Girls getaway

This property was unique, clean and lovely for a night away with friends. Perfectly located in the centre of Elora and backing on to the water, it is truly a gem. The only downside is our stay was not long enough.

About the host

Hosted by Mandy Morrison

Host profile image
We're Mandy & Sacha, a 40-something couple that is passionate about good food & drinks, travel and going on adventures. Mandy is a Fergus native, a compulsive global wanderer, and a closet coffee snob. Sacha is a sports-loving Hamilton transplant, and we moved here permanently in 2011. We love to call Centre-Wellington home and have in fact owned and operated 3 successful businesses in the area.

We have an 8-year old daughter, who is a force to be reckoned with - we honestly couldn’t love her more. We both want to be more like her when we grow up! In our free time, we love to thrift, watch sunsets, travel North, try new restaurants, bike our neighbourhood, make wood bonfires and simply enjoy living in this beautiful place. We both enjoy connecting with new people and sharing stories, and we're sincerely happy to host you.

In our travels, we have realized the place you stay in while visiting a destination can make or break an experience. Our goal is to make your experience, so please let us know if there's anything we can do to make your time here better.

Why they chose this property

Friendly shops, award-winning restaurants and an adventurers paradise - Elora is a top Ontario destination for food, fun and festivals.

What makes this property unique

Just steps to the exquisite Elora Mill Hotel & Spa, a deck overlooking the Grand River and Elora's picturesque pedestrian bridge, our location can't be beat.
