We have stayed at many VRBO properties, and Ironwood ranks among the best. Excellent communication, superb attention to detail throughout the home, engaging and thoughtful design. Very comfortable throughout. Great kitchen if you prefer to eat in. And great hiking right out the front door. Highly recommended.
The stay was amazing for our group of 8 golfers.The owner was very responsive to any questions prior to our arrival.The owner met us for our arrival and took the time to ensure we understood every aspect of her property.They were even kind enough to provide pastries for our arrival.Would recommend for friends or family get togethers.
We enjoyed our mini getaway in this beautiful, comfortable modern country home. The owners are wonderful to deal with and the home and property offer all the conveniences one could wish for, in a beautiful setting.

So happy your group was able to enjoy a long weekend on the slopes with friends!
We rented this home last year & couldn’t wait to return! We came with our daughter, son in law & three grandchildren ages 10,8 & 3. The house is spacious, comfortable & gorgeous! We hiked on the trail right outside the door & despite wet weather we loved our misty family walk! The kids skied with friends close by & we loved returning to our warm cosy house! Thank you Laurie & Sunil for making our stay so memorable!

We had a wonderful stay at Ironwood! The house is stunning with a well equipped kitchen, games space and a fantastic family room to chill by the fire. Communication with Laurie and Sunil was excellent. Super hiking close by and cross country facility almost next door. The space was absolutely beautiful and I would highly recommend it!

Thank you for your kind words! So happy that your family was able to enjoy yourselves despite the weather. Come back anytime!
We had a wonderful stay at Ironwood. Laurie met us at the property and gave us a quick orientation tour and made sure we knew we could contact her at any time. We felt at home the minute we stepped inside. We really appreciated the welcome basket that was waiting for us and the digital guidebook. It really was key to helping us settle in with minimal effort.
We found the house to be well organized and comfortable and really enjoyed relaxing in such a pretty country setting. One of the highlights for us was the easy access to the Bruce Trail, which conveniently has an access point right beside the property.
The weekend away was just what we needed! We will definitely be in touch for another “escape weekend” soon. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

About the host
Hosted by Laurie and Sunil
The name “Ironwood House” is derived from the 100-year old Ironwood trees in our farmers field. I grew up around the corner from that same farmers field riding horses and enjoying the beautiful rural countryside. My husband Sunil and I call this our Happy Place – the open spaces and close proximity to nature is a natural elixir for your health. “In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks” – John Muir
Why they chose this property
We built our home in 2019 on this land as it offered long vistas, complete privacy and backs onto the Bruce Trail and the famous Niagara Escarpment. We are a Canadian family of five with a residence in Toronto who enjoys time in nature and ‘to get away from it all’. Our homes design is in keeping with the origins of the area, removes all traces of ornamentation and is reminiscent of a shaker style residence (called “dwelling houses”). It is an easy 1 ½ hr drive from Toronto to Clearview Township in Simcoe County.
