Berners Bay Cabin

The cabin is a 13’ x 14’ Pan Abode style cabin with large deck located on a saltwater beach. One double bunk and three single bunks provide sleeping for 5. There is a table between the bunks and a counter at the front of the cabin. Cabin heat is provided by an oil stove (burns #1 stove oil, NOT supplied). Other items supplied include: food cupboard and shelves, broom and dustpan, cooler, shovel and bucket, rake, outhouse, and a mooring buoy. Water is available from a nearby stream. Treat all water before using. Cabin users should bring #1 stove oil, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, cooking stove, lantern, pots, pans, plates, utensils, food, toilet paper, garbage bags, fire extinguisher and fire starter. It’s a good idea to bring your own water. Fuel consumption is approximately 1 gallon per day with the stove on low setting (sufficient for 8 hours of heating with an outside temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit).
