Very nice basement appartment all to yourself, cosy living room, big washroom and bedroom all included in the price. The place is really clean too. Pets are cute. It's a great stopover from Toronto to Tobermory if you don't want to drive the whole way.

The stay at Nicola's was wonderful ... I highly recommend this place to stay if you like a quite, clean and modern stay. We were on our way to Bruce Peninsula Park and all accommodation above Durham was sold out. As we were coming from Hamilton this was an awesome stopover for our trip. When we entered, we arrived in a very beautiful house. It also very recently build. We could use the kitchen, washroom, tv and WIFI. I highly recommend this place to stay!

Everything was perfect :) we spend one night in Durham for a journey through! Very nice hosts!

Nicola's place is wonderful. The room is quiet and comfortable, perfect after a long day of traveling.

We enjoyed our stay very much, and we would stay here again. Nicola and her husband are very nice and welcoming and they made us feel right at home. The place was very clean and beautifully decorated. A perfect place to stay.

Great place, great hosts, perfect for our one night stop on the way to the Bruce Peninsula!

Very friendly and welcome hosts! House is spotless!

the place was a little hard to find. was welcomed at the door by a beautiful cat and a pug. bill welcomed us and showed us the amenities: shared kitchen, nice private big bathroom, shared living room and smallish but nice bedroom with tv and storage. the price was good for the room. The bed was a little small for me, as im 6ft and my legs were a little over the edge of the bed. we woke up and were offered coffee or tea and we made our breakfast as well as our lunch. This is a great pitstop to tobermory from toronto if you dont want to drive the whole distance in one day

Our stay at Abbeyfield was wonderful. The facility was lovely and very clean. Tania, Rosie, Fred and Rhonda were the perfect hosts and made sure we were comfortable. We especially enjoyed meeting a couple of the charming residents. We would highly recommend Abbeyfield and would definitely stay there again. Maureen and John

Abbeyfield House is a great place to stay. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It was a pleasure to get to know the residents. We felt welcomed, safe and the premises are super clean. Will definitely be back.

Everything was perfect, a very warm welcome and farewell !

Loved my stay! Wonderful people and wonderful rom

Great place, quiet. Very friendly and hospitable.

Very clean and spacious room in Durham. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. Bed was clean and really comfortable. Would recommend!!!

Lovely facilities, welcoming residents and staff. I had such a wonderful stay!

Peaceful place

Our stay at Elizabeth's place was lovely. She was there to greet us when we arrived, and had the table and patio set up for the number of people we had. She left a delicious loaf of homemade bread and jams, as well as all other breakfast foods we could possibly need. There were various hiking trails on the property as well as a pond, which made for a lot of great time spent outdoors. Elizabeth was easy to reach, flexible, and very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

The location is spectacular. The home is immaculate and this is a perfect destination if you wanna unwind and get away from the daily hustle bustle. Our host, Elizabeth was very helpful and accommodating. Would definitely come back again!

We had a wonderful time at Elizabeth's lovely place. The setting is very private - beautiful trees, lots of nature - but is also 2 km from a small town that offers everything you might need. Cell phone service was excellent and the place is now set up with Internet. It was very roomy and nicely decorated. We loved the wood burning fireplace - relaxing and cozy. One of the highlights was the kitchen - it is well stocked and Elizabeth provided everything that you would need for breakfast including eggs, homemade bread and granola, fruit, milk and juice. Bedding was lovely (what a comfy bed) and there were lots of towels. Elizabeth was a great host - checked us in and was available if we needed her. She made us feel very welcome and it was a pleasure meeting her. We plan to be back!

Marvellous host! Woodlot trails, cottage and food were far above what I expected. THANK YOU SO MUCH

It was the perfect place for what we were looking for. We were attending a wedding nearby and it was a lovely place for our group to stay, with enough beds and bathrooms at a great price. Elizabeth was helpful before the trip, greeted us upon arrival, had the fridge stocked with food for breakfast and was extremely pleasant. Wished we had more time there to enjoy the outside space and explore her beautiful property!

Elizabeth was helpful in finding things to do for our family near the cottage. The house was well stocked with everything we needed as well as very clean. We really enjoyed fishing in her pond and sitting by the fire. There was plenty of room for our family of six, and it was safe for our 1 yr-old with the gate provided. We would love to return again!

We stayed at Elizabeth's cottage at the end of February 2017... although there was almost no snow left we loved the forest trails and the location of the cottage. Elizabeth kindly arranged a tour at a Mennonite farm for us where we tasted different kind of Maple syrups, petted ponies (!!!) and went on a buggy ride! She also recommended an amazing Mennonite restaurant for dinner nearby - Pebbles (which exceeded our expectations!). The cottage was very cozy...we enjoyed the real wood fire place in the living room (don't see them often in Toronto nowadays:)! Elizabeth was very responsive and very helpful. We are definitely coming back! Cheers, Olga, Gary, Marina and Sasha

What an amazing beautiful escape into the woods! Our group of 10 friends highly enjoyed our stay with Elizabeth. She was incredibly hospitable, the space was very clean - and spacious enough to fit 5 couples, while also feeling cozy and warm. So close to some fantastic snowshoeing trails. After spending time outside, we could warm up by the roaring fire (which came stocked with plenty of firewood!). We would highly recommend staying with Elizabeth. We also loved the added details of fresh fruit, granola and jam. Muchly appreciated! Thanks again Elizabeth!

My boyfriend and I had a great stay in the bunkie. It was clean and comfortable and Jennifer warmly welcomed us. We loved waking up to the sounds of cows and birds and the view from the hill made the sunsets and sunrises extra beautiful. We loved using the barbecue and the fire pit and drove all around the area, doing a canoe trip down the Saugeen River, swam at Port Elgin beach, ate at the bakery in Paisley, and drank beers at the brewery in Neustadt. We had a great stay!

Exceeded expectations, this is more than a cabin. It's very finished and offers an ideal rural escape.

We wanted a quiet vacation from city life and we found it. The bunkie was fabulous; it was clean and had all of the amenities. Jennifer was available to answer questions anytime. We felt extremely welcome. I would definitely recommend this bunkie!

Our stay at Jennifer and Jay's was really nice! The bunkie is very comfortable and private with beautiful country scenery. The fire pit outside is a huge plus and was really nice for the evenings, there are also board games which we really enjoyed! Jennifer and Jay are lovely hosts, I would recommend staying at their bunkie :) Thanks guys!

We had an excellent time enjoying the privacy and warmth of the bunkie, it was a perfect place to spend an evening playing the provided board games and cozying up against the cold weather! Jennifer was a very accommodating host, and the 'perks' like the smores, firewood, and board games were much appreciated.

We had a very nice quiet time. We very much enjoyed our stay. The cabin was lovely and Jennifer was a wonderful host. We will go back again.

The Bunkie is very neat, tidy, and cozy. Jennifer was friendly and helpful!

I had a great time at the bunkie. It was peaceful and relaxing with a quaint town nearby. Jennifer and Jay were great hosts.

This was the most unique, charming, naturally beautiful and peaceful getaway we have ever experienced. Can't wait to return already!

Our family of 4 had a great time, our kids (7&3) were blown away. It's a very inspiring holiday. Lots of great new memories, but some of my favourite moments were watching the kids at night wander from the treehouse to the pool on their own, marvelling at what was a really enchanting getaway. Thanks to Brett and Michael and Lynne and everyone there for a memorable stay, we look forward to coming back next year.

My husband and I had a wonderfully relaxing time at the treehouse. It is indeed beautiful, chic, clean and private. We loved relaxing by the fire, cozying up with a good book in the trees, hiking, and making wonderful meals in the outdoor kitchen. Michael and Lynn were wonderful hosts. We would recommend visiting the treehouse to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind getaway.

Amazing experience in an amazing place. Lynne and her family could not be better hosts and tree house and cabin are truly magical. We will be back!

Lynne and Michael were great hosts that were outgoing, generous and saw to every small detail. It was really interesting to hear about the history of their treehouse and the surrounding land, as well as their stories from travels past! The listing was quite accurate, and the neighbourhood was definitely part of the quiet and relaxing countryside of Ontario.

I selfishly don't want to say just how perfect this spot is because I know it's only going to get harder and harder to reserve some time there once the word gets out. This place is everything I hoped for and more. Whatever romantic notion you have of living in a magical forest in a home seemingly floating in the trees, this place will actually live up to your imagination. You get all the beauty of nature with all the comfort of a spa resort. The bed was so cozy, the main floor and the balcony was probably the most perfect place I've ever found for a morning coffee, and the bathroom / spa house was dreamy. All this is just a part of your experience - there is an expansive series of private trails for a morning jog / hike / flower pick, and a gorgeous pool / outdoor kitchen sitting area. We had a fire there both nights and a bunch of perfect moments. One of the nicest spots I've ever been in my life, no hyperbole.

If you're thinking of getting away from the city for a few days there's absolutely no place better than the treehouse. My girlfriend and I booked a last second weekend trip and just by chance a few nights opened up. We couldn't have been luckier. The treehouse was a perfect mix of a rustic cabin and a 5 star resort. The cabin was warmed by a fire when we arrived and the whole scene (from the patio lights hanging from tree to tree, to the fireplace by the outdoor pool) felt like we were in an episode of The Bachelor. Just perfect. Thanks to Lynne and Michael for the unforgettable weekend. Staying here was truly a one-of-a-kind experience.

Let me start off by... this place is one in a million - a charming and magical hidden gem near home! It was more than what we imagined and the pictures just don't do justice. Details, details, details... Impeccable and so mind boggling how creative this space has become if you look at the "before" photograph. I'm so happy that I found a place like this. My boyfriend and I were contemplating whether to reveal this amazing space with our close friends because we wanted this special secret to ourselves, hahaha! We decided to share the awesomeness anyway. Lynne, Michael, the kids, and of course the cats were welcoming, super friendly and made our stay extra comfortable as if we were right at home. We can't wait to come back and see what's new! ;) We absolutely adored our experience here and highly recommend anyone who wants to relive childhood memories or those who never got a chance to play in a tree house - a must see!!

We loved our stay here! We used the house for a weekend away and enjoyed spending our morning coffee and evenings on the dock. We took turns using the kayak and the paddleboat. We walked to the falls and conservation area daily. We ate a couple of meals on the deck outside and when it rained on Saturday we took advantage of the dining room. Downstairs was a game room with air hockey, shuffleboard, and foosball! We didn't get a chance to shoot hoops in the backyard, but I loved that it was there for us. The yard was big enough to play catch before settling in for a fire at night! The house is in a great location. You can walk into town, walk to the conservation area, and walk to the tennis courts. With 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms there is plenty of space for a family. We have already discussed making this an annual trip in the summer, but I would love to return in the fall when the leaves are changing colours. The views from the dock would be spectacular!

It has been a great experience right from the day of booking the property until we checked out. Both Carrie and Dan have been very responsive to all our queries before and during the trip. Carrie was kind enough to show us around this beautiful home and was just a msg away for anything we needed. Extremely kind and helpful. The house itself is located by a beautiful lake, with one of the most scenic views ever. Grand furnishing and with all amenities better than any hotel could provide. We enjoyed every bit of our stay there. The house is big enough to accommodate 6 adults. We had two toddlers as well and they had had great fun. restaurants, convenience stores, lcbo are all at walkable distance. Great spot for a family vacation. Just sit back and enjoy this serene environment! Certainly one of the best and value for your money! Thanks Carrie and Dan!

Our family had a wonderful time at this great property. The location and house were amazing. The kids had a wonderful time in and on the water. Dan was great to communicate with us and ensure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property to anyone I know.

This was such a wonderful place for young children and dog friendly. The shallow sandy beach is perfect for little ones to sit and splash and play in the sand. The older children can swim and use the boats. The river around the house is wide and calm, more like a pond than a river because of two dams on either side. The boat dock is too shallow for jumping and diving, but it is just a short walk to the public beach which has a perfect dock for jumping and diving. The house is a comfortable happy place and again so much care put in to make it child friendly with lots of games, toys and DVDs for all ages to enjoy. The kitchen and BBQ setups were great and the kids just loved the fire pit. The marshmallow skewers were ready and waiting as well as two big bags of marshmallows. We were really interested in tubing the river, which you can do just a 10-minute drive away. Apparently you can get inflatables at Walmart for $10 though probably the tubes we rented from the local RV park (Saugeen Springs Park), though far more expensive, were much safer. The main issue with tubing locally is the RV park does have a shuttle so walking back to the car was a pain (about a mile or 20 min walk for the short run and we were told a 40 min walk for the long run). Two cars are ideal for tubing or else perhaps better to drive an hour to Elora Gorge. The local tubing short run was perfect for the attention span of our young ones. Bring river shoes or sneakers not crocks or flip flops. At least one person needs good shoes to get the car. Not a walk you want to do barefoot. We opted to go to Pebbles Mennonite buffet for one dinner. It is only a mile away and full or hearty family friendly foods and yummy pie and fudge. We enjoyed the experience. We leave Heron's Nest with happy memories, it is exactly what we were looking for.

Carrie & Dan are fantastic hosts! The place is even better than the pictures and offers so many activities that we couldn't do them all in one weekend. Carrie & Dan put in a great effort to make us feel welcome and comfortable and were always a phone call away if we needed anything. The house was very clean and had everything we needed to make cooking easy and our sleeps comfortable, we just needed to bring the food and drinks. We were pleasantly surprised that there was a BBQ as it was not mentioned in their ad. The property is big and the back yard is stunning, half of our group played Bocci ball (provided by them) while the other half was throwing around a football and we still had room for other activities. The house offers everything that you see in the pictures and then some. The river was always calm and felt more like a lake due to its size. The water was very clean and it was easy to take the canoe up to the picturesque dam or to go swimming. We were fortunate to have great weather so we spent most of the day outside but the living room faces the water and you always have a stunning view even if you are inside. The Town is so charming and the people are very nice, I recommend taking a walk. Overall we were very pleased with everything and would definitely visit again. Thanks again Carrie & Dan, you were amazing!

Heron’s Perch deserves every one of the five star reviews that it has received. We had a terrific stay and would go back in a heartbeat! We highly recommend this beautiful home and the super responsive hosts. This warm and welcoming home has everything you could ask for – and much more. It is located in an idyllic setting on the serene and picturesque Saugeen river. The home is lovingly furnished with a beautiful view of the river from the living room, deck and backyard. It has lots of activities/games to keep you busy - not that you’ll have much time! A short walk takes you to McGowan falls and the nearby conservation area. Stand on the bridge above the falls and treat yourself to an absolutely stunning view of the Saugeen River or enjoy roasting marshmallows in the fire pit at nights There’s lots to do in the area – tubing, tennis, nature walks. The home is also a perfect base from which to visit the lovely towns and beaches of Port Elgin and Southampton. My husband and I visited with our two daughters (15 and 21) and our Golden Retriever and we all absolutely loved it. Dan was a great host. He responded promptly to all queries, greeted us upon arrival and was available for any questions that we had. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. We look forward to visiting again!

Beautiful place to stay for a relaxing getaway. Dan was very helpful and made us feel right at home. Thanks again!

We were a family of five adults looking to get away for the weekend. This place fit the bill perfectly allowing us to also bring our dog. Dan was very welcoming upon our arrival and gave us a tour of the property and home. The property is big/spacious and peaceful with lots of green space for games and equipped with absolutely everything we needed to enjoy both relaxing and being active. The home is clean and comfortable with a ton of amenities including wifi and satellite tv if you happen to have rainy days. Tons of awesome games too! Dan provided firewood for our nightly fires and we loved every minute. You can walk into town to get ice cream or pick up anything you forgot at the Foodland down the street. Also there is a Tim Hortons which was convenient. Beds were comfortable and big. Booking and cancellation policies are excellent allowIng for last minute changes. Was also pleased that we didn't have to book an entire week at a time. We recommend Dan and Carrie's place and will definitely return next year.

This place was super cool. The gallery was neat to stay next to, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Loved the feeling of being there. We used it as our half way point on our way to Bruce peninsula which was a 2 hour drive away and well worth it. Communication was great too

What an amazing space Jenny and Steve have! Spacious, comfortable, funky and unique. The town of Durham is a great place to explore too! Would definitely recommend a stay here!

Place was great for the money, very funky and spacious. Kinda like having a hostel to yourself all at a great price. Steve and Jenny were great.

Jenny & Steve's place is such a cozy, eclectic and fun place to stay if you're in the Grey County area. Would definitely stay again if I was in the area.

This was a beautiful spot! Very quiet, with a beautiful river right in the backyard. The space itself was full of art, little knick knacks and an extremely comfortable bed (we slept like babies). Jenny was very communicative, helpful and friendly. We would definitely come back again in the future.

A great first experience with Airbnb. We had a friendly and welcoming greeting and departure. It was private; we had the space (bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and sitting space) to ourselves. Although we didn't spend much time with our hosts (we were out and about all day for a wedding) we got a glimpse into either/or both their personality and style in this super cool art filled & inspired space. We also learn Durham's a pretty cool town! Of course Steve was able to tell us all about it and give excellent recommendations.

My stay at Jenny and Steve's was just wonderful, I enjoyed it immensely. To start, I was kind of in a bind and needed a place to stay on short notice. Jenny and Steve were so accommodating and very kind to let me stay at their oasis even though they were going out of town for the holidays. The place was so private yet fun. On my last night my sister joined me and found it to be a gem. She commented that she would like to book the room sometime in the future when visiting family. It was a relief to stay in the area close to family yet gave me my privacy. This place is definitely a place to stay if you are in the area. Laurie

Steve and Jenny are very friendly hosts! They were so accommodating to my particular situation (needing a place to stay while work was done to my house). One of my favourite parts of this particular stay is the proximity to the McGowan Falls and beautiful walking trails along the Saugeen River! What a neat place to stay!

Better than advertised!! Wonderful hosts. Beautiful location. Bedroom and bath fantastic! Highly recommend.

Unforgettable night in a country side. very clean, spacious, well decorated space. One of the best BnB we have ever stayed. Fresh and great breakfast in the morning. She always welcomed us and very nice host.

The location is very close to Markdale ON. Hosts are very friendly and welcoming. Lovely grounds, country setting.

We stayed for one night.The place is quiet.Inside the forest.Fresh (URL HIDDEN) and pond.The house nice and clean.The host Rb was very friendly.We did not have any problem to stay there.

The host was friendly, and accomodating. The living accomodations were clean, cosy, and comfortable. Lovely scenic location with pond, marsh and forest. Conveniently located close to Hanover.

Great place and very welcoming. Would recommend.

We booked at the last minute and we were expecting what you get for a very affordable place at the last minute. We got way more. Rb is a gracious host. The accommodations were clean, tidy and very comfortable. The best part was the setting. Nestled in a clearing surrounded by woods and boasting a pond and running water. Clean air, quiet and peaceful, and no Internet for an actual escape. I never powered on the laptop once. I would go back for a longer stay.

A wonderful place and a gracious host - i look forward to my next visit

I would highly recommend staying at Turtle Crossing if you enjoy the beauty of Nature, Peace and quiet and very comfortable and spacious accommodations ...Ruth was the perfect Hostess and made us feel right at home....I especially enjoyed sitting by the beautiful pond listening to the birds and watching the wildlife...

RB was very welcoming. The property was beautiful and the location was perfect.

nice place

Abbeyfield was very accommodating for the very odd hours we were using the room. We really enjoyed the residents and appreciated how nice everyone was.

This place is very clean, quiet and a great place to relax....the breakfast is great too!

Great place, had a lovely time

Really friendly staff and residents!

Abbeyfield is a clean, economical place to stay. The rooms are nicely appointed and cozy. We have booked there twice in 2017 and look forward to the next time we have a family function in the region. The staff are experienced and friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable weekend. We were travelling and they generously let us store our cooler full of food in the boardroom fridge. We enjoyed meeting the residents and had lively conversations over breakfast. We highly recommend Abbeyfield.

My wife and I spent 1 night here and had no problem finding the place. The room is clean, and we had a great sleep. The people here are very helpful and friendly. We had a nice breakfast before leaving. Will stay here again if were in the area again.

We really enjoyed the place and people.

The room was perfect and the host were terrific

Picturesque, peaceful and clean. We had a great time. The pond was really nice - the water was cool and clear and there was even a windmill aeration system. We had lots of fun floating on our inflatable raft and swimming. It was so nice just to sit and relax in the comfy Muskoka chairs and watch the birds and chipmunks. The farmhouse itself is also charming, with a large, updated kitchen perfect for preparing big family meals.

Heathers place was perfect for the six of us! We stayed there for my nephews wedding and it couldn't have been more perfect! We loved the beautiful kitchen and family room so much and spent most of our time there after the ceremony. The kitchen is outstanding (although with the wedding we didn't really cook). We enjoyed breakfast and coffee there. It was horrible weather and the cosy wood stove was amazing to relax and take away the dampness. Loooved Heathers place and would highly recommend it!!! Thank you for everything!

What can i say about this beautiful place that would do it justice? It is one of the most beautiful, happy, positive feeling places I have been, and I cannot wait for our next visit, as we are planning to make this a yearly vacation away to recharge and refresh. If you have dogs that like to swim and explore, The Ridge is like a wonderland for them. The view is amazing and there is so much room to spread out. Heather is wonderful and made us feel so welcome, even though we never actually met. We also met a lovely neighbour and invited her to spend some time with us, which thankfully she accepted. All of this made for a wonderful, relaxing vacation. I could honestly go on & on! Thank you so much Heather!

We had a great time relaxing! This environment is stress releasing. Lots of sleep options to allow for space if going with couples. Loved the pond-cold and a great spot to swim!!

The host canceled this reservation 132 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

What an incredible place!! The picture's don't do it justice. Cooked a fantastic meal in the huge modern kitchen. Long hikes in the well marked trails in the woods nearby. The stars at night by the fire-pit were unbelievable. Make sure to get outside to watch the moon rise over the hills at night. Too bad it was too cold to swim in the pond..only the dog was brave enough to go in! This place is perfect for a weekend away for a couple, or for the whole family. Couldn't ask for a better host than Heather.

Susan and Kevin's place was absolutely fabulous. We felt spoiled rotten by all the special and thoughtful touches throughout the place. These folks bend over backwards and do somersaults :-) to make sure your stay is a pleasant one! A 10/10 and two thumbs all the way up for this listing. Comfy bed, super clean, beautifully picturesque, and incredibly friendly hosts. What more could anyone ask for?!

The Dragonfly Hollow was more than we could've imagined. Sue and Kevin not only offered kindness and hospitality, but they offered a "home away from home" type atmosphere. The kitchen was stocked with local spreads and bagels. We really appreciated the treats! So much privacy!Thanks so much Kevin and Sue for helping us get a super relaxing escape from the city. We will be recommending your place to Everyone we know and we'll be back too! Rafi and Sonia

Susan and Kevin's place was a fantastic retreat in the Canadian wilderness and a welcome rest from the hustle and bustle of Montreal and Toronto. Their place is wonderfully secluded and is elegantly laid out. As fairly well-experienced AirBnb'ers, I think we would both say that we have never had a better welcome than the one that Sue gave us on the first day - she had left lots of individual touches and a delicious welcoming hamper for us when we arrived. Indeed, our hosts were responsive, conscientious and helpful prior, during and after our stay, and made our brief stay a thoroughly enjoyable one. Our only regret was that we had only booked to stay for one night - I would recommend a longer stay if visitors are able to; it is a fantastic starting point to explore the waterfalls, lakes and countryside around this area of Canada. We hope to return soon!

Had a great time here at Dragonfly Hollow! Susan and Kevin give a lot of attention to detail in preparing the house. Our stay was very comfortable, and well accommodated. Wi-fi came in very handy. Thanks for the great stay guys!

Susan and Kevin are terrific hosts. The accommodations are warm and cozy. Susan had the place fully stocked for our stay- drinks, breakfast items etc. There were plenty of games, movies etc. to keep anyone occupied. The internet was quick and reliable.Susan suggested having our tea out on the back deck- the woods and backyard are immaculately kept and offered a wonderful view of the blooming trillium. While this location is a bit off the beaten track, it is well worth the drive. I'm looking forward to booking with Susan and Kevin again during ski season!!!

Susan & Kevin's place was absolutely fantastic! My family and I have stayed at many Airbnb's and this was one of the most welcoming places. Susan really went out of her way to meet our dietary needs, including providing gluten, dairy and sugar free snacks. The snacks and drinks provided really made a big difference for getting going in the morning. The place was immaculate and very comfortable for my wife, son and I. Loved the availability of all the family games and the movie selections. Looking forward to coming back in the summer to really take in the greenery and the area. Overall, Susan really had us feel special and made it a wonderful experience versus just a room for the night!

Susan and Kevin's place was lovely! We had a rainy weekend, but could not ask for a more perfect spot. Tranquil, comfy, and relaxing it was exactly the weekend we needed from the hustle and bustle of Toronto. You are great hosts and your attention to the little things really separates you from the rest. Hope to be back soon! - Raj & Pete

Susan and Kevin has a gorgeous and cozy home with lots of amenities and great natural beauty around. The description on the posting is very accurate and more. The home was very clean and organized with lots of personal touch. As all the other reviews mentioned, Susan and Kevin are sincere and courteous. They went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and at home. The goodies, games and movies kept our family of four occupied with giggles and laughters after an adventurous day out. We stayed for 4 nights to explore Grey Bruce County and couldn't have asked for a more suiting place or a more caring and thoughtful host! The location was extremely convenient to stores restaurants and natural attractions. The starry sky at night was an absolute bonus feature! Dragonfly Hollow made our first AirBnB experience an unforgettable family memory and we will surely come back! Thank you Susan and Kevin!

The cottage was as described and was perfect for my group's long weekend. Lisa was a very responsive host and also thoughtfully provided a welcome gift upon our arrival. The cottage is beautifully designed and decorated and many of the group mentioned they would be more than happy to return for future cottage trips.

The Magical Log Cabin was gorgeous! A beautiful place to rest and relax. Lisa's welcome package was very comprehensive and everything was as shown in the photos. My friends and I had a wonderful weekend getaway and would re-book again without hesitation!

Great place, and great hosts!

Lisa was very well-organized prior to the trip. Note that you will have to fill out some extra forms but in a way it provides a reassurance that she is taking the rental seriously as well. The place itself is as advertised - beautiful wooden cabin with lots of space. Amenities were as described. We did not make use of the wood stove oven but we did use the BBQ and the fire pit. We went during a heat wave with no AC but we did find it quite tolerable with some fans and one portable AC unit. Overall had a great experience and would recommend :)

The host canceled this reservation 32 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Beautiful location, truly as described. Lots of space for relaxing.

Beautiful huge cabin in amazing property! Lisa and her husband were very helpful throughout our stay. We all had an amazing stay. Thank you!

Beautiful home. Would love to stay here again in the future.

We had a great time at Riki's place. The house is beautiful and big! It was also super clean and quiet, with no noise from the neighbours at all. We didn't make it out on the lake or spend much time outside as the weather wasn't very nice during our stay. However, there is a great selection of movies and even a PS3 to keep the kids busy during the unpleasant weather. Riki was an excellent hostess that quickly answered any questions I had. We'll definitely be back! Thanks again Riki!

My family and I were very pleased with Riki's house and our experience during our stay. The accomodations were as listed and easily accommodated our party of 6 adults with plenty of bedroom space, bathrooms, kitchen amenities and comfortable seating. The view of the lake was awesome from the house and patio and we enjoyed paddling the provided canoe around the lake most mornings. The area was very quiet and we noticed little noise from the surrounding lake houses. Amenties such as groceries, fuel and other supplies were only a short drive away and very convienent. Riki was very accommodating and responsive to our requests and provided a packet of local amenities and things to do. When we had difficulties completing the rental aggreement she went out her way to work with us. We highly recommend this rental for folks wanting a comfortable, quiet location to relax and spend time with family.

This was a fantastic experience. Riki was accommodating and had lots of details to share with us from the moment we booked. We received a package with security, safety, travel & tourism info, and a quick 'how-to' guide (which was very helpful when staying away from home). The photos in this listing do not do the place justice! It was very spacious and well decorated. With 8 of us staying here, we felt safe and were never tripping over one another. There was also plenty of parking for us as we arrived in separate cars. The kitchen, bathrooms, living spaces, and waterfront not only met but exceeded our expectations. The building was clean and surfaces were tidy. A quick trip into Hanover allowed us to pick up any groceries (&LCBO items). Although we did not meet or speak with Riki, we really didn't have to because of the front-loading that went into this stay. Riki made sure we had all the information prior to arrival and was available by phone/email/text if needed. The only down fall was that it was too cold to go for a swim! Hopefully we will return to this "Private Lake Escape" - it was a pleasure doing business with you.

Riki firstly was one of the most responsive hosts I've encountered on Airbnb. She got back on everything super quick. Not only did she give us information on the property and surrounds, she gave us great ideas on things to do in the area once we'd told her our interests. We were a group of 4 adults and 2 small children and the house was MORE than adequate for us. Its massive. 4 large and well appointed bedrooms. The pictures perhaps don't do it justice. It can easily fit the 8 they've said it can. The house is decorated with really nice details. Individual taste of course will differ but the care put into making the place a home is evident. Linen, tons of towels, toilet and kitchen roll and everything you can possibly need for the kitchen is included. Even a very well stocked pantry - though we'd taken everything besides salt and some oil. The house is right on the lake. We went in the winter so it provided great views at best. I can imagine in the summer it would be fab. They have canoes and other outdoor entertainment. In terms of location its a bit of the best of both worlds. Its about 5 minutes away from the town of Hanover which is well populated with food and coffee places, gas and stores. Where we were though was quiet and off the beaten path and just what we were looking for. While we were there, we went to Tobermory as well as The Blue Mountains. Both were about an hour and a half give or take. Theres lots of lovely towns and cideries/wineries waterfalls and natural conservation areas around. Also, many lovely independent restaurants, cafes, bakeries and coffee places. Plenty to do even if you didn't want to drive too far. The house was cleaned well and a big highlight for us with our small kids was the washer dryer. Oh, and it has a fully functional dishwasher which I've only come across one time before in my extensive use of Airbnb cottages. We have a fussy 3 year old that doesn't like to stay over anywhere without us doing a lot of hyping. When we left after visiting a waterfall nearby and said we're going home, she asked 'Where? To the lakehouse?'. That should tell you a little something :). All things considered, this has become a favorite for us and we definitely want to return for the summer.

The space is beautiful and the hosts were very responsive!

This place was perfect for my family of 8. Beds were comfortable and there is a nice sized kitchen for meal prep. Check in and departure were super easy and the cleanliness of the place was outstanding. Unfortunately we had a lot of rain during our stay but discovered tourist attractions are at the most, an hour away. And the games and puzzles provided kept us busy in the evenings. I would definitely come back.

Thanks Riki! We had a wonderful time :)

The cottage was amazing, better than expected! We had our own private part of the lake and Riki provided us with a canoe to explore the lake with, not to mention a large DVD collection for rainy days inside. Riki was very quick with responses, flexible with check out times. Would definitely book again next year!

We had a lovely time at Susan's property. The house is beautiful, fully equipped and well thought out. We spent our evenings reading in front of the fireplace. The property itself is vast and beautiful as well with a nice walk along the river's edge and through the trees. Susan was responsive and kind and provided us with the best possible experience. We look forward to staying there again soon!

We had a wonderful time at this cottage. Everything about it, from the inside to the outsider, was phenomenal. It was clean, well maintained and had everything you need. My family and I will definitely be returning. Susan was also a great host who was always in contact with me and very quick to respond. Thanks Susan for this great place!

Susan really is the host from heaven! She is so accommodating and very easy to get a hold of. The house is absolutely breathtaking and just what we needed to get away from the city. Everything is just as you read online, and perfectly clean. We had a great time and to be honest, we were so impressed with how much we had available to us (full kitchen, some food, bbq campfire etc). We're already thinking about making another trip back. Thank you so much Susan!

Susan's place is so very lovely. It's certainly one of the best Airbnbs I have ever stayed at. One of the best things about the house is how much Susan anticipates your needs: she keeps zip lock bags in case you need it, has firewood prepared for you, tissue boxes and coasters in strategic places. The kitchen is especially well equipped with everything you need--and good quality things too (e.g. la Creuset pots). The fireplace was magnificent, as was the ping pong table. It rained during our trip so we didn't get a chance to use the firepit, but that would have been terrific too. Thank you Susan for such a perfect, cozy, and fun stay!

Susan's home is exactly how it looks on the listings: spacious, clean and stylish. The fireplace was an amazing feature and a great place to sit and chill out. We had a lot of fun playing ping pong on the table downstairs which is in a lovely big room. The kitchen is large and well equipped (with the bonus of having lovely views of the forest while washing up!) The bedrooms are very big and have plenty of closet space. Susan was a fantastic host and available to answer any questions. Everything in the property was very clear and the guidebook was helpful. We tried one of the nearby restaurant recommendations, Pebbles, which was very good! We would love to stay again soon and highly recommend Susan's house to anyone wanting to relax in a beautiful setting.

We loved it! It was a bit more remote than we were expecting, but that certainly didn't hinder us from driving everywhere we wanted to go. Very easy, just jump on the #4 just minutes away and you're off to everywhere! Beautiful property to walk thru with a beautiful stream running thru it and trails to walk. House is gorgeous and spotless! We had everything we could possibly need plus some! Laundry facilities were there, house was warm and cozy and we felt very safe. We loved our stay!

Wow, what a gorgeous house! We thourghly enjoyed all the amenities and although the weather didn't quite cooperate, can see why this place is so highly rated. We snowboarded at Beaver Valley, which was a quick trip from the property. It was so nice to come back and have a fire and be able to cook in the gourmet kitchen. The kids actually got a bit of exploring and tobogganing in, in between storms :). We will definitely be back!

The home is more beautiful in person! Very spacious inside and out, and well stocked with all the essentials (and more) for all your needs. The kitchen is well equipped and filled with all the basic ingredients for cooking as well as some drinks and maple syrup too! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who asks. Susan is the best host I have dealt with so far - She is very timely with her responses, informative, and kind. Everything we needed throughout our stay could be found in plain sight, in the binder, or else answered by Susan within a few minutes. We were never left wishing we had brought something because it was already available in her home!

Cottage directly on the lake, has amazing views! Great to drop in your kayak and paddle the lake. There is canoe, kayak and paddle board for you to use. A quiet area with no noise from the neighbours. Cottage has extensive new updates! Will be fabulous when they put the final touches in. Has fire pit to enjoy the sun setting on lake while having bone fire. Small tight are for parking on side of road. Hanover is a short drive away, a lovely little town to explore.

Great location, few minor issues but host very responsive and quick to fix

It was a nice place. The cottage is nicely renovated and functionnal. Hanover is a charming town.

We had a great stay! We really enjoyed the quiet of the cabin but also the ability to stay connected if we wanted (good wifi, satellite tv). We loved being able to go for a nice quiet hike with our dog off leash and not having to worry about his safety. The property is gorgeous and it was stunning walking through the forest with freshly fallen snow. It was also fun watching him play with their two dogs!!

Beautiful cabin with great forest views all around. The kitchen was well stocked and the DVD selection meant hanging out there was good fun. If you're prone to mosquito bites, do take spray. Around the deck is fine but if you venture out onto any of the trails then they'll get you. Overall, would definitely recommend for a quiet getaway.

This was a great spot. As mentioned in other reviews the cottage was very welcoming, and upon arrival we were greeted with a fire burning, music playing, and a basket filled with snacks and a bottle of wine. The cottage was well equipped and cozy. A bit cold upon arrival, the wall heater and space heater were needed but helpful and eventually the cottage warmed to a comfortable level. I would recommend bringing slippers, or thick socks if visiting in the colder months. We made use of the snowshoes provided which was excellent and allowed us to explore the beautiful property which Milena & Johnny had mapped out for us. The perfect way to relax after a long hike was by spending some time in the hot tub that is situated just out front of the cottage with a view looking out over the hills. It is all very private and isolated, and the cottage and it's surrounding landscape made for an ideal weekend get away for my girlfriend and I.

We spent thanksgiving weekend here and wished we had been able to stay even longer! The cabin is exactly as described and shown in the photos. We had a lovely greeting of cheese and ciders and a friendly hello from Melina and their two dogs. Over all the hosts were great, we loved finding a dog friendly vacation spot so our dog could spend the long weekend with us. We took advantage of the trails and surrounding property to explore as well. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing vacation.

Booked this cottage for a small getaway with a couple friends over the Christmas break and it was just amazing. Stayed 2 nights and it felt like we were a week there. Very relaxing and a perfect getaway from the busy cities and lives. The hot tub experience was amazing in the middle of December when it was freezing, never experienced that before. The cottage was clean, cozy and its hiking trails very a nice walk. Milena responded in a timely manner to our messages and questions at all times. She gave us a Christmas gift on departure which was really amazing of her and made the whole experience that much better. Would definitely recommend this place and go back another time!

This place is a little slice of heaven. Thank you just doesn't seem to cover our gratitude for Milena and Johnny. From the very beginning they were so pleasant and friendly to speak to. We are getting married in September and a weekend out of the city to reconnect was exactly what we needed. Milena and Johnny were nice enough to let us invite our photographer up to take our engagement photos in the snow. Milena showed me some of the best places to take some shots - the sneak peak we've seen so far is stunning!! The pictures do not do this place justice. The cabin is so cute and it had everything we needed and more. The hot tub was AWESOME! It was so nice to relax in there after a day out playing in the snow. And the stars - I've never seen anything like that before! We brought our dog up who played well with Milena and Johnny's two dogs. They all got along so well that Sunday morning their two dogs came up to the cabin to see if our pooch could come out to play. So adorable! The only negative was that I wish we spent more time there. We'll be back!

This little chalet was perfect for me and my girlfriend. We had an awesome time. Everything was modern and nice, the wood furnace was very rustic and romantic. The kitchen was great too with lots of space to cook and modern appliances. The view and surrounding area was fantastic too, especially when you're looking at it from a hot tub. All in all it was great and i'd really recommend it.

Milena and Johnny were away while we visited, but we had a wonderful stay regardless. The cabin was open, laid back, and very comfortable. The property is beautiful for leisurely hiking, and I suspect for cross-country skiing in the winter as well. As beautiful as the weather was during our stay, we were partly disappointed that we didn't have the chance to use the wood stove! There were a couple of minor issues of note during our stay. The air conditioning wasn't working due to maintenance, which made for one uncomfortable evening, but I can't really fault them as no one was anticipating a random, 30-degree day in September before they left. A bigger issue was that my wife's pet allergies acted up when in proximity to the couches (which is understandable in a pet-friendly place). If you have allergy problems be sure to bring your meds! Aside from those two minor issues, though, our stay was fantastic and we would definitely recommend Relive for a relaxing retreat. (Pro tip: If you're using the hot tub at night, go out the side door to the deck and walk around to avoid being bombarded by moths!)
