Summary: There certainly aren’t many rental properties like this one. Set high above Colpoys Bay, the view is peerless. And the interior is a marvel of design. Would definitely stay again. Thanks as well to Graham for being a great host.

Summary: It is a beautiful property that is perfect for families. The kids had so much fun just playing on the deck and the trampoline and exploring the beach. It is not that far to do a day trip to some of the provincial and national parks in the area, but it is secluded enough to feel like you it’s your own personal space. Having people living in the other cottage did not interfere with our enjoyment at all. They were quiet and left the majority of the space to us.

Summary: We, a family of three generations, highly recommend this property. It was unique, providing multiple opportunities to enjoy the location, both to kick back and relax, as well as participate in water events. Location was great for exploring the peninsula, hiking a number of trails, visiting waterfalls, and cruising in a glass bottom boat at Tobermory.

Summary: We had a wonderful week at this truly unique property. This was the perfect place for our family as it gave my son his own space, the Bunky, which has a queen bed. Great views from just about every room. We all had so much fun on the porch swing. My son had a lot of fun on the trampoline. We enjoyed going out in the kayak, paddle board and the paddle boat. The beach is great for skipping rocks, rocky beach not sandy. Centrally located to all the great things the Bruce Peninsula has to offer. The hosts are right next door, but we always felt like we had our own private place. This will definitely be on the top of our list of places to stay when we return.

Summary: The property is so beautiful! We stayed in the winter and the property was warmed up before our arrival, with firewood to keep us warm. Graham was able to quickly respond to any questions we had while there, and his house watchers were so helpful as well. The kitchen is stocked with any tool or spice you could need. Would absolutely book again.

Summary: It was hard for us to quite visualize the arrangement of rooms, as the architecture and and layout are quite unique. The Deck includes a Bunkie that is separate from the main building, but joined at the roof by a short gantry. The whole building (and the owner's similarly designed house next to it) is covered by one large roof. This means that any time of day or weather you are sheltered from the elements. The water is filtered from roof water and is delicious. The views over the bay through trees are a delight to wake up to, and deliver stunning sunset light in the evenings. The grounds are the right mix of curated and wild with a path that winds down to their private beach. The water is exceptional and beach hut, hammock and kayaks etc. mean it's easy to spend time there. There is also an at-your-own-risk zipline, trampoline and treehouse that kept the kids entertained for hours. Best of all perhaps, were the hosts. They instantly made us feel welcome, and gave us the feeling we were staying with friends that were delighted their efforts and care meant we had a fantastic stay. I'd love to keep this place a secret, but these guys deserve every bit of praise for what will be a memorable holiday for all of us!

Summary: We stayed at the property at the end of Jul23 + it did not disappoint. Everything that you could ever want is there to relax. The property is overlooking a beautiful view to the marina + the bluffs of Georgian Bay to the west; it is especially nice in the evening as the gorgeous lights of the sunset filter through. The property is beautifully designed with the kid at heart; there is an external bunk with a gangplank over the top + a door from the second floor to a hammock on the roof of the bunk that overlooks the outdoor patio. They also have a nice swing on the porch and off to the right, they have a tree fort that has a zip line down to a trampoline. Through the woods next to the zipline, there is a path that goes down to the Georgian Bay with boats for use. The water is clear, blue and beautiful with un-incumbered views down 20-70+ feet with no seaweed. There is practically no one on the water with the exception of random watercraft. The living space is airy, very thoughtfully designed and immaculate with lots of windows to enjoy the outdoors. There are also bikes to use. The property is located in a perfect location where visitors can experience the majesty of the Bruce Peninsula with all that it has to offer (boat excursions, rock jumping, hiking and cave exploring). Town is not located far away either. Wiarton is about 10 km + Owen Sound is 25 km the other way. Graham + Karima are wonderful, caring hosts. Our stay was magical! Thank you Barker family!

Summary: We had a wonderful time at this property. It is a beautiful setting with great amenities. Our kids loved swimming, skipping rocks, kayaking, and climbing around the tree house. The bay was very quiet and tranquil. We enjoyed watching the sunset from the beach and the large porch. Our middle child spend hours reading in the hammock on top of the bunky. We only had 2 nights at the property and we had explored the Bruce Peninsula prior to coming, so we did not venture out much once we arrived. The town of Wiarton was cute though and had a nice grocery store. The hosts were accommodating and respected our privacy during our stay. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
