Weekend in Bancroft
Beautiful property with lots of trees and fresh air. Beds were comfortable and lots of indoor space to relax. Clean and well kept property. Lots to do and see in the area. Would definitely recommend for an escape from the city.

The property was great! It was large enough for a family of 4, it was only 15 minutes from Bancroft, 10 minutes from a fantastic beach and Deb was very attentive to our needs.

Staying at Birch Haven
The property is set back away from the road and opens up to reveal the place you will be staying. It is quiet and serene. A short drive to Papineau beach or Bancroft to get supplies. Debora is a wonderful host who is sure to make your stay comfortable and has a number of resources to help you find the activities to take part in around Bancroft. The place is very nice, clean and quiet. Would definitely recommend.
