The Bunkies

The rooms were absolutely spotless and it was really cool to see everything organized in such a small place. The bed was very comfortable and the location was great. The only thing that bummed me out was a little dishonesty during booking. I called on Saturday asking if they had a one-day option available because I know that anything around starved Rock usually requires a two-day booking on a weekend, which makes sense on a business platform. They said they only had one of these cabins left and I was charged almost $300 for one night in this mini cabin. I didn't mind paying it but I told them I had a party of two and they lied to me and said that the three bed cabin was the only one available. We were there from 3:00 p.m. until 11:00 the next morning and there was not one single mini cabin

Cute and modern cabin located near Ottawa downtown (8min drive) and state parks (15 min drive). The room has many nice features like kitchenette w cookware & dishes and a 2nd floor area w sky light and hammock bed. They also nice little entertainment around the room like a record player and card games in addition to a new flat screen tv. There were more amenities in the neighborhood to explore like a bonfire, pool, etc but didn't try during our stay. Some elements that were disappointing were an odor that was kinda like a wet dog smell (we used our car's air frenshner to try and cover the smell) and a deceng number of bugs got in (mostly lady bugs but a few beetles). Overall, it was still a pleasant time and a nice weekend getaway option from Chciago (suggest Heritage Harbor address some

I have stayed twice at the Bunkies and had a wonderful experience both times. Even though the home has a small footprint, there is plenty of space with the king bed, fully equipped kitchen (cooktop, microwave, and dishwasher), as well as a very large bathroom with rain fall shower head. The laundry unit was a nice feature too. I also love the loft space, with a huge skylight and rope hammock. The real magic is at night, the space is incredibly relaxing with all of the built in mood lighting, star gazing through the skylight, and music from the provided record player and vintage records. With the group of 5 Bunkies clustered in the corner of the Heritage Harbor resort, my next visit will include friends and family to use all of them together.

My wife and I stayed 3 nights at "Old Salt" in December to do some winter hiking at the nearby state parks. This was our first stay at The Bunkies and overall, we enjoyed the new experience to stay at a rental cabin versus a hotel room. Some positive highlights: + Our own private little cabin with kitchenette + Quiet area of Ottawa + Appreciated the furnishings and amenities inside the cabin, although we didn't use the dishwasher, stove, or laundry. + Roku TV to allow us to watch out own streaming services + Very fast WiFi service + 4 coffee K-cups and some packets of dried cream and sugar were provided, but we didn't notice them until Day 2 since they were in a brown bag from Operations which we hadn't opened. Perhaps, they are out in the open near the Keurig machine for better visibilit

A wonderful place for a couples getaway! Also a great spot for friends to go and each have their own bunkie to stay in. The bunkie had everything we could need, including games to play and a the most comfortable bed. We were able to rent a pontoon boat during the day for an beautiful day in the sun. The walkable marina with live music at night made for a fantastic evening experience! And the campfire right out front was fabulous for roasting s’mores and chatting with other bunkie guests. Would highly recommend staying here!
