About this house rental

Welcome to Grandview! Our custom-built waterfront home nestled on the picturesque shores of Georgian Bay in Meaford, offering a luxurious retreat for families and groups seeking an unforgettable waterfront experience. Located in the heart of the rolling hills and apple orchards of Meaford, this home is a gateway to a variety of year-round activities and scenic wonders. The Beaver Valley, Blue Mountain ski hills, and the relaxing Scandinave Spa are all just a short 25-minute drive away.

The Space:
This spacious 4,000+ sqft cottage is a haven for relaxation and recreation. With beautiful vistas and easy access to a wide range of activities, it's the perfect getaway for all seasons. Here, you're just a short walk away from charming restaurants, boutique shops, private clubs, the Marina, and scenic parks.

Embrace the changing seasons with ease. In the winter, grab your snowshoes and cross-country skis for an adventure on the nearby Georgian Trail leading to Collingwood. This high-end waterfront home boasts numerous amenities and breathtaking views from the outside and inside.

The cottage features a lovely kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. Enjoy your morning coffee on the wrap-around deck with panoramic water views. The dining area provides the perfect setting for meals with a view. You’ll find cookware, bakeware, cutlery, utensils, and BBQ tools to use during your stay. All you need to bring is your food, spices, and coffee!

Living Spaces:
The main floor is home to the meticulously decorated great room, ideal for catching up after a day of adventure or relaxing by the fire as you unwind. It opens up to the wrap-around deck, offering water views or entertainment on the TV. Downstairs, the media room awaits with a sizable L-shaped couch, a large TV, and surround sound for your enjoyment.

Bedrooms:
On the main floor, you'll find a spacious, beautifully decorated bedroom with an in-suite TV, just steps away from a 4-piece bathroom. Upstairs, there are two additional bedrooms and two four-piece bathrooms, both with direct water views to wake up to. There is a third bedroom upstairs that has been adapted to a dedicated work from home space with large desk and chair and bright sun from the large windows overlooking the street. The primary bedroom boasts a balcony with a small patio, a 4-piece ensuite with a jetted soaker tub, and a gas fireplace. In the basement, we have two day beds near the games room which is ideal for children to enjoy in the day.

Outdoor Entertaining:
Outdoors, you can soak in the hot tub, take a refreshing dip in the lake, gather around the fire pit, or enjoy the large wrap-around deck with an outdoor seating area and BBQ - a perfect setup for entertaining your group.

Local Activities:
Explore the four-season activities Meaford has to offer, with a gorgeous harbour and a nearby boat launch. Sailing lessons are available for kids, just a 5-minute drive or an easy walk from the cottage. The cottage is conveniently located just 20 minutes from many of the private ski hills and only 25 minutes from Blue Mountain.

In Summer, enjoy swimming or sunbathing on the beautiful dock. In the evening, relax on the dock chairs and take in the gorgeous Georgian Bay sunsets. If you bring your kayaks or paddleboards, there is easy water access off the pebble beach or from the dock.

In the fall, indulge in hiking and biking adventures, or take a stroll on the Trout Hollow Trail minutes from the Cottage, offering scenic river views. Along the way, discover beautiful vistas, wineries, and cideries. For dining and leisure, you're only minutes away from restaurants, coffee shops, and waterfront parks, all within walking distance.

Other things to note:
*Please note that the dock and deck are high above the water, so use them with caution. It's recommended for young children or inexperienced swimmers to always wear a lifejacket and be supervised around the water. Guests should bring their own life jackets and towels.

*Please note when the hot tub is not in use, the cover must remain closed to avoid excessive evaporation/damage to the hot tub.

*We welcome small, well-trained, hypoallergenic dogs in the unit. Please inform us before booking.

*This home is situated in a quiet, residential neighbourhood, making it ideal for families, group retreats, and corporate getaways. We ask that you please keep the volume at a reasonable level, especially after 9 pm, especially if you have music playing outside :)

It would be nice to have more dish cloths and tea towels and washcloths. Also none of the bathroom fans seemed to work. Thur. afternoon they came to mow the lawn so we had to move all our stuff...take our badminton net down. We thought they could have come on the Friday when we left. Hopefully you respond to me on this as it is just a few hints that would make other stay better.

This is a lovely, big house situated close to the water. The views are magnificent and there are many great bedrooms. The house is an ample size with many features both upstairs and downstairs. The kitchen is modern with a wide variety of supplies. You are only given one set of towels per person and so I would recommend extra towels, especially for the hot tub or beach. The neighborhood was quiet and we had a delightful time.

We had a family trip here and we’re excited to get away and have a change of scenery. It was four adults and two children (under 6). A few of us had to work through the week and when we showed up we were only informed the day of that there was no internet or cable from a incident the week prior. Immediately this left a bad impression. We went from Sunday-Thursday with no internet/wifi so that was one issue. The neighbour directly beside the unit is awful - we had noise complaints and cops call on us at 7pm and 6:30pm (the 6:30pm call was also on a Saturday). The music was not loud - we could hardly hear at the dock. The other neighbour which is a bit more spaced out from us never had an issue or problem, or anyone else around for that matter. We have young boys who were out playing and a mix of that and our music they did not like the fact we were disturbing their quiet. Although they tried to ruin our holidays property management granted us a complimentary night which was appreciated. Needless to say, if you have young kids and are looking to play music at of any sort outside beware you likely will get called on from your unpleasant neighbour.

We had such an amazing vacation and can't thank Dave and his team enough. From one of the best vantage points of Georgian Bay that we have ever experienced to the short walk to amazing restaurants in downtown Meaford, this property is simply magical. We can't wait to stay here again in the future. Thank you once again for such a memorable time.
