The two-person, 275-square-foot cabins seek to reconnect guests with the powers of nature and are located in a top-secret spot less than two hours from Toronto.

The stainless-steel design and large windows allow the abodes to be almost invisible, and you can wake up surrounded by lush trees and the peaceful sounds of the forest.

Along with the stay, guests can experience activities such as a sauna, guided forest bathing, and a meditative sound journey.
