Nalini's Advise
1) My advise is for you to visit us for at least 3 day's as our guests have mentioned that it takes at least 3 day's to discover our property.
2)Over the number of years that we have welcomed guests to our property, we have observed that our guests throw away a lot of food on the day of their check out. I will advise that you pack less food and supplies than what you think you will need and purchase what ever you need extra from the Food land, LCBO and all of the other family owned stores in the beautiful boutique city of Cannington. By doing this you not only ensure that you don't waste any food, in the meantime support a local store/restaurant run by families.
3)We provide plates, Glasses, mugs, and purified well water that is safe to drink. We have a dishwasher and we provide detergent. Please avoid bringing paper/foam plates, cups, containers so that you can contribute to protecting the environment.
4) I will advise guests to visit us during October and November. During these months you can experience the leaves change colour, weather is cooler and you will not have any bugs or mosquitos bothering you while you experience the outdoors. If you are lucky you might experience some days with warmer weather and can take a dip in our pond.
5)Maximum amount of Guest that we allow to stay in our property is 12(we are strict with this count). We have security cameras outside of the property to monitor and will charge a surcharge of $75 for each additional guest per day as per our listing.( Wear and tear of our property is close and dear to our heart. We want to keep our property in this condition so that all of our guests have a place to come and enjoy for years to come. We request all of our guests respect this rule and adhere to the maximum numbers allowed to stay at our property).
6)We have security Cameras installed outside on our land for ours and our guests safety and security. These are installed facing the drive way, facing the pond, facing the pool, facing the front of the house and facing the river. These devices will be on and will be recording the outside activities of our property.

Great set up!

This listing comes as advertised and then some! The farmhouse is very comfortable for a large group. All the comforts and amenities of a new building with the charm of a cottage get away. Don’t hesitate at all if you’re looking at booking this place. The owner was very responsive. The property is close enough to local stores in case you forget anything. Overall I highly recommend this property!

Best vacation home stay!

If your looking so a spot that fits the vibe of versatile this is the spot! The property mangers were very accommodating and kind. They jumped through hoops to make sure my birthday party went off without a hitch and honestly helped me feel less stress planning my party! The bathroom are spa like and the bedroom are massive. The pool could use an actual heater. But while the sun was out it was manageable. So many games for my friends and I to play.

Nalini and Mano were absolutely amazing. Communication was amazing the moment I reserved the spot. They always had an answer to my questions. They were very detailed in the check in and check out process! They were accommodating for early check in and late check out which was super ideal. Their place was very clean, had so many fun games and a pool table! The house was too tier and my friends and I LOVED it. The pool was so nice as well! It is solar heated so it doesn’t get warm until the sun is out for a bit but that was no problem since it was nice and refreshing! There is a lot of seating near the fire, hammocks and even a little paddle boat in their pond! There is also a nice lake spot at the back of the pond to explore and take photos! Overall, my friends and I had such a fun stay and we want to make it a yearly gathering. It’s also only 1.5 hr away from Toronto which is amazing because travel time is short to escape the city. 12/10 would recommend to anyone!!!!

I am always amazed about how amazing this escape is. My friends and I are making this a yearly getaway and this is our second year and I am yet again VERY pleased. The property is SO clear and well maintained, the space is huge and perfect for a group of 12. The kitchen is very large, a lot of fridge space! They have so many fun activities indoors so if the weather isn’t great the fun doesn’t end! The yard is MASSIVE, so much room for fun games and beer olympics. The pond is lovely, we had a lot of fun on their new addition of paddle boards. The pool is great, a bit chilly but once you get used to it, it’s very refreshing! Mano and his partner are very friendly, informative and responsive. I’ve never had an issue. My friends and I will certainly be back and I will be recommending this to anyone else looking for the perfect cottage getaway!! The price is great for everything included. Thank you to the owners for always giving my friends and I the most amazing experience and great way to enjoy summer!!!!!!
