About the host
Hosted by Ixchel
My husband and I are local hosts who truly love creating a welcoming and comfortable space for our guests. We live nearby in Pike Bay after many years in Caledon, where we built a life centered around nature, family, and a self-sustaining lifestyle on our farm with animals and gardens.
My partner runs a hoisting engineering business, and I work in education, and together we share a passion for hosting, hiking, exploring, and spending time outdoors with our dogs. Hosting allows us to share a place that we genuinely love and enjoy ourselves.
We take pride in offering a clean, thoughtfully prepared, and relaxing environment where guests can unwind and feel at home. We’re always available if needed, while also respecting your privacy so you can fully enjoy your stay.
Why they chose this property
We chose this area because of its peaceful atmosphere, natural beauty, and proximity to some of the most special spots in the Bruce Peninsula. What we love most is how quiet and uncrowded it feels, especially compared to busier destinations.
Just minutes away, there’s a hidden, calm beach that feels almost private, with shallow water that’s perfect for families and ideal for relaxing, swimming, or even windsurfing. The sunsets here are truly unforgettable, and the surrounding nature makes it easy to slow down and disconnect.
You’re also close to Sauble Beach, Tobermory, Sauble Falls, and the Bruce Trail, which offers some of the best hiking in Ontario. It’s the perfect balance of accessibility and peaceful retreat.
