Reconnect with nature at Tall Pines Nature Retreats, where a luxurious hand-painted yurt with an indoor soaker tub offers comfort and calm in a forest sanctuary on a boutique horticultural farm. Stargaze by the fire, unwind beneath intricate ceiling art, or explore a magical riverside. Paddle, swim, or float with seasonal use of canoe, kayak, SUPs, or snowshoes. This is a registered agri-tourism farm offering a nature and wellness retreat—not a typical short-term rental. L’Orange Yurt is a traditional Mongolian Ger (yurt) featuring a hand painted 9’ ceiling with skylight featuring:
- Private outdoor space and hot tub - Toilet and sink with hot water - Indoor soaker tub - Bathrobes and towels - Queen bed with down duvet & 4 pillows - High quality white cotton linens - Indoor fireplace (electric) - Kitchenette with cooking essentials - Outdoor BBQ with side burner - Outdoor fire pit/bowl - Complimentary firewood - Nespresso machine & coffee pods - Selection of teas - BlueAir HEPA filter for germ-free air - Canoe (seasonal)* - Double kayak & single kayak (seasonal)* - Stand Up Paddle Boards (seasonal)* - Two pairs of snowshoes (seasonal)
*paddling season is weather dependent, typically runs from mid May to late October
Tall Pines Nature Retreats is located about 1 km off County Road 503, with a paved, well-maintained road accessible year-round. Guests access the yurt via a flat, seasonal walk-in trail approximately 300 feet from the designated parking area.
We operate a boutique horticulture farm on the property that specializes in native trees and plants. Nature retreat guests have access to shared trails, waterfront and sitting areas throughout the five acre property.
There are two yurts at Tall Pines Nature Retreats. L’Orange yurt sits on its own private acre surrounded by mature forest and neighboured by our family log chalet on one side and La Rouge Yurt (airbnb.com/h/larougeyurt) on the other side. Both yurts have been designed with utmost attention to detail for your privacy so you will be totally immersed in nature.
We operate a seasonal farm stand near the roadside where you can purchase fresh eggs, maple syrup and native plants.
Freshly laid, organic, forest free range eggs are available on request inside your yurt ($3 half dz).
You may encounter chickens wandering around, or dwarf goats playing in the front field, they are all very friendly :)
We welcome your inquiries and look forward to hosting you!
