The couple behind Alberta’s Refuge Bay retreat commission a compact getaway designed to stay cozy even when the mercury hits -40 degrees.
When Lindsey Litke and Chris Russell asked Kevin and Heather of Fritz Tiny Homes to create a custom off-grid getaway on wheels for their Refuge Bay glamping resort in Alberta, Canada, they insisted the dwelling have as many windows as possible. "We wanted our guests to feel nature no matter the season, and to be able to take in all the wildlife, seasonal changes, and growth cycles—for them not to miss a moment," says Lindsey.
Refuge Bay is set on 640 acres of land, where black and white poplar, birch, tamarack, and pine trees tower above vibrant wildflowers, a 167-acre wetland with a lake, and wild strawberry, raspberry, and saskatoon bushes. "Chris and I purchased the land from my parents, who’ve farmed it for more than 50 years," says Lindsey. "We wanted to provide for my parents’ retirement and keep the generational land in the family."
