The property 100 acres — trails, pond & farm

This is an off-grid experience. Our yurts are powered by powerpacks (no hydro), washrooms are outhouses, and WiFi is boosted but may not be fully reliable. We provide all essentials — bedding, water, firewood, BBQ propane — but guests should come prepared to embrace simple, rustic living. No pets. Good footwear is strongly recommended around the farm area — no sandals or open-toe shoes please.
