About this property

Luxury Log Home, Southern Georgian Bay - Explore Blue Mountain to Tobermory

Highland House sits beautifully above the shores of Georgian Bay on 7 private acres of forest and manicured grounds. The estate property’s 500 ft. driveway leads to exquisitely appointed gardens and hardscape that surround the 3500 sq. ft. custom built modern log home.

With five bedrooms, a living room with a gas fireplace, an inviting kitchen and dining area, a media room and spa, Highland House offers couples and families a superior year-round retreat to rejuvenate and explore.

The two-level deck and new 9 person, salt water Arctic Spa hot tub overlook the property’s fire pit and are complimented by a Canadian Western Cedar indoor sauna provide a spa-like atmosphere to unwind and reconnect.

A chef’s inspired outdoor kitchen and a professional gas fueled stone pizza oven along with produce and herbs from the vegetable garden will ensure memorable evenings spent with family and friends around the deck’s harvest table followed by board games and movie nights on the 82 inch TV screen in the lower level’s media room.

Highland House provides easy access to all of southern Georgian Bay’s amenities and attractions. Hiking on the Bruce Trail, golfing, mountain biking, rock climbing, fishing along with ski and snowmobile trails are at your doorstep and are surrounded by Grey County’s 8 picturesque waterfalls.

Pack a picnic and visit the area’s secluded or more popular beaches or take a drive into Collingwood or up the Bruce Peninsula to Tobermory. With a boat launch 5 minutes away, explore Georgian Bay by water or paddle on local rivers through the countryside. Wineries, cideries, breweries, arts, culture, music and culinary events, festivals and fall fairs can all be found throughout the area’s historic towns and villages. Fine dining and take away restaurants along with local shopping are all nearby.

For a long weekend, a week or monthly rental, Highland House offers a memorable experience that will heighten all of your senses.

Highland House is cleaned to the highest quality standards and the hot tub and sauna are professionally treated between guests. Gardening and home maintenance take place weekly.

Linens have been purchased through William Sonoma and Pottery Barn and furniture and beds are new.

Idyllic Winter Retreat
Family comprising 3 couples had a wonderful relaxing stay at this beautiful retreat amid the snow and trees with Georgian Bay visible in the distance. Romping in the snow with the dog was unbeatable. Soaking in the spacious hot tub while the snow was all around us was a delight. Well-equipped kitchen made meal preparation a treat. Two large spaces for reading, relaxing, games, and fabulous spa with two-person shower and sauna all lent themselves so well to relaxing. We all enjoyed our stay very much. Communication with David, Pauline and Annette was fabulous - they are wonderful hosts.

Weekend Getaway
My sister and our partners found the Highland House and it was the perfect location and retreat for a weekend away. The house is cozy and has everything you need. We took advantage of the sauna and hot tub. We were greeted by the property manager and she showed us around the house and was great with our dogs. A very thoughtful welcome basket was waiting for us full of local eats and beverages. This house has everything you need to have the best time away!

Wonderful family winter getaway!
We just returned from a wonderful family weekend at the beautiful Highland House just north of Owen Sound. It was a winter wonderland at this beautiful log cabin home, beautifully decorated and outfitted for a relaxing and very special weekend. The 4 large bedrooms upstairs were more than comfy for our family of 8 and the hit tub and sauna extra bonuses. The large very well outfitted kitchen had everying we needed for great family meals and the outdoor pizza oven was fantastic! We had wonderful walks on and around the property and great cross country ski outings to a nearby conservation area and to the groomed trails at Massie Hills. Our host was so friendly, communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. A warm personal welcome and generous gift basket started off the weekend. Thank you for helping us create wonderful family memories...the best rental experience...we will be back!!

Another great experience!
This was our 3rd annual girls weekend experience at the beautiful Highland House and it was as wonderful as ever! Any questions you might have leading up to or during your stay are promptly answered by hosts David and Pauline and the Property Manager Annette is there to greet you when you arrive. Friendly and welcoming, this team really goes above and beyond to ensure your getaway is perfect in every way. The property itself is stunning with multiple outdoor areas (we LOVE the large covered front porch), fire pit, beautiful new hot tub and an outdoor cooking station with pizza oven! Inside there is plenty of room to roam with a nicely stocked kitchen, spacious family room, 5 comfortable bedrooms plus a bonus room on the lower level. Thank you David, Pauline and Annette. We will definitely be back!

Amazing Girls Getaway Weekend!
Our hosts were prompt and patiently responsive to all our questions. It was obvious that they took great care and pride in Highland House. On arrival the property manager, Annette, welcomed us with a tour of the house and necessary information. We found this really helpful. Everything about the property was immaculate, in good working order and the kitchen (indoor and out) was well equipped. All the beds were very comfortable! Our hosts had thought of many extra touches that were very appreciated; linens were high quality, so many thick towels supplied and cosy throws to wrap in on the cool mornings enjoying our coffee on the front veranda. Even a thoughtful welcome basket was waiting for us on the kitchen counter! We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by David and Pauline

Host profile image
Highland House was purchased as a gathering place for generations of family and their friends to connect and to retreat from city living, even for a short time, in order to share experiences that are rooted in nature. Inspired by surroundings reminiscent of the Scottish highlands, Highland House is a touchstone to the owners’ ancestral connections to land and sea.
