About this property

The Country Nook. A relaxing retreat from the city.

A great country property nestled up against a forested area. This was once a barn that has been converted into the wonderful space that it is today. A small screened in patio off the back to enjoy the mornings. Wonderful hiking trails located just a 2 minute walk away. A common draw to the area is the world famous Stratford festival just a short 15 minute drive away. This is a great retreat from the city. The Country Nook is right beside our house. But offers a ton of privacy. If you have any questions or need something please don't hesitate to knock or send us a message. There is no cellphone service but wifi calling allows your cellphone to work normally. With your opening message will send you how to use it.
Please note we have 2 large dogs who are confined to our property via an Invisible Fence System. They do roam our property but are not permitted in the retreat unit. If you wish to meet them please let us know. Finally, we have security cameras that face the drive way and nook entrance. They do not look into the unit itself and are there to monitor the property only.

Lovely Winter Getaway

We had a relaxing time here and loved how thoughtful the hosts were in this renovated barn. It's beautiful! We were lucky to have tons of snow around and the hosts offered to lend us snow shoes. This was a magical experience! We got a little lost finding the trail but were rescued swiftly by our host. Kitchen is well stocked for anything.

Amazing Peaceful Experience

Overall an amazing experience not too far from the GTA. Although close to the owners property, You barely notice after a while and you will not be bothered. Owners are extremely responsive and exceeded our expectations in what was provided.

Beautiful cabin not far from Stratford

The cabin was perfect for the three of us -- a couple and our friend -- because the two large bedrooms gave us privacy from each other. The cabin is equipped with everything one could conceivably need, right down to extra toothbrushes. It is stylishly decorated, bright, clean, and comfortable.

Peaceful Stratford Stay

My husband and I spent three nights during our time in Stratford to see some plays. It was a lovely spot outside of town but still close enough to access everything needed within ten minutes or so. We enjoyed the comfort and peace and quiet. The hiking trail just up the road was an unexpected bonus! We'd definitely stay here again.

Little Family Getaway

We stayed at Kevin's "cabin", as our kids called it, for two nights to give them an experience of camping. This tiny house was the perfect, cozy little home base for us to explore the area. The home itself was private and incredibly well-stocked and clean. As a family we loved the lofted bedroom, curling up on the couch to play a board game or Atari, and enjoying a campfire. We're already thinking of excuses to return. I bet it would be incredible in the snowy weather too

Very nice cozy and modern cabin

Very nicely decorated and made with quality materials. View of woods in back. Could use a small table in living room for eating but it did have a bar top in kitchen. Was quiet. I would stay there again.

About the host

Host profile image
We are are a husband and wife team who loves to meet new people and have fun new experiences! If we are not on the property we are off on our own adventures which include skiing, snowboarding, camping and hiking.

Why they chose this property

This is a relaxing retreat. Close enough to Stratford but far enough away to have your own private retreat.

What makes this property unique

It's secluded and quiet. A lovely pond is out front. A Norwegian wood fireplace outside and a gas one inside. All the inside touches make this feel like a family cottage a place to relax and recharge.
