We spent a long weekend here at the end of February celebrating our son’s birthday. It was the perfect spot for a cozy winter getaway playing games together, curling up in front of movies and seeing the stars at night. Carolyn has done a beautiful job making this space warm and inviting and is a very responsive host for any questions you may have. Thanks for a great stay!

Just returned from a fabulous stay at this lovely cottage. I have never rented a cottage before and was worried about the check-in process, but Carolyn made the process soooo easy. The pictures of the interior of the cottage did not lie, it was very nice and clean. Our dogs really enjoyed the surrounding property, especially the little creek/stream behing the cottage. Even though we did not get to enjoy sitting outside as it was too cold, it was nice at night to see the solar lights around the firepit. Overall, a wonderful trip!

This was such a wonderful place to stay! Very clean, cozy, and private. Everything was provided and then some. Our host was very responsive and even offered tips for local activities occuring. To have our dog join us on the trip was just amazing and we all had a fabulous trip. Would love to stay here again on our next trip up!

This cottage is perfect for a Bruce Peninsula National Park getaway. It's away from the main thoroughfare and is so cozy and comfortable. We loved it so much that we extended our stay by a night and booked a return trip before we had even left.

My dog and I stayed here for a couple nights and within being there for a few hours I have booked us in again for a longer stay. Very clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. Close to the dog park and downtown Tobermory. Can’t wait to go back

Family hiking trip

This house was exactly as I expected with a little more. The photos don't do the property justice. There are so many cozy seating areas outside. We had plenty of towels and extra cozy blankets for watching a movie after hiking all day. There is a little fisher price slide and swing set we didn't expect that my son loved. There are lights around the fire pit with lots of chairs and fire sticks for s'mores or hot dogs. We saw a bear in the road and heard coyotes super close so keep your dogs on a leash! With that said, my dog loved this home as much as us with many outdoor spaces to sniff and explore. The nearby hikes and beaches and even restaurant patios are mostly all dog friendly. Just down the road is access to the water via sunset point that I highly recommend!
