Living almost off the grid in Huttopia, Lac Monroe Mont Tremblant, Quebec.
We stayed 2 nights (2 adults and 2 kids) in one of these wonderful Huttopia's at Lac Monroe, Quebec Provincial Park near Mont Tremblant, about 3 hours east of Ottawa Ontario, Canada.
These huts are provided with everything you need to experience life in a Hut ; you only need to bring sleeping bags, food and drinks. You can buy a bundle of Firewood for $7.50 at the Service Centre.
Cost was about $100 per night but well worth it for the adventures and experience of living (almost) off the Grid for 3 days.
They had an outlet with one light and a small fridge. Cooking was on the fire or small propane stove....
I'd love to find one of these Canvas Huts for Sale, so far no luck. Anyone know where I could buy one ?
Beautiful and clean Lake Monroe is perfect for kayak or canoe.
I caught a 3 lb pickerel in the 1st 1/2 hour of fishing. You can also rent Kayaks, Canoes, and Stand Up Paddle Boards at the Service Centre.

Could you live in a 6' x 5' Cedar Barrel Sauna ?
This wonderful structure is available for $3999 ...
We'll see if we can make some modifications to sleep 4. Think removable Bunk beds. You could seat 4 indoors for meals or during inclement weather, convert to Sauna then sleeping quarters at night.
