About this house rental

Located in South Bruce Peninsula, this lovely house for $203 per night is a great option for your next vacation. Beautiful creek location on Park Head Creek in the village of Shallow Lake! Drive ten minutes to Sauble Beach, two minutes to Sawmill cross country ski trails, 400 meters to snowmobile and hiking trails and Shallow Lake. Only ten minutes from Owen Sound! This cute brick home was completely renovated in 2017 with your comfort in mind. Three bedrooms offer space for six people, a full bathroom with washer/dryer and a powder room ensure your comfort, and a well equipped kitchen allows you to easily prepare and share meals together. Enjoy a campfire outside beside the creek or enjoy a show on the Smart TV inside. Control the indoor temperature with the brand new furnace and AC system. Bring your hammock to read outside in the trees, or relax on the comfy couch indoors. The beds all have new high-end mattresses with excellent quality sheets, pillows, duvets and duvet covers. While the bedrooms are small, we have supplied more than enough hooks for your clothes. Experienced hosts Rob and Bettie have two years of hosting experience with excellent reviews. Our top ten favourite things to do in the area... #1 SKI!!! Cross country ski trails offered by the Bruce Ski Club. These include three facilities (Sawmill Nordic Centre - two minutes away, Rankin Ski Trail, Colpoys Ski Trail). #2 Visit the Artists' Co-op in Owen Sound #3 Catch a concert at the Heartwood Hall in Owen Sound #4 Wine tasting at Coffin Ridge Winery #5 Eat fabulous mexican food at Casero in Owen Sound #6 Spend the day at Sauble Beach #7 Hike the Bruce Trail #8 Have a campfire #9 Cycle the country roads #10 Buy buttertarts and antiques at the Shallow Lake Mercantile Notes on A/C, internet, noise, neighbours, etc The house has high speed steady internet. We have tested it numerous times with our kids and had our music accounts, email, netflix, online searches and my son's game site open all at once. The 5G speed of this Eastlink service stood up well and the search times were close to the service I have at home in Hamilton. In terms of reliability, we chose Eastlink because their track record was good, and we have not had any "outages". The air conditioning is a brand new central air system (we put in a new furnace and AC system when we renovated this summer). I have not yet tested it because it is winter, but the unit is more than adequate for the house size. We have had some time to test the furnace system and it heats the house very well. We also insulated the entire house to meet new energy incentive standards and it is extremely efficient, so the units don't actually run nearly as much as mine at home. We also put in brand new windows for the same reason. In terms of noise, Highway 6 to Sauble Beach is across the creek about a city block or two away, and on a Friday night you do hear some of the car traffic, it is a "one lane each way" paved road through town, so it is nothing like hearing a 400 series highway. Because it is a village, there are two houses on the other side of the road from the house (not opposite but on each side). The neighbour to the one side is on the other side of the creek, and the neighbour on the other side is closest; their house is about 20 feet away. We have gotten to know them well and they are a stable and quiet family. The creek curls around the house (beside and behind), so the neighbours behind are on the other side of the creek. You do hear the quiet babbling of the creek at night.

I would urge anyone that is considering a vacation in the vicinity of the Bruce Peninsula and surrounding areas to take a very good look at this property. It is a fantastic, well designed, fully equipped cottage and as soon as you walk in the door and look inside the place you just know that you have made an excellent choice. My wife and myself stayed there for 3 nights but would have been more than happy to stay for longer. I cannot think of any negative comments whatsoever to say about Creek Cottage, Bettie is an amazing host and was very quick to communicate and so kind in letting us stay a little longer than planned on our check out day. It is a seriously good 'home from home' property and excellent value for money considering the location and sheer quality and love that has gone into this place.

The creekside cottage had a great “in the woods” feel with all the trees and stream running through the property while having a great coffee shop a short block away. The cottage was just a few minutes to Sauble Beach and the kayaking and cycling routes we had planned. Owen Sound was also close with lots things to do there. Creekside cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed!!

Thanks Again!
Thanks Again!
We were thrilled to be able to return to Creekside Cottage for a winter week-end getaway. Again we had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the cozy ambience and gorgeous views. The bottle of wine and chocolates waiting for us was also such a great welcome! And once again, our time went too fast and we were sad to have to leave so soon.

My friends and I were very comfortable at Creekside Cottage. It is well designed, cozy and tastefully decorated. Our favourite place in the house was the spot off the kitchen where we could curl up in an armchair with a book and a view of the running brook. A gem!

This was a wonderful little cottage that was immaculately clean and well stocked. Beautifully decorated with quality and comfort in mind. The outdoor garden area with a stream running through it was peaceful and calming. We didn't want to leave!
