About this house rental
Welcome to a place where nature and comfort harmoniously coexist. Our home from home. Escape to our serene four-season retreat, ideal for the entire family. Our cozy farmhouse, nestled among the trees, offers tranquility and seclusion at the top of Beaver Valley. Just moments away from stunning valley vistas, year-round. Whether you seek adventure or relaxation, our property is the perfect destination for your next getaway.
The house is situated on a 2.4 acre lot that is backed by a local conservation area.
The open floor plan of the main level is surrounded by windows and great for entertaining and being together. On the main floor is the kitchen, dining room, a big washroom and two living rooms, one that we refer to as the “sunroom” and another we call the “snug” with a pellet stove and TV. The sunroom or the snug can also work as a fourth bedroom, with the option of a pullout sofa bed in one and a single sofa bed in the other. The second level has three minimalist bedrooms with double beds and a washroom.
The yard is an all season oasis, with barrel sauna, hot tub and cold plunge. Access to back yard conservation paths and in the summer the grounds have hammocks, and a sports field for guests to enjoy, outdoor furniture and a fire pit.
Guest access
This accommodation includes the entire house, with the exception of the locked storage area in the basement. The barn is off limits due to safety. Parking is available on site and comfortably fits three cars, additional cars can be parked in front of the barn. The property is gated and we ask guests to keep the gate open in winter months so the local farmer can plow the drive.
Other things to note
We are on septic and the water is from a well. We ask our guests to be mindful of flushing (seperate bins are provided for toilet paper and sanitary waste) and manage with reasonable water use.
The house is located in a rural community that feels secluded but with neighbouring properties, please be respectful.
To enter the main house guests will need to be able to walk up a small flight of stairs
In winter months a four wheel drive is recommended to access the property as the driveway is on a slope.
Snow removal is managed by the local farmer.
If you are coming for skiing there are several resorts near us. Beaver Valley Ski Resort (down hill) which is a 3 minute drive away and a members only club. Beaver Valley Nordic Trails Ski Resort (cross country, snowshoeing, snowmobiles and hiking) which is also a 3 minute drive and is open to the public and offers day passes to non members and Blue Mountain Ski Resort (down hill) which is a 27 minute drive away and open to the public.

We had 2 moms and 3 grown daughters for a weekend away. The house provided lots of amenities for us! And plenty of space! It’s in the country for even more privacy and the bedrooms were a lot more spacious than we thought as well. A great space for any group! We really enjoyed that we had several areas to choose from to enjoy during our stay. The house is certainly stocked comfortably that you shouldn’t need to take along much more than your basics.

This cozy cottage was indeed cozy but had plenty of room for us to spread out if we wanted. It was very clean which was important to us. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms looked recently renovated and were beautiful. There was an issue with the fridge but the owner was apologetic and is planning to purchase a new one. There are plenty of things to explore in the area but as we had a wedding to attend, we were not able to take full advantage of this.

Had a terrific weekend here, the house and property were perfect, plenty of courses nearby for golfing.

The location is very convenient if you plan to go up to Collingwood like we did. The host was very nice and responded promptly. The windows on the main level didn't have blinds or shutters so it does not feel as private at night time with the lights on. The washrooms are very clean, but due to the location, we found many earwigs, wasps, and larger spiders in most rooms. Would recommend staying here nonetheless!

Great spot to stay if planning on skiing at Beaver Valley Ski Club. Easy to find and close to various other areas of interest. Owner was great to answer any questions during our stay.

This property was a very nice place to spend a surprisingly snowy weekend. The kitchen was a great place to cook, and we really enjoyed the fireplace and view out the living room windows. The water pressure was on the low side, but otherwise all amenities were great. Nicole was great about communicating about what to expect, giving recommendations around the area, and making sure we could be in touch about getting the driveway plowed so we could get out after snowfall. Access to the Bruce trail is just a short walk away, and there's a nice outdoor yard space.
