it was very clean. It would have been helpful to have seen how high the stairs where and how low the ceiling was in the bedroom as somebody tall or with limited mobility would have a very difficult time getting upstairs. As it was, we hit our head a couple of times on the beams. It would’ve been nice as the sun comes in bright in the morning to have curtains on the bedroom windows also. It was enjoyable to have an outdoor shower, but we were fortunate with having good weather. For the price, I think firewood should be included as it’s five dollars down the road and it seems like that would’ve been a nice added touch. The host kitty cat came by frequently which was an added bonus, but we had no idea what to call him or her. We were not aware that the only running water was in the shower, but we adapted quite easily and maybe that was included in the description and we missed it. The booklet provided was very informative and we did go down to the nearby restaurant for dinner and ice cream across the street. it was a great location to go rafting in the Elora Gorge, and to be able to visit the town of Elora. The hostess was easily available when we needed to text her about needing power and paper towels. The setting was lovely and we watched a beautiful sunset.

Such an amazing and cozy spot. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful weekend!!
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
We had a lovely stay overall. If you’re looking to get away from the city for a night or two and spend some time surrounded by nature, this is a great spot. Being right beside the cornfields made it feel very peaceful and relaxing, and it was exactly the kind of quiet escape we were looking for. The bunkie was well-equipped and had everything we needed. The hosts had clearly thought of the little details—there were plenty of BBQ supplies, games, and other essentials, so we never felt like anything was missing. It felt like a comfortable glamping experience with the convenience of having everything ready for you. Check-in and check-out were both simple and hassle-free. The only thing worth mentioning is the bathroom. It uses a portable-style toilet, which wasn’t an issue for my parents, but I’m personally a bit particular about bathrooms, so it wasn’t my favorite part of the stay. It’s not necessarily a negative—just something future guests may want to be aware of before booking. We didn’t have much interaction with the hosts beyond a message before arrival, but everything was straightforward and easy. Overall, it was a beautiful, peaceful place to disconnect, enjoy nature, and recharge. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing countryside getaway.

and rustic place but most wouldn’t return. There were a few things that didn’t make out stay as enjoyable as we would have liked. One major one being the property is located right off the main road and the cars and semi trucks Rd
