WILD BY DESIGN
Design-led treehouse stays and immersive forest experiences in Ontario's Haliburton Highlands.
REDEFINING THE STAY
We believe the spaces we inhabit have the power to shape how we experience the world around us. At Fort, we bring together architecture, nature and thoughtful hospitality to deepen our connection to the wild, to one another and to ourselves.
Our Properties
Hårtwood
Three architectural treehouses, thoughtful hospitality and experiences that extend well beyond your stay. From good food and wine at The Hydda to quiet moments among the trees, Hårtwood brings together the freedom of the wild with the indulgence of a boutique hotel.

The Baltic
Our original off-grid treehouse, designed for two and tucked among the maples. Thoughtful design, a private wood-fired hot tub and the comforts of home create a place to slow down, disconnect from the everyday and enjoy the simple pleasure of having nowhere else to be.

THE FORT EXPERIENCE
WHERE LESS IS MORE
A place where doing less somehow feels like more. Where the hours lose their edges and the smallest details invite a second look. Hand-built architecture, uncompromising comfort and a little of the unexpected create a world that feels both wonderfully unfamiliar and entirely your own.
Beyond the architecture, an experience shaped as much by what you choose to do as what you leave undone. Good food, interesting wine, restorative rituals and the wild landscapes of the Highlands are all within reach. Local knowledge, personal arrangements and a genuine pleasure in sharing this place bring another layer to the stay. The itinerary, if there is one, is entirely yours.
