Tiny Cabin #10 - inches from Lake Cecebe

This is a 10X10 tiny cabin. This is meant to be a budget option for people who like camping but do not like sleeping in a tent. This cabin has one ultra-comfortable queen bed, a table and 2 chairs. Inside there is a hand-painted mural inspired by the beauty of the camp. The large covered porch is a few meters from the shores of Lake Cecebe. For the bathroom, there is a private outhouse. There is also a shared indoor bathroom/shower within walking distance. A map is included for self-check in. The space The water from every tap is drinkable. There are 2 Muskoka chairs and a picnic table so you can enjoy your time outdoors. Bedding-your bed will be made up nice for you. Please bring towels to enjoy a dip in the lake. Boats-your rental includes unlimited use of canoes, kayaks, stand up paddle boards and a pedal boat. Beach-your rental includes access to a private sandy beach with a raft to enjoy the sunshine. Your space also has a private dock and campfire pit. There is a large well equipped shared kitchen with everything you need to prepare gourmet meals! There is a shared indoor bathroom and shower for cabins who do not have their own. Our camp is close to nearby sites (rapids, artists, shops, trails, parks etc. See the Additional Notes Section for our Top 10 Free Nearby Experiences) Extra Fees -we sell a large wheelbarrow of firewood for $20 Garbage and Recycling Our landfill site is VERY strict when it comes to recyclables being mixed with garbage. They require us to use clear garbage bags. We provide these at each location. If you need more clear garbage bags, please let us know. If you put recyclables in your garbage bag, we have to sort through your garbage to separate them. Please help us by recycling all paper, glass, cans and plastic (even plastic bags are recycled). The bins are located near Cabin #8. See the camp map in the profile photos. Composting Near the communal/shared kitchen we have a compost heap. Please only add fruit/vegetable scraps, coffee grounds and eggshells. No meat please. Drinking Water We have a spring-fed well that is treated and tested every day. The water from every tap in the camp is drinkable. Please DO NOT bring bottled water. Also, there is a nearby spring to fill up your water bottles. From the camp turn right onto Highway 520. Take your first left (Horner Rd). Drive until you see a black pipe coming from the ground. Here you will find ice-cold spring water. WIFI We have 8 cabins spread across 20 acres and have considered making wifi available at each location. However, after much consultation with our guests, they have almost always requested no wifi access in their cabins so it is easier to stay disconnected to truly enjoy their stay. At the communal kitchen, you will find reliable wifi (but slow) which is no more than a 3-minute walk from your cabin. There is a cellular tower nearby so reception is perfect. Other things to note Below are a few of our favorite FREE local sites. 1. Thompson Rapids (20 minute drive) – named after the inspiration for the Group of Seven Artist, Tom Thompson. This scene is straight out of a Muskoka magazine or Group of Seven canvas. There is a grassy area to spread out a picnic blanket, a picnic table and an outhouse. Bring your camera because the views are spectacular. There is a small trail near the parking area which takes you to the best views. 2. Knoepfli (pronounced can-niff-o-lee) Rapids (10 minute drive) – these rapids are more intense than Thompson Rapids but there is a nice swimming spot at the very end. Bring a picnic lunch and a good book and lose yourself in the serenity of the rushing water. 3. Distress River Paddle (10 minute paddle from your cabin to the mouth of the river) – don’t let the name fool you. We think it should be called De-stress River. This meandering river takes you away from the open water for as far as your heart desires. If you are quiet you are almost guaranteed to see some wildlife – mallard or merganser ducks, the great blue heron, dozens of birds and maybe even a busy beaver or thirsty deer. Once in the early morning fog, a moose swam beside our canoe! There are also a plethora of wild water plants including a rare pink river orchid! 4. The Magnetawan Park and Dam Trail (3 minute drive, 30 minute walk or 40 minute paddle) – this park has it all! Tall shady trees, soft sandy beach, swimming docks and rafts, a covered pavilion, a playground equipment for the kids, and outdoor workout equipment for the adults. Follow the path to one of the few remaining hand-operated lock systems in Canada. Cross over the whole dam and there is a nice trail around a small island. Stroll it and check out the many variety of trees or jog a few laps for a fantastic trail run. 5. The Spring (2 minute drive, 20 minute walk) – this ain’t no “Himalayan Spring Water” sucked from the local municipal tap. This is the real deal. Ice cold, crystal clear spring water filtered by Mother Nature herself. Don’t forget your water bottle! 6. Screaming Heads (15 minute drive) – let's just say you would not want to be lost here at night on Halloween! Peter Camani is a local artist who has transformed his rolling hillside property into a work of art. Large concrete ghostly shapes emerge from the ground surrounding a medieval home complete with a two-headed dragon as a chimney. Stroll around lush ponds and organic gardens to capture some memorable snapshots. Bring your camera, some bug spray and an open mind. 7. Sundridge Park & Scenic Lookout (20 minute drive) – this is a must for families with young children! Nestled on the shores of Lake Bernard, Sundrige park has everything to keep the little ones entertained outdoors. A rockin' splash pad, huge jungle gym, covered pavilions and best of all the lake is knee-deep and sand bottom for at least 100 meters. This is also a great spot to have a game of knee-deep football with your friends. When you are all tuckered out jump back in the car for a short drive to a stunning lookout point high on the rocky cliffs of Lake Bernard. 8. Sunset Drift (1 minute from your dock) – one of our favorite things to do at the end of a beautiful day is to drift in a canoe or kayak, turn to the historic lighthouse and watch the sun set into the lake! Living the dream. 9. Echo Rock (3 hour round trip paddle) – this trip is not for the faint of heart, but the views are worth all of the effort! The paddle southeast up the lake will take you past grandiose cottages and tiny islands. Once there you can have a picnic lunch and swim on a miniature island facing the massive granite wall named Echo Rock (a-hem, this is where we were engaged). Paddle in front of the rock and shout out your dreams. TRAVEL THE WOR WOR wor wor wor world! 10. Local Trails and Walks – A.The Cornelia Levering Trail meanders through the forest surrounding the small local 9-hole golf course. Hunt for wild edible mushrooms and golf balls gone astray. The start of this trail is a short 5 minute drive from your cabin.        B.The Burk’s Falls Heritage walk takes you across an old covered bridge and down an easy walking trail ending at the fairground in the back of Burk’s Falls. The start of this trail is a 15-minute drive from your cabin.        C.The Group of Seven Mural Walk – this is not a trail but it is quite the adventure to find all 33 massive murals copied from Group of Seven masterpieces. During the artist scavenger hunt, stop off at one of the many shops in the bustling town of Huntsville. The start of this walk is a 45-minute drive from your cabin. 11. WE FOUND A NEW GEM!  We call it Old Man’s Creek Trail.  This is a BEAUTIFUL 1km trail.  Just a few meters in, the trail splits right and left.  Go to the right and you will be surprised by a beautiful waterfall perfect for taking pictures.  Be sure to swing back and take the left route as the entire trail is breathtaking.  Another bonus, chances are you will be the only one on the trail!  From the camp head into Magnetawan.  Turn left at the stop sign and head straight out of town for around 8km.  You will see The Cornball Store on your right-hand side where you can stop and get homemade baked goods or ice cream.  Continue past the Cornball store then turn right onto Ahmic Lake Road.  Continue on this road until you see a bridge.  Park on the shoulder RIGHT after the bridge.  You will see the entrance to the trail.
