Privately Owned!!

For your privacy we accept email payment instrument.

Please note we NEVER update or keep current the calendar - for our property protection, and that of privacy for our guests.

NO response of inquiry will occur without a return phone number by which to communicate.

This IS the closest private property for rent to the main chalet (skiing/golf/adventure park) IN THE ENTIRE Valley. Nothing else comes close. REMEMBER .... you get what you pay for!! Totally Turn-Key (no 'extra' charges for linens, cleaners, tv, and the like as you will experience / read of other properties for rent; a VERY different lifestyle-experience from what we provide)

We've travelled with VRBO and appreciate ALL the homes people have opened to us. WE know what must be delivered for a professional experential joyous accommodations for you and yours!!

Welcome to a very special property, one of the 'original' homes, at The Resort in Horseshoe Valley. This home backs on to the 18th fairway of the lower 'Valley' course (there are two golf courses for you to choose from - sports, meals, etc. not incl. in pricing for rental). CORPORATE & EXTENDED STAYS AVAILABLE

**SPECIAL NOTE .... For those who don't know the area intimately, some people seem to think this couldn't POSSIBLY be as close to the ski hills as it is. It IS a five minute walk AT MOST to Resort Main Chalet, Inn and skiing/golf, et al. The photo of sun setting over the ski hills IS taken FROM the deck off Living Room w/JUST a Blackberry and NO zoom. It's a SPECTACULAR property folks. Property IS one of FOUR ONLY to fully face the ski hills and back on to golf course IN THE ENTIRE VALLEY. It is THAT beautiful here and unique to all other surrounds in the Horseshoe Valley Resort Area****

Also, please know that we are ALWAYS going to be far more private than staying at the Resort OR at the Inn, Carriage Hills, Lodges, etc., because it IS in a PRIVATE EXCLUSIVE EXECUTIVE property. Cleanliness, Decorum, Civility, Luxury Accomodations is what's offered to those spending time at this FABULOUS place!!!!

From the living room, kitchen ****(The KITCHEN has just completed a renovation/restoration including all new countertops, floor tiles, backsplash surround and STAINLESS STEEL Appliances throughout as at November 1st, 2011), and decking outback, you sit on that 18th fairway, AND face the ski hills, main Inn of the resort, and main chalet. There are plenty of teak wood chairs and tables for you and your friends, as well as an almost new Vermont Castings Gas BBQ for your endless grilling pleasures.

The BBQ also comes replete with utensils, cast iron pots, pans and griddles for you more 'experienced' grillers. There are fantastic trails for your outdoor pleasure, and an abundance of wildlife (from turkey, to deer, pheasant and the occasional badger, groundhog and squirrels).

At the Inn they have a full service spa, swimming pools, sauna, hot tub, racquetball, bikes for rent, gift shop and two really great dining restaurants. At the main chalet are more dining areas, rental equipment for skiing or golf, biking and Segway Tours, and another gift shop.

The Resort now has it's ADVENTURE PARK in full gear; Zip-lining, Zorbing, Wall/Rock Climbing, Mini-Putt, Skateboard Section, Horseback Riding, Segway Tours and the TreeTopTrekking (see resort for pricing).

The massive Copeland Forest trail system starts right at the foot of the roadway .... forget the gym; go hike, bike, ride, walk through the forest trails --- great Cross-Country area during Winter as well (see Cross-Country Main Chalet to purchase tickets for that seasonally).

Once you arrive, unless you need to head in to town, park your vehicle and walk everywhere you wish to go from the house. The 'Silks' restaurant at the Inn is four star dinning - fabulous! Just 5 miles up the road are two more restaurants, as well as a decent full-sized proper grocery store (with a prepared foods section), LCBO (liquor store) and BEER Store, Gas Station, Artisans, Medical Office, Dentist, Vetrinarian.

The property you will be in has been renovated LITERALLY from top to bottom over the past two years, even including the roof! The beds have rarely been used, and just purchased in the Fall two years ago (they are 5 k beds each - very high end - luxury comfort).

All beddings and linens are top shelf (laundry will be done for you - we are environmentally friendly and shall agree with you when you should wish your beddings washed, and towels during extended stays). All furniture is brand new, save a few choice antiques for character (like a desk built by my Great Uncle for my Great Aunt over 90 years ago!).

All electronic devices are high end (Panasonic Plasma TV, DVD Player, Sony Stereo, etc.) Every closet has quite a stock of solid wood hangers, pants hangers and the thicker plastic shirt hangers.

The fireplace is cozy and right at your feet in the Living room area. There is a stock of wood down the lower deck, to which you may help yourself and enjoy. Speaking of the Living room, that is where you will find a huge window facing the ski hills, and golf course, as well as the sliding glass door out to the back deck area which has all the teak outdoor furniture and BBQ.

The kitchen is complete with enough place settings for fourteen, as well as many oversized serving trays, bowls, etc. There are 'the usual' with toaster, juicer, measuring cups, ice-cream dishes, wine decanter, glasses a plenty, knives, cutting boards, vases, and on and on. Again, all items are new and top-shelf.

Please know that we are an environmentally appreciative lot and utilize services such as Bullfrog Power to aid in sustainability!

(For your safety, please note that there is a fire station not 3 miles away, an Ambulance station 7 miles, and a world class hospital just 15 minutes to the South in Barrie, and another approximately the same distance to the Northeast in Orillia

**Please remember this is our PRIVATE FAMILY HOME. For what ever the reason people seem to forget manners (presuming they have them) and present a stance of entitlement in this world. Don't bring that to our front door ... we won't permit those presenting with innappropriate behaviour, carriage, and the like, entry. We turn away full 90% of those WANTING to rent the property' for OUR own protection, and that for a future and returning guests. Know we videotape ALL contents in the property, of the property and surrounds; we also have an extensive external surveillence system. Boisterous activity won't be tolerated and is never acceptable in a family environment such as this. Drug and related WILL be greeted by the OPP. ANY desicration to our property will be charged against the damage security deposit; additions too will be invoiced and court proceedings facilitated.

About Pleased to answer any query!

Hello There!!!! .... and welcome to VRBO in Horseshoe Valley!!!! Family has been her for over a half-century now ... sort of know the lay-of-the-land a bunch :). Always lived 'in valley' and adore the intimacy yet openness that provides.

This fine property is right at The Resort (ski/golf/spa/hike/bike) and aside the CopeLand Forest Crown Land (Hunting in-season).

Been an outdoorsperson my entire life --- tough with the six-inch heels, so keep those for the charity galas, running in to town, and corporate meetings where I enjoy being on tippy-toes.

Skier of Mountains in Taos, NM, Mt, Hood, OR, CO, and so forth, Adore ALL things NC, TX, LA. Have great Texan and Louisiannan blood in my viens, which keeps me cooler than others in the heat of Summer. Freeze in Winter, yet love the snow and just wear two ski suits to compensate.

Love drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway, Dancing under the stars, being ever captured by the everything of life, astounded by human nature, and desirous of a fine REAL RED MEAT DINNER as often as possible.

Have acquaintences and loved ones around the world, and enjoy having 'visiting' folks come-back around when they can.

Can't stand chaos or clutter. Adore peace and diligence. Desire joy and hope for all, and will work hard to achieve :)

Started VRBOing years ago through a familial relation and haven't stopped ---- it's a fine way to 'share' that which you take pride (one would hope) and engage others' places for a different vibe when in a new (or returning) local.

Write/call when you want. Stay as often as you can. Know that this IS the best place in The Valley for family, friends and good peace of soul!!!

See you soon!

Would highly recommend. Stay here several years ago with family and decided to return for a ten day stay. Visited Toronto and several places we have wanted too from our last trip. Skiing was good for the time of year, yet cold (at least for us it was!) Not sure if we'll get back there yet if we could we'd stay at their place without hesitation. Just a note; it fills up pretty quickly (we missed the part of the February we really wanted wit that Family Day weekend they have). Good people own this home and care about who stays with them and how they are taken care of., Rare commodity these days and greatly appreciated.

My husband and I, along with a few friends, rented the home in September. We had a wonderful time. The home is spacious, with a wonderful view and a great kitchen for cooking. The house was very clean. We were running a race in nearby Oro and it was an excellent base.
We've rented other vacation homes previously and we were initially worried by the 100% down and the owners strong desire for privacy. We've known people who were scammed previously and are generally cautious when putting 100% down. However, when we explained are concerns, they were very understanding and happily provided the additional information we requested. We really appreciated this and want to assure other cautious vacation home renters not to be dissuaded by this policy.
When we arrived, the owner was very accommodating and helpful (even though we were late arriving and she had a pressing engagement), and went above and beyond giving us a full tour of the facilities. The home is in a beautiful location overlooking the golf course, within a 5 minute walk to the lodge.
Be warned, there is no wi-fi at the house and the wi-fi at the nearby lodge was not good. This proved challenging for my husband and some of the other guests.
However, if you are looking for a beautiful, spacious home to get away from it all, I highly recommend the house and we hope to return another time.

Owner's Response: Hello there running people! Thank you for your good words, and glad as always that you enjoyed your time in our private family property. I am SO with you regarding people, their privacy amd safety of it all. As we chatted before you booked here, and then on phone and at arrival, it's FASCINATING what human being DO to one another and their 'stuff' sadly in this world. In order to keep OUR GUESTS in a PRIVATE and EXECUTIVE place we MUST keep and uphold ALL the discriminating levels of propriety. One way in which we do, as you know, is to NEVER update the calendar; although it's extra 'work' for us, it's a solid quell on any of those whom have 'un toward' intention. Though The Valley and Resort areas are VERY safe-and-sound, the reality of big-world/transient-travellers in the area of the Resort IS and CAN be real.

Just FYI regarding the Wi-Fi to those whom wouldn't have been privy to our convo .... as stated in the ad, and to ALL, it is NOT available to our guests. It isn't a 'loss promised item'. We just can't offer do to THOSE whom ABUSED it in the past; it's yet again as in life, THEM-whom-wreck-it-for-everyone ---- except for our extended stay and corporate guests for whom we can engage new service for as part of their stay.

If you and yours do not pass this way again, many blessings and THANK YOU!

Please read before attending this property. We are posting it for our dear lovely friends who own this wonderful place. For many years these people have opened their property when they can to generally complete strangers. This is different when it is your HOME and not a business like a hotel. We weren't quite sure about what they were doing although understood how they themselves had been introduced to it by relatives, and then traveled using VRBO.

It still seems very much as if TRUST and a big dose of it, comes in to play here. Having the care and guts to open yoursled and your property up is a lot. They have made many good acquaintences through the years, and even a real friend or three. There's also been the bad of it, though seemingly small from whatever was discussed (and they may have been understating or never disclosing what they've encountered). We do know of the hockey boys and issues surrounding, as example.

For what ever the cause in the world today people seem to have an entitlement attitude and cadence in their demeanour and speech. Actions and words speak and exist loudly together quite often. Just this weekend past whatever the group or family in the home they were EVER disrespectful of their fully understood environment. The noise carried on far too loud and well in to innappropriate hours. Noise of that level is actually NEVER produced here. We are a civil good set of people and it is expected as the homes are not some trashy loud bar that it be respected. Children are here, and elderly for crying .... common sense is beig lost.

The woman of the house had to return from a private family matter from the USA to take care of her guests here, and lovingly assure us neighbours the disrespectful actions would cease. We waited for hours for the guests to hopefully look at a clock and close the back door. They didn't. The authorities were advised. It is our understanding this was the first time anyoe had to do so and it is an unfortunate state.

Why would persons go to a private family area, beautiful, peaceful and tremendously loved, and be tasteless and crass? We now hear from our dear friends the owners that cigarettes were founds about the property and left for them to dispose of. One of the owners just survived a seven year battle with terminal illness and mustnever encounter tobacco. It's in the advertisement here, discussed in email before you rent, and so forth, and yet these people smoked. What on Earth!!!
