L'Amable, Ontario · Hastings Highlands

A quiet bunkie, tucked into the trees.

One cozy cabin, a wide open meadow, and forest on every side — minutes from Bancroft, lakes, trails and the best rockhounding in Canada.

187 Bradshaw Road

A private retreat in the Ontario Highlands

The Bunkie sits at the end of a long forest driveway on a quiet stretch of Bradshaw Road, just south of Bancroft — the self-declared "Mineral Capital of Canada." Expect open meadow, deep quiet, and a short drive to lakes, trails, and small-town dinners.

Total privacy

Set well back from the road in its own cleared meadow, ringed by forest on every side.

🚗

Minutes from Bancroft

Calm river and autumn trees near the property
Nearby Water

Still water, big skies

The surrounding area is defined by water as much as forest — from quiet, glassy stretches close to home to the sandy public beaches at Silent Lake and Papineau Lake, a short drive away. It's the kind of place that rewards slowing down.
