Newly decorated Ski Spa hang out in hammock
We had a great stay here! The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. A close drive to shopping centre, the Spa and the village. The only comment to make was there are no curtains/blinds on the main floor of the house, and the hot tub mentioned is the jet tub in the ensuite. Regardless of this, we still had a great stay and would love to come back.

Spa cottage: hot tub, sauna, cold plunge & firepit
Thanks for an amazing stay we are already planning our summer getaway back. The host were very accommodating and super helpful. The place is better than the photos. We are already missing it.

20 min from Blue Mountain -Relax & Enjoy Winter
Such a great place to stay after skiing at Blue Mountain! Definitely recommend.

Luxury Vacation Home at Blue Mountain Village
This was a beautiful place with great views, only a 5 minute walk away from the village. It was clean with an organized bathroom and kitchen amenities. We weren’t missing anything. There was a nice fireplace with a lot of board games. Super cozy, and a great place to take photos. You also had access to a shared hot tub. Sometimes other people got rowdy at the hot tub, but that is to be expected. Overall this is a great place for families or get togethers for skiers and people that like great restaurants and social events. Thanks, Adam!

Private condo getaway at base of Blue Mountain
Great place very Cozy. Krista is a great host. We keep this place in mind for a future trip in this area

Bruce Peninsula Country Loft on 17
We had an incredible girls weekend - it was so relaxing and everything we could have ever wanted. They’ve made such an incredible getaway we’re so grateful to have been able to find - the personal touches, thoughtfulness, amazing amenities and details that have went into every aspect of the property have us already dreaming of coming back for another getaway to relax and recharge! From start to finish this stay far exceeded our expectations and we could not have asked for better hosts or a better stay!

Beautiful Getaway Location - Cuddles Cove
This home is beautiful and well equipped. Giovanni was pleasant and responded quickly to inquiries. My only suggestion would be for visitors to check the beds before choosing rooms, as some bed are firm and others quite soft.

COZY Cottage steps away from the beach.
Andreina was a great host. I booked her place for a guest of ours and she was quick to answer any questions and was really accommodating to our guest who had pets. Her place was in a great location, private but not too far from town. The house was just as the pictures said and kept really clean, she made our guest feel right at home! I would recommend her place and I look forward to working with her again in the future!!

Your guide to Tobermory
All About Tobermory
Nestled between two national parks at the northern end of the Bruce Peninsula, Tobermory is a picturesque Canadian harbor town that boasts thriving marine ecosystems, dense forests, and rocky coastal cliffs. The vibrant landscapes and clear waters in every shade of blue provide a stunning backdrop to the abundance of outdoor activities Tobermory has to offer. Head to Fathom Five National Marine Park or the Grotto to snorkel or scuba dive, or check out Indian Head Cove, a popular swimming spot along the Georgia Bay Trail that’s cocooned by rocky cliffs and dense cedar tree forests. Consider Dyers Bay or Cape Chin North for picturesque hikes.
Tobermory is also home to two beautiful harbors — Big Tub and Little Tub — where you can browse pretty shops among the bobbing local boats. Casual eateries and pubs are sprinkled throughout the Bruce Peninsula, with many offering views of the harbor to accompany the day’s catch.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Tobermory
Tobermory experiences distinct seasons. One of the best times to take in the region’s natural beauty is during the summer, when the temperatures are pleasant and the days are long. At the beginning of June, orchids bloom and adorn the trails and parks throughout the Bruce Peninsula. During the fall, Tobermory’s dense foliage transforms into spectacular shades of burnt orange, ochre, and crimson. Temperatures slowly dip during this time, especially at night, and can drop drastically during the winter, so warm clothing and sturdy footwear are strongly recommended if you’re planning to hit the trails or get out on the water. You can expect rain and snow throughout the fall and winter seasons — you’ll want to consider your choice of rental vehicle based on the conditions and your plans — before temperatures gradually rise with the arrival of spring.

Underwater at Fathom Five National Marine Park

Pack some snacks and water and make your way across the waters of the Georgian Bay to Flowerpot Island, where you can admire one of Tobermory’s natural attractions.

You can also explore the island’s many hiking trails and caves and find its pretty red and white light station.
