Great for family celebration

We had a lovely time at Peaksview! We picked the location as we needed a place that was wheel chair accessible. And Peaksview was ideal. Andrea was great at reaching out to us to ensure we had everything we needed to prep a celebratory dinner for my father's Birthdays. The morning view is amazing and the water was a lovely chilly temp for a nice cold plunge. There is a great outdoor eating area with heaters which we used for our November dinner. Overall it's a fabulous property with an excellent host.feast.

Stunning Views and Lovely Home

What a beautiful home. The house it self is tastefully decorated and very well thought out. You will find everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and the beds are cozy. It was very easy to get comfortable in this home away from home. As lovely as the house is the view of the Georgian Bay can’t be beat! We would 10/10 recommend to everyone. Thank you Andrea.

Idyllic winter getaway

My cousin and I found the perfect winter getaway that we were looking for at Peaksview. The well-lit rooms, beachfront property offering sound of waves and picturesque sunrise, fire on wintry nights, beautiful hikes in the environs, board games, and a fully functional and stocked kitchen offered us lots of memories to carry with us. Andrea is an incredible and thoughtful host who offers local tips and has truly created a beautiful cottage getaway for anyone who needs a break from the humdrum of life. We hope to be back again soon.

Rest and Rest

Peaks View is the perfect spot to decompress from your busy life and reset your batteries. The sound of the water against the shore was well enjoyed by our group. This was a pleasant spot to help my hubby welcome his 60 th birthday and the covered dinning for outside was well enjoyed. This rental does not disappoint. It is perfect for a week long escape . Sunrises are spectacular and so is the fire pit and campfires in the evenings. Andrea and team do a great job on all experiences.

Amazing Location! Amazing Rental!

We are overjoyed with our stay! We were welcomed with goodies and the house was so cute! We were able to use the fire pit and Andrea made that extra special for us! Also, we really like to cook and were worried about pots and pans (even bringing some of our own) and this house was stocked with everything! Andrea made our trip so wonderful and we cannot wait to look into coming back in the summer! Would highly recommend! Such a great place!

The most relaxing stay!

Our family needed a little break, and Andrea's cottage was breathtakingly relaxing! Everything you need and more. The property is so well maintained, you can tell there is so much love for this home. We loved the private beach area, the kayaks, the firepit and the outdoor dining area. Andrea is so accommodating, and available if needed. We were so pleased and would absolutely love to stay again in the future. Highly recommend! Thank you Andrea!

Beyond our expectations!

Our visit to Peaks View far exceeded our expectations! The photos don’t do it justice. This was by far our favorite VRBO we’ve stayed in. Welcoming, clean and comfortable. Staying at Peaks View you will not want for a thing as Andrea has thought about every little detail. There were days on our trip that we stayed on property because we just wanted to relax and enjoy all it had to offer.

Girls weekend away

We had an incredible stay at Peaks View. No detail was spared with this extraordinary property. The cottage is beautiful both inside and out. Andrea provided everything that we needed and was always just a phone call away. Our girl's/moms' weekend away was truly the best! I can't see enough good things about this beautiful property, its location and the scenery. Thank you, Andrea! We can't wait to go back!!

Amazing Weekend Getaway

Our much needed weekend getaway was made exceptional by this wonderful property! Not only was it clean and well stocked (we especially enjoyed the matching beautiful dinnerware as well as all the necessities you would need to cook delicious meals), the attention to detail and location was what really made this a five star cottage. It was clear that much thought went into the decor (indoor and outdoor) as well the comfort of guests. The outdoor area was clean, well-maintained, and we appreciated how the outdoor furniture wasn't covered in cobwebs or bugs. Though the shore was rocky, nothing beat taking the floating raft out to the deeper waters and enjoying a dip in the crystal clear waters. It was so enjoyable we all want to come back again! Thanks Andrea for being such a great host!

Last minute getaway for 31st wedding anniversary

Luxury retreat indeed! No expense spared both inside and out! Andrea has curated wonderfully cohesive pieces and furniture to create a beautiful, relaxing and inviting space that reflects its outdoor setting. Well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and linens, great outdoor furniture...the list goes on and on. Location is so perfect. The water views are simply amazing. Make sure to look up at night to see the stars. Get up early to catch an amazing sunrise. Andrea was so accommodating with our last minute request to book. Very helpful and responsive. We will be back and maybe invite our kids next time :) Thank you Andrea for a wonderful stay!

Perfection!

Beautiful decor. Immaculate grounds. Magical view and sunrises. What a joy it was to stay at this wonderful cottage for a much needed week retreat. The peace and tranquility of Peaks View was exactly what a weary couple was hoping for! The attention to the finest details meant we wanted for nothing during our stay - it was pure comfort & relaxation. Andrea was a gracious host from start to finish and without question delivered a 5 star guest experience. The cherry on the cake was that Meaford & the surrounding areas have so much to offer and explore. We look forward to our return - especially that amazing lakeside hammock! Thank you Andrea!

Great location for a girls weekend!

We arrived at Peaks View at the end of January for a family girls weekend. We had lovely mild weather which allowed for lots of exploring. The cottage was very spacious and very clean. Equipped with everything you could need. Our crew included 3 adults and 2 kids. The kids (age 4 and 7) had a great time in the "bunk bed room"! They felt like they had a little hideout on the top level and the hours of fun meant there was time to relax for the adults! Fully equipped kitchen allowed us to prepare meals easily and the spacious bedrooms were extremely comfortable. This cottage would be a great option for 2 families with kids! Outside area was lovely as well, although snow covered at the time of our visit. Would definitely recommend!
