The resort&#8217;s futuristic tents and facilities feel like something from another era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Created by former SpaceX and Tesla employees, the resort draws inspiration from the pioneer homes at Upper Canada Village in Morrisburg, Ontario. Hammond Hill officially opened its doors in March 2021, as announced on its Instagram page. This eco-friendly initiative aligns with the #EcoExperience community, focusing on wellness and sustainable practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hammond Hill is Canada\u2019s first glamping experience combining wilderness retreats with innovative, environmentally conscious design. Spread across 25 hectares of forest, it features yurts, campsites, and mini-cabins available for year-round rental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, the resort donates 1% of its revenue to charitable organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ottawa.name\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2025\/01\/ad_4nxe4eaua67mmwm7f7vlyguqhwuumw_ilbgefokg9fgducj8siuamki_u6iphxl8eunxyxoc1z5vwgiswynokiexif2rykdodcli89yofuvubmxyj9psx3qpr2xjuilxv_vvrcwg31wkeya7yxszdsjvqufla0sv0f-ytd.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Must-See_Highlights_at_Hammond_Hill\"><\/span>Must-See Highlights at Hammond Hill<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Eco-Friendly Jupe Tent: Powered by solar energy and designed by former SpaceX and Tesla engineers, this is Canada\u2019s first overnight stay experience of its kind.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Licensed Beer Garden: Located near the Pioneer Cabin and yurts, it&#8217;s a perfect spot to unwind.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Volleyball Court: A great venue for active gatherings with friends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Address: 861 Du Golf Rd, approximately 40 minutes from downtown Ottawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ottawa.name\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2025\/01\/ad_4nxe8malyj3elowwsqcvbnaa-ixo6yuzpk6vwq8jmmarzz4laqfxmativxrdbcz-edbaot_qvxlj7zdkljrqh8a_azchcyritwdlhetrwweqgoh1k97gmj2ztrat-lg72qaiqywtllgkeya7yxszdsjvqufla0sv0f-ytd.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Activities_at_Hammond_Hill\"><\/span>Activities at Hammond Hill<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The resort regularly hosts events that attract visitors year-round, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Summer movie nights.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Group yoga sessions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Story Time walks with local guides sharing fascinating tales.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Educational tours for students to learn about nature and sustainability.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Live music and performances by guest musicians.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Haunted forests for Halloween, complete with spooky decorations to enhance the atmosphere.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Winter camping, snowmobile tours, and snowshoe races.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ottawa.name\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2025\/01\/ad_4nxfinrnfvsmzulgrzycjjzzrzgwvsc8lfqsuuspiwwqlf9hfjhnp4dckmpre9jhxxyjhitlxukfjgss649a_ugrxvac39ovc68oejct0fhcwcumsx-g_vjvnkvuae1gy-xczkhkqkeya7yxszdsjvqufla0sv0f-ytd.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Inside_the_Jupe_Tent\"><\/span>Inside the Jupe Tent<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Step into a Jupe tent, and you&#8217;ll immediately notice a spacious queen-sized bed with a headboard, nightstands, and stools on either side.
