About this property

Beautiful barn conversion set in the hills & forests of the Creemore area.

Whippoorwill Farm Barn sits nestled in the forests and highlands of Mulmur next to the Niagara Escarpment. Originally a drive shed built and milled by the trees it replaced in the forest, part of it has been lovingly converted into a 3 bedroom dwelling gently living alongside the wildlife already there.

Finished in 2024 and designed with a distinctly Scandinavian sensibility, the barn represents a new generation of special places to stay.

In the surrounding area are many trails (including the Bruce Trail a few kilometres away) and fantastic cycling, fishing, and walking opportunities. 10 miniutes drive is the picturesque village of Creemore.

As they say themselves: "Smiling neighbours and friendly shopkeeperss welcome you to their community, while independent restaurateurs and business owners can’t wait to share their passions.

Home to Creemore Springs Brewery and North America’s smallest jail, the community hosts a weekly farmers’ market and many annual events, offering ample opportunity for visitors and residents to come together to celebrate rural Ontario living."

Jim and Gill, owners of Whippoorwill Farm will happily work around your needs, ranging from having a fridge already stocked with local home made produce, or a wood fire ready to go, or to leaving you well alone to enjoy the restorative magic that lives in this enchanting area.

Being so close to all the ski hills (Mansfield Ski Club and Devils Glen especially) we're happy to consider longer term winter rentals at a reduced price.

Wonderful stay and hosts!

We had a terrific stay at Jim and Gill's lovely property. It was exactly as depicted and beautifully furnished. We are quite familiar with the Creemore area and really enjoyed the lovely shops and restaurants. Our hosts were very kind, accommodating and responsive. Highly recommended!

Cozy Barn

This barn is nestled in a very quiet and beautiful setting. It was perfect for getting away from the city for a few days to enjoy peace and relaxation. Jim is an excellent host, very attentive and eager to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

Thank you for your great review. As we've onnly just started renting would love any feedback on what could be better, or any concerns you had - no matter how small. Thanks Simona, hope to see you again. Jim

This place is a hidden gem and the decor was second to none. We met Jim and he was lovely. We forgot butter for corn on the cob and he was nice enough to bring us some from his personal home. We would love to come back in the fall or winter.

Our family loves good design and this barn conversion is perfect. So many beautiful touches, this is no ordinary house rental. The house is matched with an unimpeded views of the forest. We would love to return!The hosts were wonderful, very responsive to our requests and they even posted a book that my husband had forgotten tout suite. Thx it arrived today!
