Home w/ Fire Pit+ Big FENCED yard and Driveway!

Welcome to Norman by the River—your Nordic-inspired escape built for comfort and connection. Enjoy a full-body reset with the private 8-person SAÜNA, cool off in the DIY cold plunge deck (summer months only), and gather around the backyard firepit. With direct snowmobile trail access, a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed Wi-Fi, ample parking, and cozy shared spaces, it's the perfect retreat for work crews, families, or wellness-focused getaways.

The Space
Norman by the River is a bright and airy space filled with natural light. The main floor includes two bedrooms with queen beds, a cozy living area with a leather couch, cozy chairs, and a 45" smart TV, plus a full kitchen with dining area and dishwasher. The spacious entryway offers generous storage, and the bathroom features a large rainfall shower. Guests also have access to a separate laundry room and a quaint loft space via a staircase in the second bedroom.

Outdoors, enjoy your own Nordic-inspired retreat: a newly installed electric SAÜNA, a DIY cold plunge deck in the summer (or roll in the snow in the winter), and a firepit area for winding down under the stars. Just fill the plunge tub with the hose, grab a few bags of ice if you’re brave, and your cold therapy session is ready to go. Pour water on the sauna rocks and soak in the cedar steam—it’s the perfect way to reset after a day on the trails or a hard day’s work.

Located just 100m from the OFSC snowmobile trail and featuring a fully fenced backyard, this home is ideal for work crews, families and wellness seekers alike.

SNOW REMOVAL
A snow removal contractor has been hired for winter months (November - March). We ask that guests remove their vehicles from the driveway to allow the contractors to completely clear the driveway when they come by. If guests aren't able to move their vehicles/trailers, we ask that they park them closest to the backyard to allow the snow removal team to clear as much of the driveway as possible. We appreciate your cooperation!
