This was our second stay and it was again very good. Nice and cozy in spite of the cold and very picturesque in the snowy weather. We're looking forward to coming again soon!

Set in the quiet, beautiful countryside, the Settler's Loft was a welcome retreat after days spent hiking the Bruce Trail. Steve and Jane thought of every amenity we could need, including all kitchenware, toiletries, games, books and movies. Although we did not enjoy any, the hosts provided relishes and jams as well for a very personalized touch. The loft was comfortable and warm, the decor relaxing and the bathroom spa-like. A very nice grocery store (Zehrs) is a short drive away in Owen Sound. This is a great location if you're doing the waterfall tour, as we did. When visiting the Bruce Trail, we will definitely be back.

Very lovely loft. Loved every corner of it! My friends and I had a great time playing the vintage piano :) Thank you Steve and Jane for making our stay so pleasant.

I believe this is the third time staying at settler's loft and it was great as always! The lot is very private and secluded which is exactly what we're looking for when trying to escape from the city. Our 2 young kids love running around the huge lawn and we love not having to worry about them running into traffic! We're looking forward to coming back again soon.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Settler's Loft.

We had the best four nights at Settler's Loft. From the beautifully presented interior (lots of luxurious finishes throughout, including a supremely comfortable bed with super-snuggly bedlinen) to the complimentary jars of homemade pickle (more were on offer to purchase from the honesty cabinet) to the exquisite forested surroundings to the very welcome peace and quiet of Chatsworth, we'll remember our stay here as a real treat. There are so many beautiful areas in the vicinity to explore - Inglis Falls and Indian Falls are a must, as are the innumerable nature trails. And it was always a happy feeling to come 'home' to the Loft after a full day of adventures. Thank you, Steve and Jane - it's such a special corner of the world and we'll definitely be back!

Our stay at the settlers loft was wonderful. Our hosts Steve and Jane provided everything we could need . My children loved the loft and all the wonderful space outside to explore. Jane's father was such a nice man . We spoke several times and he gave us tips and information about the area. Also provided wonderful onions from his garden. I would definitely recommend staying here, and look forward to another visit.

Steve and Jane's place was exactly as depicted, and a perfect weekend getaway. They were prompt at communicating and very accomodating. We would love to go back in the future!

My partner Dan and I stumbled upon Neil's listing by accident. After reading the description, we thought, this is exactly what we need!!! Neil was prompt at responding to my inquiries, provided us with a map of his trails and really paid attention to detail. The cabin and his property are truly a piece of heaven! Nestled in the woods, but not so far that it's a trek. Nice and private. We had plenty of fire wood to keep us nice and toasty! Neil hosted us for delicious, organic breakfast every morning in his home. He even lent us snow shoes! We had planned to visit MacGregor point, but we just loved his property so much we stayed put the whole weekend. His property has great variety. We're looking forward to coming back!

We are new to Air BnB and are happy to report our first experience was an incredible one!  We are not your typical hotel/BnB travellers.  We love the nature, back to basics and the great outdoors.  Our host, Neil, provided that and more at Peacock Forest! The charming cordwood cabin was sheltered in the woods, close enough to the host’s main log home for convenience but far enough away to enjoy complete privacy.  As we were visiting in late November, we made good use of the wood stove and ample supply of wood Neil had left for us.  We really enjoyed the use of his 50 plus acre property which has seemingly endless trails lovingly maintained by Neil. He provided us with a detailed map of the trails so we could easily navigate them. Neil also let us use his outdoor cedar barrel sauna. It is heated by a small wood stove that he started up for us. It was a pleasant and unique experience. As for breakfast, it didn't disappoint either. We are quite health-conscious and really appreciated his wide array of healthy choices, most of them organic and locally produced: granola, whole-grain muffins and breads, yogurt and kafir, and a wide assortment of jams, jellies, and spreads. We will certainly do our best to visit this lovely and peaceful spot again to experience it during a different season.

We had a delightful time staying at Neil's off-the-grid cabin! It is a gorgeous property and the cabin itself is so cozy and charming. It’s even more lovely than pictures can do justice. Neil is a very warm, welcoming and gentle host. Such a pleasure getting to know him. He went out of his way to make sure we had what we needed right from our first connection. To give a few examples, he gave us extra towels for our rain-soaked dog, has detailed trail maps for guests to use and gave us helpful information about adventure options for us nearby. The yummy breakfast spread he made for us also deserves special mention! The area itself was neat to travel through. We stopped in Elora for lunch and enjoyed travelling through Amish and Mennonite areas, seeing horses used for farming work and transportation. Had the weather been more pleasant, we would have gone canoeing in the water bodies nearby. A very recommended stay!

If you are looking for a peaceful, beautiful, scenic getaway... this is your place. The cabin itself is a work of art that makes you never want to leave. If you do end up leaving the cozy cabin, there are lovely scenic trails spread out amongst the property to view. As for Neil (the host), I have never received such accommodating hospitality. He prepared us with everything one could need to enjoy a comfy stay in a cabin as well as go out of his way to accommodate dietary restrictions for our morning breakfast (which was amazing x1000). On another note, if you are at all interested in off-grid/solar living, Neil is the guy to talk to. We look forward to visiting Neil and his lovely cabin again! Michael

We arrived at the cabin on a beautiful snowy night and we were delighted to find that the fireplace bwas already lit and the cabin was warm and toasty. We spent most of our weekend cross country skiing at Massie Hills and doing puzzles by the fire. It was so relaxing and tranquil! Each morning we were treated to a delicious organic breakfast and good conversation with Neil. We are telling all our friends about this hidden gem!

This was our second wintery stay at Neil's cabin and it was just as perfect as the first! We loved revisiting his trails and the diverse woods on snowshoe. It was amazingly warm weather but there was plenty of snow for us to enjoy. We made the most of the warm weather and enjoyed star gazing every night in the muskoka chairs, just a short walk away from the cabin. We saw some stunning shooting stars. Neil is a great host, making sure we had everything we needed. He hosted us with a great breakfast and conversation every morning. This is a really special place and we feel so lucky to be able to experience it!

The Cordwood Cabin was everything I was looking for. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking go off the grid for a few days. I'll admit, I'm city kid at heart, born and raised in Toronto. Part of the reason I wanted to check out the cabin was to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, clear my mind for the new year as well as get in touch with nature. You have the option of going full Pioneer mode (no electricity), which is what I did or you could use the generator provided for electricity, there are lights in and outside of the cabin. There was plenty of firewood and candles provided so I was never cold or uncomfortable. Aside from the cabin, you'll have access to 50 acres of woodlands to explore (map provided), with several trails that connected to one another so it was pretty much impossible to get lost. The outhouse was only a few steps away from the cabin and it was a pleasant experience. Neil was an amazing host, I had access to the main house from 8 am - 10 pm. Breakfast provided was amazing, I was provided with many options and then some if I was still hungry. Neil even got up around super early to prepare freshly baked croissants and muffins. It was also great getting to know Neil and hearing his story. If you're looking to disconnect from the overly simulated society we live in and take things back to basics I'd highly recommend this listing. I'll be heading back up in the spring/summer to give it another go. Thanks Neil, I'm a changed man.

We had a unique and restful experience and Neil made our time in the cabin go as smoothly as possible. He brought us delicious breakfasts every morning which we opted to eat in the cabin. Some of the items in our breakfast baskets included coffee with cream and sugar, yogurt parfait, apple juice, and freshly baked croissants and muffins with butter and a selection of jams. Neil asked us in advance if we had any food preferences or if there was anything in particular he should know about possible allergies. We so appreciated the care he took in hosting us. We used the trails and visited the spirit tree. We also had a fire one evening and made use of the sauna which Neil kindly prepared for us. Neil went above and beyond with us. He shared a long tether with us so we could let our dog have a bit more freedom at the cabin. I highly recommend this space. It's private. The cabin is beautiful and well equipped. The futon is comfortable and the linens provided are clean. Neil is an excellent host. We left feeling more rested than ever.

This apartment has all you need to stay for a short or longer stay. I had a good experience at this clean, and centrally located space. I would recommend this place if you are coming to Owen Sound on a work related visit.

We had an amazing stay in Virginia's home :) My boyfriend and I had arrived later than expected, and she was very accommodating with our arrival time. Communication with her via AirBnB messaging was very easy and she was fast to respond. Virginia is such a pleasant host, meeting us when we first arrived and explained things to do in the area, where to eat, and future events that occur in Owen Sound. The pictures don't do this place justice! It's so well kept, clean, and spacious. Very tidy and feels like home :) Would definitely recommend this place!

Virginia is a friendly, warm and welcoming (URL HIDDEN) husband and I felt right at home soon after we arrived. Her home is cozy and clean, and offers lots of privacy. The neighbourhood is beautiful. We would certainly go back and totally recommend it. Cida and Clare

Me and my friend Austin stayed here for a week and it was amazing. Virginia was very welcoming and friendly the entire time. The apartment is in the basement so it was nice and cool during the hot days. The neighbourhood is nice and the house is very close to Kelso park. Overall, we had a great experience staying here and I would recommend it to anyone.

Had a great stay at Virginia's! The place was both lovely and clean. Virginia herself is a gracious and welcoming host. As I mentioned to her in person, the pictures don't do the place justice! Would highly recommend staying with Virginia if in the area.

El apartamento tiene todo lo que puedes necesitar para pasar unos cuantos dias visitando la zona. Fuera nevaba pero dentro hacia calorcito. Esta en una zona muy tranquila y bien comunicada, perfecto para conocer la Bruce Peninsula. No llegamos a conocer a Virginia, pero tanto la llegada como la estancia fueron muy comodas.

The apartment was clean and comfortable. Great location, with easy access to the rest of the peninsula. Would come back if returning to the area.

Ginger's kindness and hospitality were much appreciated. Her dog Hero greeted us with a few friendly barks. The basement apartment was clean and well lit. It's suitable for two, and although we didn't go to the beach, it's just a few minutes walk away. The queen size bed was comfortable as well.

My husband and I loved staying at Doug and Ruth's guest house! The place was exactly like the pictures, and their gardens were even more beautiful than expected. It was a great location to stay in if you are wanting to enjoy some of the beautiful Bruce Peninsula. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone!

It was a great delight to stay with Doug's family. We have got a lovely Easter gift on our day arriving at the heritage guest house - it was heart-warming. The place was cozy and neatly organized: you would find everything you need! (Coffee machine, toaster, can opener, wine opener, shampoo, soap, etc.) Doug was very helpful and quick to reply to any request we had. Since we wanted to have BBQ for dinner, Doug helped to teach us how to start and was very friendly and kind to offer to refill the propane bottle for next day's meal. We are very lucky to have such a wonderful host. The night was quiet and we slept well in our bed comfortably. Unforgettable time spent! A remarkable trip! Thank you Doug and family!

neighborhood was great, quiet country setting...would have liked to have gone for a run, however we couldn't find where the trails were. For some reason I thought they were within walking distance, but could have been me making things up in my head. The one thing we were missing that we thought would be there was a hair dryer.

Doug was a pleasant host and the cabin is charming.

Nice little wooden cabin. High ceiling makes it very open. Quiet and comfortable.

lovely little cabin, Doug was a great host, really informative on everything in the area and was there if we needed anything.

Doug and Ruth were amazing hosts. I communicated mostly with Doug and he was very quick with his responses. Met us upon our arrival and helped us settle in. Very friendly. The description is accurate - nothing really came as a surprise. Very lovely little house. Very clean and cozy. We went in the fall and it is such a beautiful area to see the fall colours. Inglis Falls Conservation Area was especially magnificent and we really enjoyed going to Harrison Park in Owen Sound. Nice playground for the kids and the Bruce trail comes through aona nice place to hike too. Would definitely recommend and we intend to come back someday.

Doug was very helpful. We were out for most of the day and it was much colder than expected. He was really helpful finding ways to ensure our comfort.

This little cottage is even more adorable in person than the photos let on. Very airy and nestled in the woods, Shawna has a beautiful property and garden. It is very peaceful there, and she has put a lot of detail into making your stay comfortable (i.e.breakfast food, fully furnished kitchenette, candles, books, toiletries and linens etc). I would definitely stay here again if I were in the area and felt very welcome as a guest.

The host canceled this reservation 29 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Don't let the lack of reviews fool you, this place is amazing. Me and my girlfriend had the privilege of staying in this beautiful cabin for a weekend and everything about it was incredible. It only helps that Shawna was an excellent host- very friendly and happy to help answer any questions we had about the area. Overall a great experience!

We really enjoyed our stay at Shawna's cabin!! We were very well taken care of and it was very tidy and comfy. The area is beautiful and quiet - great for relaxing, plus Owen Sound is only a short drive away. Thanks to her recommendations we made a litte trip to Southhampton, took the self-guided walking tour of Owen Sound, visited the Farmer's Market and hiked to the Indian Falls. Now we have a good idea of what we want to do for the next time we book the cabin (biking tour). Looking forward to our next visit! We greatly appreciate Shawna's hospitality :)

Shawna was a fantastic host. She made us feel very welcome, despite our late arrival. The cabin exceeded all of our expectations and was a peaceful and charming escape for the long weekend. We had everything we needed and Shawna's baked goods and breakfast supplies were a lovely touch. We would gladly stay again! Thank you!!

We had a wonderful stay here and we truly appreciated Shawna's hospitality and her eye for detail; everything was so well organized and taken care of! We are grateful that Shawna opened up her home to us, and that she took the time to show us around a bit. We thoroughly enjoyed this oasis of rest.

It was perfect place for our weekend getaway. Private cabin we stayed was clean, comfortable and cozy. Very cute cottage! It is equipped with all the essential stuff you need (kitchen supplies, hairdryer, shampoo, radio, books, extra blankets etc) Garden was beautiful and our host, Shawna was very friendly. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful break from the city.

My friend and I had a really pleasent stay at Shawna's place. Everything was well prepared when we arrived the cabin. The cabin is beautiful and clean and we loved to stay there especially because the place is so close to the lake. In the evening we usually sat at the waterfront. In the kitchen is everything you need to cook yourself a whole meal. For breakfast is everything there as well. We really thank Shawna for having us there for two nights and highly recommend her cabin to relax and exploring the Grey Bruce area!

Nancy was a great host, who took the time to greet us and show us around the house when we first arrived. Everyone had a wonderful time staying there and it was very convenient for us to be close to the Arena and Curling Club. The location is quiet with nice trails close to the river to explore.

Nancy is very nice and worm person. Everything was waiting for our stay. Strongly recommend.

Perfect place for large group of people. Fully equipped and furnished cottage with very interesting small things inside, particularly I loved the writings and quotes on the walls. Nancy and her husband were caring hosts as well. There is grocery nearby (3mins drive). I would totally recommend this place to those who wants to chile and relax sometime out of city and enjoy Ontario nature. It is also good place to stay for skiing in Blue Mountain because of its reasonable price, although it takes an hour to get there.

Nancy's house is spacy and the kids were able to play well. The house has a big terrace southside, a playhouse with two slides in the back and a small forest next door. Centre of Chesley with store, liquor store, a few restaurants and playground is close by. A good starting point for day trips to Bruce peninsula and the waterfalls of Grey county. Nancy was a warm host!

Communication was always excellent, and Nancy was very accommodating to our needs. The setting is beautiful, we were able to snowshoe and ski out the back and along the river. Chesley is very close for shopping needs.

Great house and room. Quiet an experience to stay away from the noise of mega city.

We had a wonderful time staying with Sim. The house was beautiful, and everything was great about our stay.

Its a very nice place if you are looking to a quiet nice view and tranquility.The host is so nice .The house are so clean.I give him 5 star for the price and everything.I will recommend surely his place.Definitely I will be back if time permits.

We spent a good and very comfortable night at keith's place. He was really helpful giving us information about what to visit around. The rooms are clean and very comfy. You can park your car easily. I recommend this place

The place was fantastic! Extremely cosy, quiet, and clean. Very friendly and welcoming hosts. A short but excellent trip for ua out of the City! A very serene getaway in a lovely setting.

Beautiful place surrounded by nature. Your host will make you feel home. Excellent experience. We will be back !!!

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 & Kevin's place was very cosy with a very warm and comfortable atmosphere , we felt more then welcomed by Susan & Kevin . I would definitely stay here again any time of the year . Highly suggest staying here .

Such an amazing experience! If you're looking for a secluded getaway in a beautiful area, this is the perfect location. Susan and Kevin were extremely welcoming before we even arrived, making us a personal welcome sign, homemade treats and even had a fully stocked fridge. We were treated like family more than guests at a hotel. We went in the winter and the scenery was beautiful but will definitely be back in the summer for another stay!

Susan and Kevin were amazing hosts and their lovely home was cozy and conveniently located for our trip to Blue Mountains. We checked in at noon but Susan was flexible and didn't mind us coming even earlier. The mini fridge was filled with goodies like fresh milk, fast drinks, juice, yogurt, etc and even had a basket of assorted breakfast pastries. There was a list of 100+ DVDs to choose from and we were able to fix ourselves up some dinner and watch movies all night in an otherwise radio silent surrounding. Susan's hospitality was unsurmountable as she was the quick to think of things that we needed and bring them over before even having to ask. She was always a quick text away and always responded promptly. Highly recommended, and will definitely return.

Wonderful place, exceptional hosts! The photos do not do this home justice. It is a very cosy, comfortable, luxury quality little place. We arrived after a tiring day skiing with two small children & Susan and Kevin could not have been more thoughtful, kind hosts. They had provided everything we could need - so many fantastic touches. It was also spotlessly clean. What a kind pair of hosts with an incredibly thoughtful preparation for our family - even a few lovely surprise treats. We were totally bowled over. We couldn't believe our luck had a really lovely cosy, comfortable evening. Fantastic place for a weekend - book it!

The true embodiment of what an Airbnb should be and more. Susan and Kevin are amazing hosts if you are considering staying here you most certainly should.
