5 Amazing Airbnb’s + Hotels In The Woods
1. Nimmo Bay Wilderness Resort
Nimmo Bay Wilderness Resort might just be the most perfect forest resort in the world. Quoted from their website, “Awaken your senses at our intimate family-owned wilderness resort in the heart of Canada’s Great Bear Rainforest, on the wild shores of the Pacific Ocean, far from the everyday.” YES PLEASE!
2. Mont-Tremblant Treehouses
If you are looking for a glamping outdoors experience check out the Mount-Tremblant Treehouses on AirBnb.
“Our 4-season treehouses are nestled on the edge of a pristine lake in a 2000 acre protected regional park with 36km of walking/snowshoe trails, 4 lakes, wetlands. Basic kitchen, wood burning stove, sunny terraces, fire pit and picnic table. We also offer treehouses that can sleep 4 guests(see our other listing on Airbnb). This is “ready-to-camp” so somewhere between a chalet and camping. We are off-grid(no road, no electricity) in a wilderness setting.”

3. Killarney Lodge
This stunning lodge is in my favourite Canadian park, Algonquin Provincial Park. This area is very beautiful and peaceful, and I have seen 5 Moose here.
“On the peninsula by the Lake of Two Rivers in the heart of Algonquin Park, some of Canada’s most beautiful and pristine wilderness. Your canoe and chipmunks at the door – loons, ducks and beavers on the lake. Enjoy moose spotting, hiking and bike trails, or just relax on your deck and take in an Algonquin sunset. Algonquin Park has vast areas of forests, lakes and rivers of unspoiled beauty. The sound of the loons on the lake, moose strolling through the lily pads, beavers building a dam or any of the spectacular sights provide memories to last a lifetime. You might not expect to be indulged in such comfort in the heart of Ontario’s wilderness. Who could ask for more?”
