Retreat cottage on your own private 12-acre pond.

This is a private off-grid modern pine cottage on a 12 acre pond with crown land surrounding. It is located in the Hastings highlands county north of Bancroft. No electricity except a solar panel for your phone and laptop to charge. Stove fireplace in living room, with dry wood added for renters but may require kindling brought in. Water is a pump from a well safe for washing. We supply a large water jug from the maynooth corner for drinking and cooking on the Coleman. Small propane tank provided, one per customer. It is a beautiful retreat and provides the necessities. A new kayak has been added for vrbo renters. Suitable for the self-sustaining, nature lover with outdoor amenities: campfire, cuisineart charcoal bbq, walking trails, and a beaver damn to visit from the pond. Screened-in porch facing the pond, and an outdoor picnic table complete the tranquility and peace of the cabin’s location. The canoe on the property is not available with the rental.
