The Hills

The property was perfect. Just like the pictures. The little extras were very nice. I loved the bar soap, and I'm a man, haha. Nice little touches. Cute little coffee shop in the front that also sells beer. I think it has infloor heating as I didn't see any vents or heaters which was amazing. Warm to your feet. I would definitely stay there again.

Perfect fall getaway

I wanted to find somewhere with access to trails so I could spend some time with my ailing dog. Hills fit the bill - Meaford was perfect - all of the pretty without the crowds. The apartment was quiet, clean, beautifully maintained and extremely well equipped. No issues parking. We hit trails in every direction and enjoyed the fall colours. It was a memorable week.
