We stayed in a pod in the Pod Village (Epinette (Spruce) for one night in January 2024. This is a small unit with a table and four chairs, bathroom (shower), bedroom with dresser and a loft that is accessible by a ladder. There isn't a lot of headroom so this might be best suited to children. There is a kitchenette that is comprised of a minifridge, microwave, coffee maker (pods), electric kettle, sink and plates/glasses/cutlery etc. There is an electric heating unit in the kitchen/dining area, main bedroom and bathroom. Not sure about the loft. There are large screened windows that could be opened in warmer weather. All windows/glass sliding doors have blinds that can be drawn. Outside, there is a metal fire box and picnic table. The pod is entered through glass sliding doors. There is a small deck in front with two chairs. The Pod Village is comprised of several units but they are situated to provide privacy, particularly when using the firebox and picnic table. The unit was very comfortable and set in amongst the trees. There was a parking spot immediately in front of the pod. All walking surfaces from the parking space to the front door were treated to make walking safer (ice). We could not get onsite Wi-fi at our location. We built a fire and while enjoying it, noticed that a herd of fallow deer had walked up the road. We spent some time looking at one another. One male was quite confident and walked up to us, probably looking for a carrot. In the morning, some of the herd was again in the vicinity and we watched two males fighting in the distance. The Omegabon restaurant was within walking distance (10 minutes) of the pod village. Had a great breakfast there. Beautiful location. Guests who stay at the park can use a boardwalk which takes you through two wolf enclosures. During warmer months, bears can seen from here as well. As we were pressed for time, we drove to the parking lot that is closest to the boardwalk. Guests can attend a session where they see the wolves getting fed. Information about the two wolf packs is provided and guests can ask questions. Overall, a comfortable, memorable and enjoyable stay. Another time, we would probably stay at least two nights.
