Located in south-central Ontario, Algonquin Provincial Park is a paradise for nature lovers and adventures alike. It encompasses freshwater lakes, rivers, and lush forests teeming with wildlife such as loons, moons and bears. The park also has several hiking trails, such as the Barron Canyon Trail and Whiskey Rapids Trail by the Oxtongue River. Adventurers can indulge in kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and other outdoor activities here. There are also numerous campgrounds near the park, but if you’re looking for creature comforts, we’d recommend booking a cabin. To that end, here’s our pick of the top cabin rentals near Algonquin Provincial Park, Canada.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 12, 2024.
1. The Laker Cabin in Camp Bongopix (from USD 148)
Step back in time with a stay at this cozy retreat on the Madawaska River. One of the five retro cabins offered by Camp Bongopix, the property whisks you away into disco fever, with VHS, turntable, and more vintage items to remind you of the 80s.
While guests are welcome to revel in tunes and dance the night away, a quiet policy should be observed come midnight as consideration to other guests. Note that the place is free of the trivialities of WiFi, but who needs to be online when you can spend the day outside playing fetch with your canine friend. Launch the free-to-use canoe provided in each cabin to explore the calm river or simply lounge in the beach area while savoring the peaceful vibe.
