This property was so charming. Perfect space for two, well furnished and kitchen stocked. Everyone talks about the porch, we actually found ourselves willing it to rain just so we could sit out there and watch it! (And it did) The porch was definitely our favourite- whether having coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night. Very quick drive to downtown collingwood. Would recommend!

We had a wonderful stay! Very clean place and clear instructions from the owner. We were also 15 minutes away from Blue Mountain which maximized time for skiing/snowboarding. We would definitely come back again!

Great, country feel with a wonderful porch setting to enjoy your morning coffee, evening beverage and likely rainy day.
