One of Bardo Cabins' two, four-season sister-cabins; Pine Cabin is quietly nestled below a granite outcrop among towering old pines on the beautiful, quiet, fifteen acre Dube Lake. Hike, bike, snowshoe or ski the private two kilometers of trails, dive and sunbathe from your own floating dock or wade at a nearby sandy shore, relax bug-free on the screened-in porch listening to the sounds of Bardo's surrounding ten acres of mixed old growth forest, or venture beyond to nearby amenities.

Pine Cabin is a rustic and cozy 500 square feet, with two bedrooms, a full bathroom with tub, and a living room/kitchen common area. The living room has two full couches, an HDMI-ready smart tv with streaming apps, Starlink high-speed internet, wifi, and a wood stove. The kitchen is well-appointed with a full-sized electric stove/oven and has a four-seat dining table. The attached screened in porch has a bistro table and a gas grill.

There is a flight of stairs down from the parking area, and more stairs back up to the cabin. A hundred foot trail leads to our other cabin, but in summer there is some privacy provided between them by the forest foliage. The cabin has its own dock with excellent weed-free, deep water swimming. The 100-foot boardwalk out to the swimming dock crosses a distinct floating bog ecosystem filled with rare plants and dwarf trees, frogs, turtles and a resident beaver family. Watch out for our local old snapping turtle Sheldon. He loves hotdogs, but prefers not to be touched. There is only four dwellings on Lake Dube; two of them make up Bardo Cabins. There is no motors on the lake. Right across the street there is a public swimming area with a shallow, sandy shoreline perfect for youngsters not quite ready for plunging off our dock.

There are more than two kilometers of marked trails throughout the property, ideal for hiking and mountain biking spring to fall, and nordic skiing and snowshoeing in the winter (snowshoes provided). We don't permit motorized vehicles on the property beyond the parking area, but there’s a long network of top shelf atv/snowmobile/biking trails very close by (Seguin Recreation Trail). For the paddlers we have a canoe, a tandem kayak, two youth kayaks, and two inflatable SUPs to share between the two cabins. Access to a network of paddling and portaging is right across the street on Lake Manitouwaba. The fishing in our lake isn't great, but there's bass in the lake across the street.

The cabin’s water is from the lake and is naturally tea-stained by organic matter and minerals. A reverse-osmosis-filtered drinking water tap can be found on the kitchen sink. We drink the water and test it regularly, but we can't guarantee it for you. If you'd prefer, bring along your own drinking water.

Each cabin has a firepit, and a fireplace. We provide the firewood, which we process ourselves for your use, at our pleasure.
