Just an hour east of Toronto, this spectacular and stunning property is a wonderful delight for the senses! Inspired by the magical children’s book, The Wind in the Willows, this award-winning property will impress visitors, with lush and tropical gardens overlooking Lake Ontario, grounds surrounded by four beautifully engineered ponds and waterfalls.

In addition to your own private accommodation, guests have access to the grounds and their own private luxury amenities throughout the property.
The space
These Wind in the Willows themed sanctuaries, will be certain to elevate your stay, providing guests with full (and private) use of the following on the grounds (an acre waterfront lot):

• Mole End – a tri-level gem directly on Lake Ontario, equipped with an outdoor kitchen, BBQ, gazebo, and sun terrace on the upper level. Solar shower and guest room with television and wifi are located on the second level. Down below, a staircase leading to the shoreline is a lovely spot to sit and relax in your Muskoka chair while you look out onto the lake.

• New Moon – guests can enjoy a wonderful meal lakeside on the 28-foot brick arbour outdoor dining area. This charming spot is reminiscent of the shores of Italy, where you and your guests can dine underneath draped grapevines, surrounded by lake views.

• Portly’s – a private hot tub overlooking the lake and situated among the magical gardens within the property.

• Toad Castle – a true British stonemason’s creation, this brick oven masterpiece will delight the Smore baking enthusiasts, as this spot will remind guests of a London streetscape from long ago, complete with an old English-style streetlamp.
