Escape the everyday and immerse yourself in absolute tranquility at The Bradshaw Bunkie, a cozy cabin tucked privately into the trees. Set against a wide-open meadow surrounded by forest, this is your ultimate off-grid-style nature retreat — just a short drive from lakes, trails and small-town experiences.
The Bunkie sits at the end of a long forest driveway on a quiet stretch of Bradshaw Road, just south of Bancroft, the self-declared "Mineral Capital of Canada." Expect open meadow, deep quiet, and a short drive to lakes, trails, and small-town dinners.
Two bedrooms:
Set well back from the road in its own cleared meadow, ringed by forest on every side.
A short drive to restaurants, a farmers' market, mineral collecting, and Highway 62.
The surrounding area is defined by water as much as forest — from quiet, glassy stretches close to home to the sandy public beaches at Silent Lake and Papineau Lake, a short drive away. It's the kind of place that rewards slowing down.
Explore the Area →Rockhound the Mineral Capital of Canada, hike to the Eagle's Nest lookout, swim a quiet lake, or just sit on the deck and watch the meadow. Full guide on the Explore page.
