Nature lovers will find themselves surrounded by marked and maintained trails, such as the Credit Valley 'Upper Credit' trails and the scenic Alton Grange trailways, perfect for hiking or biking adventures. After a day of exploration, unwind in the quiet seclusion of the cabin's backyard, complete with a private fire pit and a serene sitting area overlooking the gently flowing river.

Family funeral
We really enjoyed this peaceful, well equipped and spacious accommodation. The beds were comfortable, the heavy blinds made for a nice sleep-in. The wood everywhere inside and the beautiful river in the backyard made it feel like a lodge in the forest. I wish my grandkids had been there to enjoy the trampoline and play equipment. We could have spent a lot more time on the great trails nearby. The host was really good with communication and she made our first Vrbo rental very positive and enjoyable, even given the sad reason for our stay.

Amazing and memorable time!
Our time here was so relaxing and peaceful yet so fun! We slept in longer than we ever have! The indoors is beautifully done and the property grounds were a child’s dreams from jumping on the trampoline to roasting s’mores (thanks Stephanie!) to catching and releasing minnows! The host is very responsive, flexible and kind which made it such a pleasant time. Can’t wait to visit again!!!
