A land far, far away...
Escape to the feeling of an old European Villa, dissapear from society while being surrounded by lively towns. Soak in a hot tub in a secluded Narnia after a day of skiing at Blue Mountain. Take shelter from the summer sun by cooling your feet in a stream as rainbow trout dart past. Or after a day of hiking the Bruce Trail, kick back in a sauna, while looking out at a view of fields and forests, with some ciders brought back from an afternoon in Thornbury.
Getaway.
A very spaceous property, entirely hidden from view of roads or buildings in any direction.
One hundred acres of nature, private wonderland of sweeping lawns, ponds, creeks, woods, and rolling hillsides.
Stay in a house that spans centuries, from 1850 on one side, to 1990 on the other, all tastefully intertwined.
Situated between several towns and cities, the location is great for dining, travel destinations, and local events.

In equal measure, the area boasts waterfalls, world-renowned hiking trails, and the glorious Beaver Valley.
Family-owned and operated since 1972
Three generations of our family have tended to the land. We have designed and decorated the interior of the home, and grown up with the many species of trees that cover the landscape. The wilderness we trampled through in rubber boots as kids became the retreat we now maintain, ever dreaming of its possibilities, as our grandparents once did.
My name is Catherine, your host and the property manager. An artist and designer, I strive to follow in my grandma Peggy’s footsteps in how she stylized this home and surrounding gardens and landscapes. Her artwork is displayed throughout the house, as is her mother’s before her, and some of my own now, too.
Our guests come to us looking for a perfect place for their families and friends together, and they tend to return again and again. This is a place that allows you to make it your own, to become a part of the history.
Whether reuniting friends from college, or families that are spread out across continents, old memories are celebrated here while new traditions are made.
Infants return as toddlers, already with nicknames for the place, and then as growing kids ready for adventures that keep them busy outdoors all day long.
We brought tons of activities to keep everyone busy over the weekend as we were a large group with varied interests but we barely touched them! There were so many nice spots to sit that accommodated all 11 of us that we spent most of the weekend just catching up and laughing.
Unwind
Getaways
We cater to large groups and small. It is an ideal space for families and friends to get together.
With six bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two large living rooms, a stocked kitchen, a spaceous dining room, and lavish outdoor patio areas, there is plenty of room for a group of up to 13. Our guests tend to return again and again, to build on past traditions and make new ones.
We also offer exclusive use of the first floor for those seeking a spaceous cottage retreat all to themselves. A popular choice for couples celebrating an anniversary, or small groups seeking an inspirational space to work remotely, or simply enjoy the natural surroundings.
Looking for the perfect place to gather with friends or family? You’ve come to right place. We have hosted celebrations for all ages and events, including a murder mystery and a citizenship ceremony. Many guests returning each year.
During the week, we invite small groups to come stay for a special rate. A great option for couples, small families, or friends, whether to work remotely or to not work at all! Spread out in the spaceous house, relax in the hot tub, explore the 100 acres of nature and the many hiking trails.
A perfect place to host a wellness retreat, we have peace, serenity, and yoga mats in spades! We have loads of yard space, as well as a pond with a groomed path where yogis can lay out mats in a big circle. In the house, we have two large rooms with ample space.
