The Bunkie Co.

The Bunkie Co. is an East Gwillimbury, Ontario manufacturer of prefabricated backyard cabins designed for sleeping, working, or creative use. Their modular structures range from 97 to 198 square feet and are priced between $21,900 and $46,900 USD, featuring customisable cladding, flooring, glass wall panels, and gable or pitched roof configurations. Founded by designer Evan Bare, who applied furniture production methods to architectural-scale building, The Bunkie Co. manufactures all units in Southern Ontario and ships across North America. A key selling point is that most models require no building permits, making them an accessible alternative to traditional construction. The company provides installation guidance, contractor referrals, and flexible financing to support customers creating backyard retreats, home offices, and guest spaces.
