Four Season Off Grid Cabins
The Iron Mountain Wilderness Cabins are our own custom designed steel cabins with an integrated porch. We had them prefabricated for us here in Nova Scotia from 60% recycled steel and used a plant based spray foam to insulate them. We are proud of our unique 100% off -grid steel cabins. They have been built to serve our guests for a long time to come in all four seasons and to withstand our backcountry mountain environment while being comfortable, practical and cozy to spend time and rest in. Guests use washroom and shower facilities available close by in the lodge.
Our cabins sleep 4 - with a max of 3 adults (top bunk for children). For parties that exceed this, please book two or more cabins, or contact us to see how we can accommodate you.
