“It’s the first time in months, I wasn’t multitasking in my head.”

— Mélissa, after a two-night stay at Prunella No. 3

A place to slow down

Just over an hour from Ottawa-Gatineau, yet far enough to shift your pace and settle into the quiet.
Warm wood interiors, cedar hot tubs and soft beds keep things comfortable without excess,
while natural materials and soft light make every space feel calm from the moment you arrive.

Seven cabins. 75 acres.
One shared intention: rest.

Every detail — from the materials we chose to the spaces we left untouched
— was shaped by a single question: does this make it easier to slow down?

BEYOND THE CABIN

Wander forest trails, gather under the pavilion, paddle from the dock, or settle in by the fire. With 75 private acres and quiet corners throughout, Prunella invites you to slow down and explore at your own pace.

INTIMATE CELEBRATIONS IN THE FOREST

A place to gather, stay, and celebrate — all in one setting. Prunella hosts elopements and micro-weddings for couples who want something personal, unhurried, and surrounded by nature. Exchange vows under the trees, share a meal in the pavilion, and end the night by the fire with the people who matter most.

EVERY SEASON HAS ITS QUIET

Prunella is a year-round retreat. Summer brings lake days and long evenings on the deck. Fall fills the forest with colour. Winter is wood stoves, snow-covered trails, and the kind of silence you can actually hear. Spring opens everything back up — birdsong, green, and the smell of wet earth. Each season changes the feeling, but the rest stays the same.

"I felt calmer within minutes of arriving."

Prunella offers more than a change of scenery. It gives you room to pause, breathe deeper, and settle back into yourself. Step outside, hear the wind in the trees, and remember what quiet can feel like.

“Beautiful, quiet, and incredibly restorative — we left feeling completely reset.” — Steve
