This place is a gem! We needed a peaceful escape from the city and we chose this retreat due to its proximity to provincial parks. The cabin was immaculately clean, cozy and welcoming. It's even nicer in person. The king sized bed is very comfortable. We really appreciated how well stocked the property is, from extra blankets, to a spare flashlight, dishes, firewood, pans, extra chairs, and even water sandals for the shower. There is a portapoty conveniently located right outside the cabin, an outdoor cold shower, and a full 3 piece washroom with a warm shower just steps away. This cabin is very private and surrounded by trees. Our stay was in the spring and it got quite cold at night. There is a small wood furnace but it doesn't do much to heat up the cabin, so I would recommend bringing an extra duvet if you're visiting in the colder months. The host was very responsive and helpful. Overall, we had a great stay. This cabin is good value for the money and we're looking forward to visiting again.

The location of the cabin was a bit tricky to find, but once I found it, the experience was great. It's very private and close to nature, the cabin and surroundings were as clean as a nature retreat can get. Firewood for both the wooden stove inside and the fireplace outside was provided, which was amazing for someone who's not used to being in nature. As it was still cold, even freezing, when I was there, there were barely any bugs around!I'd have loved the convenience of a washroom in the cabin, but the shared one was close and we'll maintained. The warm water was nice after a cold night!The host was easy to communicate with and was very helpful with everything that came up during my stay.The only thing that was a bit scary was coming down from the loft-like upstairs bedroom, coordinating how to get down from there was complicated as the stairs are very steep.Thanks for everything, and if I want to book a cabin again, I'll definitely book this one!

Description of property could use some tweaking. We did not expect to have to heat cabin with a tiny (size of a double toaster) and a heat lamp. It was difficult to keep cabin warm so would recommend better heating system. Cabin was clean but the outside was messy with items strewn around the property. Porta potty was very clean and hot shower was nice.

My close friends and I had a wonderful stay at the cabin over Thanksgiving weekend. There were enough beds for our group and the facilities ensured we enjoyed home comforts while also living up to promises of quiet and solitude in nature. We had long chats by the fire by night and hiked in the surrounding Backus conservation area by day. We will definitely be back in the future!

We stayed at this cabin for one night to celebrate our 18-year anniversary, and it was absolutely perfect! It’s a beautiful, private, and secluded spot that gave us the peace and quiet we were looking for. With no cell service, we were able to completely disconnect from our phones and really reconnect with each other, such a blessing.The king-sized bed on the main floor was super comfy, and at night the view of the stars was breathtaking. The location is also fantastic, just a quick 15-minute drive to the beach, and the nearby Eco Adventure Park was exactly what we needed to add a little fun and activity to our getaway.The owner was wonderful to communicate with and made everything easy from start to finish. Overall, we loved our stay and would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a cozy, peaceful escape

On arrival, there was an old pair of sandals outside the front door of the cabin, two dirty towels/rags hanging on the line, and the fire pit area was untidy. It gave us the impression that someone may be inside the cabin. There were no top sheets on the beds and the fitted sheets weren't clean (sand felt all along one and hair found on the other). The floor needed to be swept. The faucet in the cabin was not hooked up correctly and when the water temperature was changed, water poured on the ground. There is a large gap after the last step to go up to the loft, we did not feel comfortable with our younger kids sleeping up top, so we did. On a more positive note, the host was very polite and incredibly responsive. He sent a cleaner over promptly to sweep and put clean sheets on the bed including a top sheet as requested. The property has lots of potential but needs more attention to detail overall.

When we were there was not a lot of mosquitoes just used bug spray and coils and could stay out all night. There’s a mini fridge and barbecue on the property which wasn’t in the posting. Had a great time and the host answered our question throughly and quickly
