Cozy Woodland Bunkie + Outdoor Shower + WiFi

Welcome to The Pinecone Bunkie — a cozy forest hideaway tucked within 40 acres of peaceful woodland. This charming bunkie was designed for guests who want the magic of a cabin-in-the-woods experience while still having the comfort of modern essentials. Wake up to birdsong, sip coffee on the porch, spend your day exploring the forest, and end the evening by the fire under a sky full of stars.

We like to keep things clear and upfront so you can feel 100% confident about what to expect. Here are a few helpful things to know before your stay:

Temperature & Seasons: The bunkie is available year-round and is insulated, has a diesel heater that keeps things warm all year round. We do supply wood, and the diesel will be filled, but you will be responsible for refilling if you run out. Also, bring some firestarters to help get the fire going quicker. If you are coming in winter or intermit weather, we are assuming you "know what you're in for" and will pack and dress appropriately to be in the bush. In winter, the road may not be plowed and could require a short walk in. Bring extra blankets for chilly nights.

Washroom & Shower: A shared washroom with warm/cold shower, toilet, and an outdoor well-access tap is nearby and easy to access.

Water & Electricity: There’s a tap on-site for general use (well water, not filtered). The sink has cold, unfiltered well water. There is no "filtered" drinking water on-site—please bring your own. The bunkie is equipped with solar-powered lighting and basic power.

Wi-Fi & Cell Service: We now have Wi-Fi available. Being in the forest, it may still go out occasionally, so we wouldn't recommend planning to work much while you are here.

Garbage: There are no large garbage bins and no roadside pickup. Please be prepared to bring your garbage to the dump during your stay, or you will need to bring it home with you to dispose of it. If any garbage is left behind, a $75.00 cleanup, transfer, and dump fee will be charged.
