About this property
Wild Rose Cabin at Tin Poppy: Off-Grid Glamping + Private Sauna near Salmon Arm.
Wild Rose Cabin Off-Grid & Unapologetically Rustic
Glamping = glamour + camping, and we take both seriously. Wild Rose Cabin sits on 160 wooded acres above the Shuswap River ~ no wifi, no neighbours, just birdsong and a king bed built for mischief. Add a private wood-fired sauna for extra glow. Off-grid but not roughing it: clean drinking water, linens, and stocked outhouse all provided. Pet-friendly, propane-powered. 14km of trails to work off the car ride. 25 min to Salmon Arm/Enderby, 10 min to Larch Hills Nordic trails.
If "chop wood, carry water" sounds more like therapy than work, If you're looking to unplug, reconnect, and trade notifications for birdsong, welcome to Wild Rose.
This is a true off-grid log cabin tucked into the forest near Salmon Arm, no electricity, no running water, no wifi pretending to be "digital detox." Just you, the woods, and a very good king-size bed in the loft (plus a double futon downstairs, sleeping up to four). Couples tend to fall hard for this one, cozy, quiet, and built for snuggling up under a fluffy duvet while the wood-burning fireplace does its thing.
The Basics, Handled Propane runs the show here: a full stove and oven in the kitchen (yes, you can bake that cake), a French press for your morning coffee, and pots, pans, and dishes ready to go. Bring your groceries, your coffee, your cooking oil, salt and pepper's on us.
Out on the screened porch, a propane BBQ and mini fridge/freezer keep things simple (in winter, we swap to coolers when Mother Nature does the refrigerating for us).
Roughing It, Comfortably Showering here is part 1980's camp trip, part spa day, fill the bag, hang it up, and enjoy a warm outdoor rinse under the trees.
The outhouse is a short stroll away (headlamp recommended for the 2am trips).
Firewood for your fireplace is included; campfire wood is $20/bundle if you didn't bring your own.
Heads up: if bugs, dirt, or a lack of flush toilets make you nervous, this might not be your cabin and that's okay, we don't take it personally.
Wander Off 14 km of private, signed trails wind through 160 acres — download the free Avenza app for offline trail exploration, so you don't get lost in the woods. You likely won't see another soul out there, unless it's one of our other guests (each cabin sits 5–10 minutes apart, so privacy's built in).
For an extra $30, book your own private wood-fired sauna, firewood and robes included.
Getting Here & What's Nearby We're 5 hours from Vancouver or Calgary, 25 minutes from Salmon Arm and Enderby, with the final 11 km on a well-maintained forest service road (4WD recommended in winter).
Once you're here: Larch Hills Nordic Ski Area is 10 minutes away with groomed trails and rentals at John's Ski Shack; summer brings hiking and mountain biking connected to the South Canoe network.
Larch Hills Winery is 20 minutes down the road, and Farmer John's Market (May–October) is your spot for local produce and ice cream.
Well-behaved dogs welcome for $25/stay.

The wild rose cabin is a great place to visit family! Very private setting surrounded by beautiful walking trails. The sauna was a nice treat. 10/10 would definitely recommend!
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time at the cabin. It was very cozy. We felt very comfortable there. Great location to go to the lakes in the area or into Sicamous or even Vernon. The hiking trails in the area are great and we had a lot of fun. We we will have to come back in the fall to make use of the hot stove and fire pit ! Thanks for a great stay!
I booked the wild rose cabin to get away and disconnect in nature and it did not disappoint. Rustic but comfortable. Remote but still close by. My dog did not want to leave and i can’t wait to go back.

Cabin was clean Beds were comfortable Screen in porch was great The outdoors was not tended to and the outhouse stank and was outdated Wish I could post photos
Loved our stay here so much! It's the perfect glamping set up, with the sauna and walking paths just outside your door. There were many stink bugs in the cabin so it's more camping vibes than you may think but overall so so lovely. The propane fridge and oven made for easy meals and the fire place made for cosy nights!
The cabin is adorable and has all the necessities for a great visit. The instructions for the fire and lamps were beneficial and we could keep ourselves warm despite the -25 degrees Celcius weather. The location is stunning and we immensely enjoyed exploring the property and the great views.
We will definitely be visiting again.
This was everything I was hoping it would be. You have your own space, and we didn't see neighbours at all the whole time we were there. I went with a friend from Ontario and my two small dogs, the dogs loved the hikes and the cabin was amazing. I will be back for sure.
Get ready to unplug and enjoy some slow time. This property is a serious treat.
Tips:
Bring a knife for cooking
Bring candles - it's quite dark after the sun goes down

The perfect place to relax and unwind. Wonderful views, total privacy, a bed so comfortable it was hard to leave. The cabin is well appointed with the necessities. We stayed in and cooked dinner two nights, every utensil we needed was at hand. There was a small water leak problem, we were more concerned with the floor than any impact on us, he was over in a flash and had it fixed. Would definitely recommend.
Great points for: area. You are completely secluded in the wilderness, so lovely and peacful. Bed was great. Outhouse was really well kept and not stinky at all! Location is great! Love the 2 screened in patios, we made great use of them!
It was too hot for us to use the sauna.
Would recommend bringing a few extra things for the kitchen or pre prepping as the knife selection is not great, and the cups are very small.
Outdoor shower left something to be desired, ha we ended up just holding the bag off the deck for one another.
Lovely housecoats provided, towels etc.
Coffee pots too, big kettle to boil water was very handy!
Host was spectacular and accommodating.
Overall, would definitely stay again though.
My fiancé and I, along with our two shelties, spent three relaxing nights at the Wild Rose Cabin and thoroughly enjoyed our time there! We arrived during an extreme cold snap on December 21st but the wood stove kept the cabin super warm and cozy. We loved the spaciousness of the cabin, the artwork and vintage furnishings/decor, the comfortable king sized bed, the awesome sauna, and just being able to live simply, enjoying some quality time together, good food and drinks. The trails around the property were amazing to explore — we spent a good couple hours snowshoeing around with our dogs on day two, getting up high enough to take in some pretty nice vistas of the surrounding mountains. The only negative was that there were a number of beetles in the cabin (Western Conifer Seed Bugs) that seemed to come out in the evening when the cabin heated up. They were harmless, a nuisance more than anything, and very common to the area, we learned. Despite that, we would return in a heartbeat to this lovely cabin and property!
The Wild Rose cabin was a wonderful and cozy getaway for my partner and I. The wood-fire sauna was a perfect way to unwind at the end of the day, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The hosts were incredibly responsive with all of our questions/needs.
Loved the cabin and the trails on the property! We really enjoyed our stay. The only complaint we have is that we had to re wash a lot of the dishes before using them because they were dirty.
Quiet, isolated and perfect for people of the mindset of 'live simply'.
Fire was stoked and cabin was warm on my arrival. Very comfortable little cabin that has comfortable bed and warm duvet. Great view! Very close to Larch Hills XC ski area as advertised.
Very peaceful surroundings. Cabin was clean and very comfortable. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

A great escape into a
We loved our stay! This was just what we needed:
The cabin was great, it had everything we needed. It was quiet and peaceful in the mountains with beautiful views of the valley. It was something we would do again if we need to escape, relax and unwind in the mountains. We stayed for a week and we were able to break it up and go into town for dinner the odd time where you would find all amenities (only 10 mins coming down the mountain and 25 mins to the salmon arm where there is all amenities and lots to do).
