This is a glamping in a canvas yurt. May be cold in winter.You will need sleeping bags. :)We are currently closed, if interested please contact ahead of booking.Thanks! The space The yurts are located on our home property of about 5 acres. Our kids play in the forest often so the yard space will be shared. Please note, this is more of a camping experience. (There is NO kitchen, no real bathroom etc. ) In Fall & Winter is cool so you will need warm clothing and sleeping bag. Currently, we have left our winter insulation up so you cannot unzip the windows. It can be very hot inside during the summer days. There is an roofed outdoor classroom attached that you can sit under. There is no garbage please pack in/out the garbage you make. You MUST take all of your garbage with you. Thank you for this. Our bathroom has a composting toilet (it is a bucket with sawdast but has a real toilet seat). We will show you how to use it. It is a requirement that you empty your toilet waste into the compost on exit. There is a fox who lives on the property and we like to think she is our friend. We ask for everyone to respect her area and not to forage on our land. There is crown land near by if you would like to adventure. The property is used for a Forest School during the year. You can sleep on the padded floor or Cots are available on request. We have 4 cots if needed. Sleeping bags are necessary. Many sleep on the floor as it is soft. A bundle of firewood will be given, extra can be purchased for an extra cost of $7 per bundle. There is no electricity, but we have small twinkle lights and a few solar powered lanterns in the yurts. Please bring a headlamp or other light source :) Please take care with all food as there is wildlife. Pick up any crumbs that you may have dropped on the earth or in outdoor classroom it will help keep the animals wild and free. Feeding them teaches them not to practise being scavengers and can be harmful on their tummies. It also helps to cut down on mice, squirrels and porcupines :) In addition, we offer Soundhealing, Breathwork and Forest Therapy. You can book on Rootsandbranchesfs .com website. Or Please inquire if you would like to book one of these experiences! We can also plan a full weekend retreat for you! Here are some of our Must Do's! Sound Bath Therapy - Participants relax, lie down on a yoga mat or sit in a chair cuddled beneath a blanket while the room is infused with a variety of musical instruments. Using Singing Bowls, flutes, drums, bells,song and a Gong to put the mind and body into deep relaxation. Guided Meditations, Reiki, mantras can be infused to achieve certain goals. These sessions can be very healing and therapeutic for all. You have opportunity to rejuvenate your mind, restore and heal. Forest Therapy - Find answers, relax and go within. Through a series of guided invitations or tasks participants will experience a therapy session like no other. This is done outdoors in our Boreal Forest. Participants take time to mindfully awaken the senses to what is all around us. Participants will experience smells, sounds, touch and taste and participate in a series of invitations in the forest. This program includes shared council where participants are invited to share their answers and experiences if comfortable. This sharing method can help release emotions or bring on memories of joy. Forest Therapy is an ancient healing practise from Japan called Shin Rin Yo Ku. Breathwork - Lie or sit down and listen to music while you are guided. Experience a flow of DMT into the body. Breathwork can be healing, relaxing and transformational. We can plan a full retreat for you and your friends with what you like. Ask about our retreat options which include sound therapy or forest therapy. Our location is great for a girls weekend, someone travelling across Canada, corporate team-building or a family who is on an adventure! We also offer online wellness sessions! Guest access The Back property where the yurts are located. You will sleep in the yurts with just yourselves. Our children play in the yard so you may see them in the forest. They are sometimes curious about our guests and may wish to say hello :) We also have a roaming friendly Lab Husky Dog. Other things to note We have NO garbage facility. The garbage, recycling you create you must take with you. The area we live in does not have a garbage collection so we aim for less waste if possible. Please be mindful of this. Please respect the animals and wildlife. No feeding please. Pick up all crumbs and food when finished. Thank you for helping protect our wildlife. Please no eating inside the yurt. We sometimes have a mouse friend who visits and we would like to keep her outside as much as possible :) We ask that you kindly empty the composting toilet throughout your stay and before leaving. It is easy to do and we will show you how:) Thank you so much! We have 4 cots for sleeping but more could sleep on the floor if needed as it is a padded space!
