Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bruce County

We loved our stay at Lindy’s, it felt like staying at a family members home. The views are beautiful and there is so much space to enjoy. Gorgeous hot tub with a view of the lake. Lindy was easy to communicate with, provided clear instructions and hosted us beautifully. Thank you for having us!

We had a wonderful stay. The house is fantastic for a group, and the hot tub and fireplace were wonderful during a very cold weekend! Meaford is a lovely town with some great restaurants and Linda’s house is a 3 min walk from the Main Street.

100% recommend this spot for large parties of people. Comfortable, furnished bedrooms with linens provided and an extremely stocked kitchen with everything you could need to make any meal. Everything was very clean and had a spot to return to make clean up easy. It was very quiet and private with tons of parking. Large yard for outdoor activities made for a great gathering area. Pack your bug spray however! The privacy of the trees and close location to a river makes for lots of mosquitos. 5 stars!

Beautiful place and breathtaking sunrise! Diego welcomed us very well! He gave a nice tour of the house. He is a great host, very friendly and accommodating. He was excellent responsive and easy communicator. Incredible lakefront deck and patio. The water was so beautiful! The sound of the waves was very relaxing! Stunning view! My family and I enjoyed swimming! We had to be extra careful getting in and getting out of the water because of the slippery rocks. Good water shoes is must. The stars were so bright and beautiful at night🤩 and the Sunrise was breathtaking! Everything was available in the house. The beds were comfortable. My kids loved all the collection of the books and DVDs. Great movies. Loved how the upper floor was set up for kids. Had an amazing long weekend getaway! Half hour away from blue mountain.

We had a wonderful time in Steve and Jane's quaint and cozy cottage! The beautiful view and the sound of the water made our time spent there enjoyable and peaceful. The cottage was clean, instructions were clear and they had everything you might need to make your stay a wonderful one. Steve and Jane were also quick to respond to any questions we had prior to and during our stay. Amazing hosts!! Thank you for a great time!

We have done a few different staycations through airbnb and this was by far a favourite…it was incredibly hard to leave so it’s safe to say we will be back! :) The views were stunning. Being outside surrounded by nature with mostly good weather, was so peaceful. Even stuck inside watching a rainy day through the huge windows was so cozy and beautiful. Milena & Johnny were amazing hosts who made sure we had everything we needed at all times. Can’t say enough good things about our stay in the Chalet!!

Came in September, days were warm and evenings were cool. You need blankets if you want your windows open. Non motorized equipment was good, canoe, kayak, etc. were in good condition. Water is crystal clear. We took our dog and the area was very private so we did not need a leash. Lovely cottage for 6 adults with room to spare. Beautiful sunsets! I knew we would do lots of pasta and I brought my favorite pot. I didn't find a pasta pot as big as mine in the lake house, so if you are a family of pasta lovers, consider bringing a large pot and colander for BIG meals.

My girlfriends and I all loved our recent stay at Birch Meadow Acres. Dave and Donna were responsive, friendly, and provided extremely detailed and reasonable instructions. The cottage was outfitted with everything we needed as per the listing and small touches make the place continually interesting because there is always something new to admire. Inside and Outside the cottage did not dissapoint.

Emily was warm and accommodating in every way. Her backyard garden was a private, beautiful refuge. Our master bedroom was roomy and the entire accommodation was clean, tasteful, warm and cozy. Her Victorian home and garden is beautiful, and had everything we need. I highly recommend Emily’s home as a great place to stay in Mount Forest.

I can’t say enough good things about the lodge! First of all, Esther is an amazing host and the space is so conducive to group trips. We went for a bachelorette with a “retreat” theme. Esther offers classes and we did the breathwork class, it was so calm and peaceful — the birds were singing while we did the class in the loft and Esther was a very effective facilitator! All the girls loved doing the sauna in the morning and we had a campfire in the evening. In terms of things to do near the lodge, it was also only a 20 min drive to Georgian hills winery, and 30 min from the water where we took Collingwood charters for a live music boat cruise. Tons of sleeping space at the lodge, was initially nervous that single beds wouldn’t be comfy but we all slept very well and the bedding was lovely. Lots of washrooms/showers which again was amazing for a large group of ladies, especially when we were all getting ready together for the day! Decor and overall vibe of the lodge is unique & cute!!

This was our second year at Carrie and Dan's cottage and once again my family and I had a fantastic time. The house is perfectly situated on the river with a nice beach and it has all of the amenities needed. Dan communicated regularly and checked in with us to ensure we had everything we needed. This is a beautiful property which anyone would have fun at.

Best experience , best location, best accomodation, best connectivity, best cleanliness - everything perfect. One suggestion - please install smart TV so we can connect our Netflix, youtube account because kids really need it.

My family and I adored Ruth’s place. It was perfect for our family of 4. Convenient location to both the beach and the town. The cottage itself is lovely, cozy and great backyard space for family games etc. Ruth was super responsive and friendly. We will definitely return to this little gem. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The cottage looked like the photos, was super clean and very comfy. We loved all the different outdoor seating options. There was a bird feeder in the tree and we enjoyed watching the blue jays and gackles. The beach was about a 10 minute walk. We forgot our marshmallow skewers, but they had some. The kitchen was well equipped. We would stay here again.

Quiet, spacious and clean getaway!Anna is a very responsive and friendly host!Highly recommended

We had an amazing stay for 2 nights at Eric’s place. The place was so cozy with a home-like feeling and had a rustic country look, which is perfect for a getaway. The place had all the amenities we needed, it was super clean and the beds and mattresses were so comfy. The place has a huge spacious backyard and a fire-pit, we were there at the firepit in one of the nights and had a great time there. My favorite part above all is that Eric is an excellent host, super responsive to all my questions and we were able to reach him so fast whenever we needed. We kind of did the booking last minute for a long weekend, and was anxious that we won’t be able to find a nice place to stay, and out of all the hosts that I reached out to, Eric was the friendliest, the most accommodating and the fastest to get back to me. Thank you Eric. The location was fantastic too, it was very close to a nice small town and a beautiful beach. We would recommend this fantastic place to anyone.

Clean, spacious home, big back yard, lots of parking, quiet street. hosts are super friendly and answered all my wonders. I would definitely bnb there again if the occasion would arise. thank you Catherine and Mike very much for everything!!

Great communication with Tracey. Very good welcome from Tracey and Dan when we arrived and they made sure everything was going well during our stay. The swimming pool (huge) and spa are a big plus to rent. And in addition the backyard is well fenced for dogs. So my golden was happy to let off steam in the wild. The listing is true to previous photos and reviews! The accommodation is conveniently located close to Sauble beach and Huron Lake in Oliphant. It's easy to visit from this location. The environment is quiet and restful and the neighborhood welcoming.

We enjoyed our stay at Butchart Estate. It was even more lovely in person. The kitchen has everything you could need and more and the pool room was a big hit.

We enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the bed was comfortable. The cottage was super clean. Jodi was very responsive and helpful! It does get a bit chilly at night on the cooler nights, so definitely bring some warm jammies for those evenings. It was so cozy and comfortable! It is a great rate and very close (within a 30-50 minute drive) to some beautiful caves and waterfalls.

Very nice, clean, quiet cottage. Jodi was very helpful and responsive. We would stay here again.

Perfect for our group. Some places have lots of bedrooms, but very little living space. This house has lots of both, and lots of outdoor space as well! We love it! Can’t say enough good! Amazing!

We had such a lovely stay! Jodi and Ken were amazing hosts! Jodi was super responsive and quick to help with any questions we had. We couldn’t figure out how to turn on the outdoor fireplace, and even though Ken had his game on, he still came over to help us out, which was so kind of him! The place itself was peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. It was the perfect spot to relax and unwind. We really appreciated how comfortable and welcoming everything felt. Would definitely recommend staying here if you're looking for a cozy, calm escape with great hosts!
