The Hermitage is a rustic, two-story log house situated on a hilltop overlooking Shekinah property and the North Saskatchewan River valley. For those seeking a pioneer experience, the Hermitage has no amenities. Dishes and utensils are provided and cooking is done on an old-fashioned woodburning stove. Wash water must be carried outside. Gas and kerosene lanterns provide light in the evenings and an air-tight woodburning stove is used for heating. Hermitage guests use nearby outdoor toilet. The Hermitage sleeps 15 people.
