More than an accommodation - we are a destination!

Situated on a 500-acre property overlooking the Laurentian Mountains with multiple water access options. We provide the opportunity to disconnect in order to reconnect! Slow down to enjoy life's simple pleasures or fuel your energetic self with an abundance of onsite outdoor activities for every season. Experience an off-grid lifestyle in warmth and comfort.



The cabin is a cozy log cabin nestled in the forest in its own remote wilderness setting. Being the most secluded stay on the land, this log cabin in the woods is a perfect destination to leave the business of the world behind & become fully present in nature’s serenity. With the Bang’s Bay waterfront, the Little Mountain hike, & creek that runs through the land just a short walk away, this cabin is a central point for surrounding exploration & discovery.



The cabin is spacious and can comfortably accommodate two to six people. There is an open concept kitchen and living room area, a large bedroom with a queen bed and a separate bunkie room with a bunk bed consisting of one double and one single bed. There is also an indoor compost toilet. The backdoor leads to a fully screened in deck with patio set. Hammocks are also set up and ready to enjoy in the warmer months.



The cabin is self-sufficient and set up for all your basic needs, including: cooking, cleaning and serving. All you should need is a cooler with your food. For cooking, there is an indoor propane double burner, a BBQ and an outdoor fire pit. All kitchen necessities are provided. There is no running water – however, large jugs of water from the onsite natural spring are provided. For heating, there is a woodstove inside to maintain a warm and cozy temperature. Wood for indoor heating is included with your stay.



There is no electricity in this off-grid setting - however, natural lighting is captured from several windows. A USB powered lightbulb and power bank is provided for additional lighting at night time. Please note that there is no wifi or cell service at the dome, which has become a selling feature for our destination as guests are looking to disconnect. If you 'must' connect, there is one place on the property to tap into service or there is full service a quick drive down the road. The Town of Mattawa is also a 15-minute drive away.



The road to the cabin is maintained in all seasons. Guests can drive and park right at the accommodation. As we are situated on a large property, guests can walk, bike or drive to various activity access points on the property.

Guests can enjoy swimming, canoeing, kayaking, stand-up paddling or floating in a tube on the beautiful Bang’s Bay, which connects to the Ottawa River. You can also take a dip in the creek at the Dome or take a hike to Scooper Lake for a remote wilderness swim. In the right seasons, there is an abundance of wild berries, wild edibles and mushrooms to pick and forage.

Enjoy the extensive trail system for snowshoeing and back-country skiing. For an adrenaline ride, slide down one of the 7 unique tubing luge runs in our tubing park or enjoy ice skating on the pond. If you have children, you will want to experience the activities in our adventure passport: outdoor obstacle course, groomed scavenger hunt loop, interactive “Foxy” story trail and snow mountain scrabble. At the end of the day, relax and unwind with a hot cup of cocoa by the fire or enjoy a hot sauna.



Please note that the tubing and sauna must be reserved in advance and extra fees apply. All other winter activities are included with your stay. Please inquire directly to reserve the sauna or tubing.



Other items to note:

Showers (warmer seasons): Three outdoor eco-showers are available, whereby water is collected in a holding tank from the natural spring, passively heated by the sun and gravity fed into the showers.



Showers (colder seasons): We have created a unique shower set up as part of the sauna experience.



Wood-fired Sauna: The sauna experience is often a highlight and includes a unique manual pump shower set up. The sauna can be reserved by the hour for your own private use. The cost is $73.45 for the hour for 2 guests + $5.65 per additional guest (includes HST). We will get everything ready, including delivering the water and lighting candles if it's at night time. It takes approximately 2.5 hours to get the sauna hot and ready and the time must be coordinated in advance.
