coast. Highly recommend for those of you who like the combination of adventure and solitude.

A cozy evening spent at the Writer'
This was an incredible and unique experience! The views from the cozy cabin are stunning. The off-grid cabin allowed us to unplug and reconnect with nature. We were even greeted by a herd of goats in the morning! The hosts are fantastic and very responsive! I can't wait to come back to the Writers Cabin, what a great spot!

Beautiful farm with access to a stunning waterway. Hosts were incredibly hospitable and the baby goats might be the cutest farm animals I’ve ever seen. Would 100% stay again!

Quaint cabin with nice forest views. We were greeted by Hospitable host, Friendly goats, donkey, chickens. Beautiful walk from your car through picturesque farmland to the site. Cabin equipped with cozy wood burning stove, an inspirational spot for reading, writing or just sitting.
