We had such a wonderful New Year’s stay in this cozy yurt! It was the perfect mix of peaceful nature and comfort…beautiful trails, lovely farm friends, and the sauna was an absolute dream, especially in the winter. The setting on the heritage farm is so charming and relaxing, and everything was clean, warm, and thoughtfully set up. Such a special place to unplug and welcome the new year. Thanks so much for being such great hosts!

This double yurt is in a private area of the farm that is accessible by car and has plenty of space inside to spread out and relax. The Finnish sauna by the pond is a must and the shower by the farmhouse, a short walk away, is a great addition. There is a BBQ for cooking but we did use our own little camp stove for morning coffee and toast. A great back to nature experience with a view across the fields.

My family really enjoyed our stay at Foxfire Heritage Farm. What a unique way to camp in the comfort of a 2 pod yurt. They had everything that we needed minus a shower. There was lots of firewood for our cold nights but it was only softwood...which had me up every couple hours to restoke. The beds were very comfortable and the power pack was such a convenience to keep our phones charged. We really loved being able to explore the property and visit with all the animals. What an awesome experience!

Nous avons attendu 30 minutes et personne n’était là. L’endroit était très embarrassé et malpropre.
L’habitation proposée était dans un champ difficilement accessible.
Nous sommes donc partis car cet offre n’était pas acceptable. Nous exigeons un remboursement.

Om værten
Vært: Mattimus
I’m Mattimus, the owner of Foxfire Heritage Farm in beautiful Powassan, Northern Ontario. I live and work on our 100-acre heritage farm, raising rare and endangered breeds of livestock, growing fresh produce, and welcoming guests who want to experience the beauty and peace of the countryside.
Hosting is more than just providing a place to stay—it’s about creating an experience. I love sharing the charm of farm life, whether it’s watching the sun rise over the pond, gathering around a campfire under the stars, or introducing guests to our friendly animals. There’s something special about seeing people slow down, breathe deeper, and reconnect with nature during their stay here.
When I’m not tending to the animals, I enjoy exploring our trails, working in the garden, and dreaming up new ways to make our farm even more inviting. I’ve always believed that the best travel memories come from unique, meaningful experiences, and it’s my goal to make every guest’s visit unforgettable.
Whether you’re here for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, I’m happy to share local tips, hidden gems, and stories from life on the farm. I look forward to welcoming you to Foxfire Heritage Farm and helping you make memories you’ll carry home with you.
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
We chose this beautiful corner of Powassan, Northern Ontario, because it offers the perfect mix of peaceful seclusion and connection to a warm, welcoming community. Our farm sits among rolling fields, pine forests, and a spring-fed pond, surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature. The quiet here is something special—you can hear the wind through the trees, the call of loons on still mornings, and the crackle of a campfire at night.
Powassan itself is a charming farming community with a proud agricultural heritage. Neighbors wave as they pass, and the pace of life is slower and more intentional. We love being close to local farmers markets, where the season’s freshest produce and handmade goods are on display, and where you can truly get to know the people who grow and make them.
One of the things we enjoy most about this area is its natural beauty in every season. In spring, the fields come alive with wildflowers; in summer, the pond is a perfect spot to cool off; autumn brings spectacular colors and crisp, clear days; and in winter, the snow transforms the landscape into a peaceful wonderland. With hiking trails, small-town events, and easy access to North Bay’s shops and restaurants, this location offers the best of rural living with just the right touch of convenience.
For us, this place is more than just a neighborhood—it’s a way of life. We love sharing it with guests who are looking to experience the calm, beauty, and genuine hospitality that make Powassan so special.
Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt
What makes Foxfire Heritage Farm truly unique is the combination of authentic farm life, beautiful natural surroundings, and a one-of-a-kind glamping experience. Our Pondside Yurt isn’t just a place to stay—it’s part of a living, breathing heritage farm where rare and endangered livestock roam the pastures, gardens flourish with seasonal produce, and the pace of life slows to match the rhythms of nature.
The yurt itself sits right beside a peaceful, spring-fed pond, offering guests stunning views from sunrise to sunset. Step outside your door and you can sip your morning coffee while watching the mist rise off the water, enjoy an afternoon paddle or swim, or unwind in the evening with a campfire under the stars.
We’ve blended rustic charm with thoughtful comfort—wood heat for cozy nights, comfortable beds with fresh linens, and access to modern amenities like a hot shower and a wood-fired sauna. Our property offers complete privacy and tranquility, yet you’re welcome to explore our trails, visit the animals, or simply relax and take in the scenery.
Each season brings something special here: fresh blooms and baby animals in spring, warm summer days perfect for pond swims, brilliant fall colors, and crisp winter air for snowshoeing. This is more than a getaway—it’s a chance to reconnect with nature, experience the traditions of a heritage farm, and create lasting memories in a setting that feels both peaceful and inspiring.
