Who are We?
Welcome to Cypress Sleeper Barrels, a unique camping experience created by the Carr sisters, Lisa and Tara. Located on the beachfront sandy shores of Nipigon Bay in Gurney, ON, just 1 hour and 45 minutes east of Thunder Bay, Cypress Sleeper Barrels offers an extraordinary getaway that combines comfort, nature, and relaxation.
In 2022, Lisa and Tara, along with their family and friends, designed and built Cypress Sleeper Barrels.
These distinctive barrels provide an immersive camping experience, allowing you to wake up to stunning water views through the bubble window.
Accommodations at Cypress Sleeper Barrels include two barrels—Forest and Wilen—each designed for a unique experience.
Begin your day by preparing breakfast in the fully equipped outdoor BBQ kitchen and savouring it in the covered, netted outdoor gazebo living room with a propane fire pit for any weather.
All of us have been there when packing for a camping trip. No matter how long your trip is, you need to pack the same supplies.
All that can be handled by us! The only things you need to bring are yourself, your personal belongings, food, beverages, and maybe a loved one.
Live in the moment, relax, and connect with yourself. Take a trip to a special place and immerse yourself in all its elements. Get out and explore the great outdoors, breath in the fresh air, sit around a roaring fire, and take a dip in the lake. Cypress Sleeper Barrels can provide you with a truly unique camping experience.
Barrels
-
Forest Barrel
It is named the Forest Barrel because the area is more closed into the forest. Providing lots of shade for a cooler stay.
-
Wilen Barrel
This area is referred to as the Wilen Barrel because of the mural painted on the canvas cover from Thunder Bay artist Vik Wilen. This area is more open, providing lots of sunshine for a warmer stay.
