Outstanding property!

If you are looking for a quiet away from it all place this is it! The place was spectacular. Short drive to the beach or Sauble Beach - for a little more activity - and otherwise quiet, restful place.

This was an absolutely beautiful home! I stayed here for 2 nights for a family get together. The instructions were very thorough and clear and listed what was available at the home. It was very well equipped with everything we needed. There was plenty of childrens and baby equipment which helped reduce the amount of packing my family needed to do! Very child friendly host and home. The location is amazing if you want something close to hikes and national parks. We went to Bruce Peninsula National Park during our stay! Nathan, the host was very responsive and accommodating. He answered all my questions!
