About the host

Hosted by GingerAnne

Host profile image
Hi, I'm GingerAnne and Peaches (my Bichon-Poo), we welcome you to Quest Inn!

I'm a lifelong lover of the outdoors, as I grew up just north of us here on Stoney Lake and have always believed that some of life's best moments happen when we slow down and reconnect with nature. Whether it's hiking a forest trail, enjoying a quiet morning coffee surrounded by trees, creating artwork on an easel, or simply unwinding with family and friends, these simple moments inspired me to create Quest Inn.

As a local resident of Peterborough County, I'm passionate about sharing everything this beautiful area has to offer. From scenic trails and charming small towns to local restaurants, farmers' markets, lakes, and hidden gems, I'm always happy to point guests toward experiences that will make their stay even more memorable.

Quest Inn isn't just a vacation rental - it's a place to escape the demands of everyday life, explore the beauty of nature, and return home feeling refreshed. Every detail has been thoughtfully chosen to create a warm, welcoming space where you can relax, reconnect, and make lasting memories.

Thank you for choosing Quest Inn for your getaway. I hope your stay is filled with peace, laughter, and everything you were hoping to find when you booked your nature escape.

Welcome - we can't wait to host you!

Why they chose this property

One of the things I love most about Asphodel–Norwood is its peaceful pace of life and beautiful natural surroundings. You're never far from a forest trail, a nearby lake or river perfect for boating, fishing, or simply taking in the view.

Whether you're here to hike, paddle, cycle, snowmobile, visit local attractions, or simply relax with a book surrounded by nature, this area offers the perfect balance of adventure and tranquility. It's a place where you can truly slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy everything that makes country living so special.

What makes this property unique

What makes Quest Inn truly special is the feeling you get the moment you arrive. Surrounded by towering trees on a private, secluded property, it's a place where the sounds of nature replace the noise of everyday life.

Inside, the home combines rustic charm with modern comfort. Vaulted ceilings, warm wood accents, and expansive windows bring the outdoors in, creating a bright and relaxing space in every season. Whether you're enjoying a game of pool, curling up with a good book, creating a painting at one of the art easels, or sipping your morning coffee while watching the forest come to life, there's something here for everyone to enjoy.

Its central location in Peterborough County also makes it the perfect home base for exploring the region's lakes, trails, charming villages, and local attractions before returning to the peace and privacy of your own nature retreat.

Quest Inn was created to be more than just a place to stay—it's a place to escape, explore, and unwind.
