Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Forest trails, campfires, chickens and sheep, coyotes howling at the night stars! Drive right up to your private cabin in the back forest of our 50-acre farm.

Queen Bed, Living Room, Open-Air Kitchenette on the covered porch right outside your door. Warm and cozy in the winter. Cool and shady in the summer. Solar panels provide electricity for lights and phone charging.

Private fire pit and picnic table right outside the cabin. 20-second walk to your clean private outhouse.

The space
Outside your door: a private fire pit, picnic table, and a clean, private outhouse just 20 seconds away.

Built in 2002, this is one of Ontario’s first straw bale buildings — handcrafted with care from natural, breathable materials. Its rounded corners and deep window sills feel like something from the desert Southwest — right here in Southern Ontario.

Explore trails, visit the chickens and sheep, or spend your day resting under the trees.

Wood for campfires can be purchased for $10 bag at the farm office.

Wood for indoor cabin heat is provided.

Guest access
The entire cabin is yours, along with access to the surrounding forest and meadows of Everdale Farm.

Other things to note
Everdale is an award-winning organic farm and education centre, committed to climate-positive, regenerative practices. Your stay supports ecological farming, food education, and land stewardship.

Neighbourhood highlights

On one side of the cabin is a pristine provincially-protected cedar forest wetland. On the other side are rolling hills sprinkled with gorgeous veggie fields, hedgerows, and pastureland.
We are at the headwaters of the Credit River. At the top of the property, you can see for miles. Trails connect all the wonders of the property - glorious sunsets, forest walks, wide open fields, nature exploration, foraging, wildlife sightings, and a creek that runs year-round in the upland forest at the back of the property.

Where I went to school: School of Hands-On Learning
My work: farming, teaching, community food projects
I’m a regenerative farmer, a teacher, and a believer in the power of community. One of my favourite things about travelling is being open to unique and often-unplanned experiences and making connections with people. Simple things like a shared smile with a passing stranger, or discovering a unique salsa at a roadside taco stand.
