Micro-cabin nestled in secluded forest

As the seasons shift, so to do the everchanging colours of autumn. Enjoy a hike along our numerous trails, take some photos then relax in front of the cozy woodstove. Our property is a great place to decompress whether you relax with a book, or hike our beautiful trails. Experience the peace that comes with 120 acres of boreal forest and enjoy several kilometers of hiking trails and plenty of privacy. Pack your gear, bring your dog and exhale!

We are less than an hour's drive north of Winnipeg along highways 7, 8 or 9 with pavement access to our gated property driveway.

The cabin is equipped with a lofted double bed accessed by a ladder. We provide kitchenware (cutlery, dishes, pots, pans, French press, BBQ utensils, etc..), potable bottled water, a propane indoor regulated stove top, as well as an outdoor gas barbeque.

We provide firewood for outdoor bonfires as well as cut/split wood for the indoor woodstove. (Unless Burn Ban in effect)

Bring your pillows, bedding, towels, food and beverages. Being off-grid with a minimal solar power system, there is no refrigerator; please bring a cooler.

There is a small solar system to light the cabin, power small appliances, and charge your devices and a Cubic Mini Woodstove to combat the cold. The micro-cabin has an eco-friendly filtered rain-water collection system with gravity flow shower and wash basin. The water is as warm as the sun can heat the black barrel! The site features solar lighting, picnic table and fire-pit w/grill. A new outhouse is close by and there are outdoor games in the common area.

We have a second cabin "Blue Owl Tiny House" in event Micro Cabin is already booked, or get together with friends and book them both!

"Get your steps in" while exploring our 120 acres of land with numerous kilometers trail. Great for hiking/biking, birdwatching, or catching a glimpse of wildlife. Saskatoon berries are plentiful this year, bring a container! There are places to sit and enjoy the quiet along the way. We have a small pond with floating dock which is a lovely place to relax. Have fun finding treasures on our Scavenger Hunts. (Printed lists and trail maps provided.)

During the winter months we do our best to keep the majority of our trails packed and groomed making for terrific dog walking, snowshoeing or fat tire biking. Though the cabins are technically closed during the cold months, but the trails are too good not to share with other outdoor enthusiasts.

While in season the Cranberries, Chokecherries and Saskatoon berries are in abundance. You'll see lots of wildflowers along the trail: Indian Paintbrush, Black-eyed Susans, Tiger Lillies, Lady Slippers and Marsh Marigolds just to name a few.

We're located close to the tourist town of Gimli but just slightly off the beaten path. We hope you consider our micro-cabin for a slightly different get-away and welcome your enquiries.

Our second cabin is now open and accepting bookings: www.vrbo.com "The Blue Owl tiny house experience" Vrbo CA 9466340

Bob and Sharon’s tiny cabin perfectly secluded and was a lovely stay for my girlfriend and I! Plenty of lake-side towns close by, beautiful scenery, and a very well kept accommodation. Bigger than you’d think! Check-in was simple and it felt like home almost immediately. Would definitely stay again :)

Micro Cabin-a slice of paradise!

100/10 stars! Bob and Sharon were quick to respond, friendly, warm, knowledgable and incredibly helpful! Such amazing hosts! The micro cabin is unreal, such a little gem! Cozy, clean, everything you want or need is there and ready to use. There was so much thought and effort into this cabin and the needs of guests. The property! Trails upon trails to explore. I spend so much time in the trails and yet I didn't get all the items on the savanger hunt, guess that means I'll have to go back next year for another stay! I'll be going back as often as I possibly can, I already look forward to it. Thank you Bob and Sharon for sharing this lovely, quiet, peaceful place with Myla and I! We appreciate you so much and we had the best vacation 🙂 They

This micro cabin was soooo nice for me and my little dog! We had the best time and look forward to returning and hopefully renting the tiny cabin as well with more friends and pups. The walking trails were very fun and everything was very well thought out and cute. The hosts were also very amazing people! Couldn't recommend enough.

My Great Escape

I had a great time walking the trails and experiencing the beautiful backdrop all around me and being close to nature (unfortunately mosquitoes are part of nature too). The hammock was my go-to spot to rest after having long walks and a quick shower using rainwater. My two nights were spent next to the warm glow of the fire pit and enjoyed the peace and solitude, punctuated by the occasional coyote yipping in the distance. Liked that the cabin is hooked up to solar panels for power, even for the small pump used for drawing drinking water. Love how the treetops swayed with the wind and the sound of the leaves rustling as if telling you to be still and chill. Hope to be back someday.
