Peaceful Solar Retreat

Ready to get away from it all? If you’ve been curious about what it’s really like to live off the grid, our cabin in the woods is the place. Cozy up by the fire, hike to the river, watch the sky shift through the porch pines—when you’re ready to return to civilization (or you’ve just got a hankering for an ice cream sundae), Canaan is only 10 min away. Winter= Snowmobiles. Summer = Sun and stillness.

FAQs

➤ Is the Wi-Fi reliable?
Nope — and that’s the point :) Bring a hotspot if you need it, but this place works better for real-time connection.

➤ How far out is it?
Pretty far. You’ll want to arrive before dark (guests agree), but the reward is deep quiet and sky for miles.

➤ What if it snows?
Bring 4WD in winter. Once you`re in, you`re golden — sledding, snowshoeing, or stoking the fire.

➤ Can I bring my dog?
Yes — the trails and porch are pup-approved.

➤ Is it rustic?
Very. But guests love how well stocked and lived-in it feels. Cozy, not basic.
