This entire property is stunning! We travelled with our two young kids, and it was absolutely perfect. We watched sunsets from the upper deck, took relaxing strolls down to the pond, and somehow ended up swimming every chance we got.We’ve never stayed until an 11:00 a.m. checkout anywhere we’ve visited before, but this time we stayed until the very last minute because we simply didn’t want to leave.The interior is incredibly thoughtful. I studied interior design, and the buckled headboards, textured spindles, curated artwork, and stunning wooden beams all earn an A from me. Heck—even the bread basket has a horse carved into it!Well done, John. Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us. We’ll definitely be back.

John responded to all questions and messages quickly; The space, pool and view was great and the area was fairly quiet.However... the powder room on the upper floor is quite small (even at 5" I had to watch my head); I don't know the cleaning schedule, but the upper deck and cabana may need to be cleaned more regularly as we found evidence of what looked like rodent droppings. Everything else was quite clean! The only other thing that isn't clear in the posting is that there are two units in this house (this is the back half), and it is across the driveway from their business (convenient and quiet, but not as secluded aa the photos make it look.)All of that said, personally I loved it! It was 10 minutes away from downtown Collingwood. We got our groceries, and then never left. The only other thing that would make it better is a washer/dryer. I honestly wish we could have stayed for a full week! Hoping to be back again some time. Thanks again John!

Beautiful Property and Friendly Hosts!

Had a great time staying here, my wife and I tried to spend as much time in the pool as possible. The property was very clean and it is clear that the Rentners have put a lot of love and work into making the property feel as comfortable as possible. We would gladly stay here again and hope to do so in the future!!

The host John was amazing!Absolutely loved our stay! The house is beautiful, spacious, and thoughtfully set up for a perfect family getaway. The highlight was definitely the easy walk from the living room right out to the deck and pool—ideal for lounging or enjoying a BBQ dinner.

Our stay at Bowmore House is memorable for all the best reasons. The design choices in the house are beautiful, and everything was very clean and well organized. The property is maintained with care, adding to the gorgeous mountain view. Upon arrival, John the host was readily available and just a super friendly guy who was open to questions. We enjoyed walking the trail and a couple fun surprises made us gleeful. We are looking forward to another trip there already!
