At The River — Secluded Cabin with Private River Access | Cabin in Woodlands County
2 Bedroom Cabin in Fort Assiniboine, Woodlands County
At The River is a boutique riverside nature retreat nestled on a 100-acre private nature sanctuary in wild Alberta, just 1.5 hours northwest of Edmonton.
With private access to the Freeman River just 30 metres from the cabin, you'll enjoy your own peaceful stretch of riverfront complete with a natural swimming hole, a stone and pebble shoreline, and a sandy island in the middle of the river. Spend your days swimming, floating the current, exploring the shoreline, or simply relaxing by the water. As evening falls, gather around the riverside campfire (firewood provided!) and soak in the golden sunset before a sky full of stars and if you're lucky, northern lights.
Wake up to the sound of the river, birdsong, and the wind moving through the trees. Beyond the river, explore forest trails, wetlands, scenic viewpoints, and abundant wildlife. Deer, beavers, bald eagles, owls, and countless songbirds are common visitors, while moose, bears, coyotes, cougars and other native wildlife also call this sanctuary home.
The cozy cabin comfortably sleeps up to four adults and features one king bedroom, one queen bedroom, a fireplace, propane stove, and a private outdoor washhouse with a hot shower, sink, and toilet. 2 toddler mattress are available upon request. Although our family home is located approximately 300 metres away on the hill, the cabin enjoys its own peaceful riverside setting immersed in nature.
