A Magical Forest Retreat

Parksland Retreat Sunrise Cabin C1

This was our second trip to Parksland and staying again in the C1 Cabin. It was even more magical than the first time! The hosts are wonderful souls and this place of peace is just a really lucky find. The cabin itself is secluded, yet close enough to amenities to be convenient. We love sitting on the porch and enjoying a quiet sunrise coffee. We think you will too! Highly recommend!

My partner and I enjoyed Parksland so much! It was my second time staying, and it was just as magical as the first. Our site was secluded and right next to a flowing creek. Dustin was a kind and accommodating host. We will definitely be back!!

My experience at Parksland was so good! I really liked how our campsites were spaced out while still being able to socialize with other campers as you pleased! My campsite was on the creekside, which was very soothing to hear the stream of flowing water. If you are looking for a place to camp and do some hiking, this is the place for you! I would highly recommend.

I had an excellent primitive spot in the creek bend, and could hear riffles all evening. This site is ideal for both a two person tent on very flat, sandy ground and to hang a hammock. Saturday was sauna night, which is in an excellent space. I completely understand why you can only bring kiln dried firewood on property. I chose to purchase from them and that wood burned absolutely perfect. That was a very pleasant surprise.
