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.

Check in was easy….good directions by owner.Comfortable beds…..beautiful setting with a vehicle. Only 10 minutes to Stratford.Friendly dogs kept us company.
A very cozy stay! My family and I loved the place. Great location. It's easy to tell that the owners put a lot of care and attention in the place. I would 10/10 recommend and stay here again!
The Nook is a sweet hideaway, the layout is well thought out and the screened in back porch was a perfect place to relax and enjoy my book. I’ll definitely stay again if I’m in the area!
Very cool place.... We loved the screened in porch. All the comforts we needed. Very much in the country, but only 15 mins drive from all the stuff you might want in a small city like Stratford. If you want to meet them, the hosts' dogs WANT TO PLAY with you and they're adorable.
The Cozy Nook was perfectly cozy and stuffed with little extras that made my families stay amazing. Adorable modern farmhouse interior with coffee and creamer in the fridge! Games, streaming, books, fire place outside and in! Everything was so thought out and clean. Wonderful stay, and with so much to do in the area, I highly recommend!!!
Kevin is an amazing host. The property was very clean and well thought out. Everything we needed was there and the place was so comfortable.Echo the dog was very friendly and was very happy to play with us. Loved everything about the place.
Loved the Nook!!! Very clean and modern facilities. Beautifully decorated; welcoming and comfortable. !!Close to the city with wonderful exposure to nature !!Awesome !!
We revisited the Country Nook for our wedding anniversary again and loved it. Games, movies, a quiet restaurant meal nearby and even snowshoeing. Clean, quiet and nature. Thank you Kevin and Allison!
The owners are very welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed. It was very well stocked with amenities and decorated beautifully. Would love to stay here again!
Such a cosy, functional, lovely place to stay. Close to Stratford if you want to catch a show. Beautiful setting. Just an all around great place to stay.
We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin! Everything was thoughtfully prepared and truly exceeded our expectations. From hygiene essentials like cotton buds and floss, to a fully equipped kitchen stocked with basics like oil, salt, and pepper—every detail was considered. The cabin itself is immaculate and instantly felt like a home away from home.
Entertainment options were fantastic, with a great selection of board games and even a console to enjoy during downtime. The picnic table outside was a lovely touch—perfect for a BBQ or simply enjoying a meal surrounded by nature.
One of the highlights was meeting one of their sweet and playful dogs, who instantly became a favorite companion for our child. Speaking of which, our little one had the time of their life here, and so did we.
The location is great too—peaceful and cozy, yet just a short drive to Stratford if you're in the mood for exploring or being around people.
We would absolutely love to return. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and memorable space!
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.
