Lovely home in a great area
Wonderful hosts and a seamless check in and check out process. They had all the amenities we needed for our stay and more. The property and home are unique and quite stunning. Linens were high quality and finishes were luxurious. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a bit of luxury in a beautiful part of Ontario.

Impeccably appointed
It was a five star accommodation. She welcomed us with a loaf of bread, milk and a stick of butter. I like the artisan bread so much that I bought one in the local store on my back home. It provided everything I would have needed. The meticulous service included a bag of whisky stones, a deck of board games, a fresh bottle of Perrier, a small flower pot on the patio table, you name it. Every corner of the house was impeccably appointed. The beds were comfort. The towels were soft. Every picture frame tells a story, justifying why it should be hung there. Everything was so impressive. It is located in about 15 minute drive from the Blue Mountain Resort and tucked away from the highway, offering both convenience and privacy. There is a small sandy beach near the marina, which is great for little children. There are a couple of restaurants in the town as well.

Really nice place to stay!
My parents and brother stayed at The Dookit for two nights, I booked the stay for them and visited one afternoon while they were there. What an amazing little place to stay! So clean, spotless! It had everything and more that you would need. Lots of space! I was staying in town with someone else, but there was plenty of room for four people, with the queen and two twin beds, two bedrooms. Lots of storage space, full closets, full kitchen, bathroom, even a laundry closet! Loved the little personal touches, the decor, the art, lots of Scotland related decor which I believe was part of the theme. Plently of games for all ages, a large TV, and lots of comfortable seating. The entire place was very comfortable and cozy! I wish I had stayed there too! Didn't get to use anything outside, it rained most of the time they were they, but the outside deck area and firepit looked great too. Parking was good. The location was very easy to find. I could keep saying so much more! 10/10! My family would stay there again and I would too!

Perfect apartment in the Blue Mountains area.
We had a great time at Dookit. The nice welcome by Lynn and the perfect organisation in the apartment made the stay very easy for us. The apartment is very nicely furnished and perfectly equipped. We were even given bread with butter. There was milk and mineral water in the fridge. Simply great. We would book the apartment again at any time.

Great family getaway
We had a great experience renting from Lynn at the Dookit. She was there to greet us on arrival to give a run down of the apartment which was great. She was so nice to leave us a little welcome package and was so thoughtful to include a few things for our ten month old daughter. Everything we needed was there in the apartment for cooking, linens etc, and even a pack n’ play and baby bath! It was very tastefully decorated, the heated tile floor was a nice touch! We will definitely be staying there again!

The perfect winter getaway!
The Dookit was the perfect spot for our winter weekend getaway! The place was well appointed, warm and inviting - with the perfect touch of Scottish “Coorie”. Our host Lynn’s added touches ( bread, butter, milk and tea :-) made it feel like home away from home! We especially appreciated the fresh cut flowers. Looking forward to our next visit! Thank you!

Couldn't be better -- exceeded our expectations!
We had a wonderful stay at Dookit -- the property was warm, comfortable, spotless, had great flow, and easily accessible. The well stocked kitchen and state-of-the-art appliances made meal prep a breeze. Our hosts were terrific too -- we loved all the thoughtful touches!

About the host

Hosted by Lynn

Host profile image
We emigrated to Canada from Scotland in 2007. We have family here and wanted our children to enjoy everything that Canada has to offer.
We are custom home builders and love what we do. You will see this in some of the details in The Dookit. As a host I feel like I'm spreading the love of what we do.

Why they chose this property

We chose this area as it's close to lots of outdoor activities all year round. Being close to the highway is a big advantage.

What makes this property unique

We pride ourselves on the uniqueness to the units decor. I like to call it Funky & Fabulous. There's monochromatic tiles in the entryway and bathroom with custom wallpaper all the way from Scotland as well. Comfortable beds and couches with pops of colour. Modern and chic at the same time.
