Southwestern Ontario
Sleep in tall forests in a comfortable oTENTik, a tented A-frame on a raised wood floor. Each sleeps six on comfy foam beds, has an eating/lounging area plus a grill (and a wildlife-proof food storage locker). Even tableware is included. And did we mention the porch with Adirondack chairs? In winter, a wood stove warms up the place by remote control.
Entry fees not included in the nightly rate.
