Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Ontario

Our stay was more than we could have asked for. This Airbnb is a hidden gem. We’ve been to many Airbnbs all over the world, and I can tell you this one is really special. The garden is very spacious, with friendly little cows in the background. The inside is also spacious thanks to the beautiful high ceilings. The decor and original church aesthetic they kept makes you feel at home. The outdoor annex for extra guests is so cozy and cute!! it really comes in handy if you are more than two. This Airbnb truly has everything a household needs, from bug spray to doggy bags. We’re usually honest and critical about Airbnbs, and we don’t shy away from pointing out things that could be improved, but with this one, we truly have nothing bad to say. We would come back in a heartbeat!

My recent stay at the lake house was nothing short of magical. Nestled among towering pines, the location offered breathtaking views of the shimmering water, perfect for morning coffee on the deck. The house was charmingly decorated, with cozy furnishings that made it feel like a home away from home. The kitchen was well-equipped, allowing for delightful family meals, and the outdoor fire pit was ideal for evening gatherings under the stars. I particularly enjoyed the tranquility of the surroundings, making it a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. Overall, it was a refreshing retreat, and I can't wait to return!

The location of this home in downtown Elora could not be better! The log cabin is adorable and exactly as shown in the photos and description. It was incredibly clean and well-equipped for a lovely stay. The communication from host Andrew was excellent right from the beginning of the booking process until we checked out. Detailed suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area were spot on! Great location, great accommodations, and great host!

Jim, we had a wonderful 2-night getaway. Your home was even more beautiful than the pictures. Very clean with the best equipped kitchen I've ever seen. Worked perfectly for two couples and we enjoyed the BBQ and outside area every evening. Would highly recommend and hope to return soon.

This place is really cool. Comfortable, lots of amenities. Super clean and full of cool art, books, games and cookie dough. Sandra is a fantastic host. Wish we had allocated more time on our trip to spend multiple days. A sweet escape.

Has a real “Wow”factor as soon as you walk in the door. The upper bedroom area is amazing. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The back deck and yard, the view….Wow again. Along with the usual suspects we regularly saw Bald eagles, Osprey, Egrets and a Pelican. The surrounding area is beautiful. I highly recommend Red Door Retreat. Despite how wonderful it shows in the photos. It exceeded our expectations. Would not hesitate to return.

Place and host were very friendly we had great time there i would highly recommend this place

Exactly as listed. Beautiful place. Will be back.

Wow, what a beautiful home! Hosts were great communicators and were very thoughtful. The space was large, well appointed and very clean. We wished we could have stayed longer to use the beautiful outdoor space. Hope to return one day!

Excellent spot. Exactly as described: hot tub is indeed hot (and clean and works well), beds are very comfortable, it is easy manage temperature, the shower was great, and kitchen well stocked. All just perfect. Isabelle was very kind and helpful, too. Would recommend and would return!

Cozy spot. Modern bathroom.

Words can hardly capture the magic of Cathy’s BnB in Wasaga. From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we knew we were about to experience something special. This isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a destination in itself, a beautifully curated space that feels like stepping into the pages of an artist’s journal. The first thing that struck us was the atmosphere — peaceful, welcoming, and infused with personality. Every inch of the property is meticulously thought out and bursting with creativity. You can feel Cathy’s heart in every detail. It’s clear that this isn’t just a business for her — it’s a lifelong passion project rooted in artistry and hospitality. Cathy’s background in the arts and event world shines through in the most delightful ways. If you’re looking for something more than just a rental, if you want to stay somewhere that feeds your soul as much as it rests your body, Cathy’s BnB is it. Thank you so much for our stay!

Derek and Doreen were extremely friendly, responsive, and hospitable, everything in the suite and in the backyard was as shown, if not better. They even gave us a gift as we had mentioned our wedding day was the day prior, couldn’t recommend them and this place enough, we would book again in a heart beat, thanks for everything Derek and Doreen!

Such a beautifully decorated and well-appointed space for our last minute “mini-moon!” The apartment was spotless and had absolutely everything we needed, and then some. The thoughtful touches (robes, slippers, treats) were much appreciated. We loved the hot tub with the river view. Robert and Taurean were friendly and very responsive hosts! We would return in a heartbeat.

Will definitely be back. Very close to town, beautiful views, lots to do, super relaxing. The home is absolutely stunning and well kept.

Beautiful and comfortable home, nicely decorated. Felt like home away from home. The place is very cozy with a great view at the river, very relaxing. I have to say it has exceeded my expectations. Judi and Dave are very responsive. I would book again in a heartbeat.

Lovely stay as described! Would recommend

I went on a short road trip with my girlfriends and was very impressed with Susan’s home! It was a cold, rainy day and her fireplace made the living room warm and cozy. The place was immaculate and had lots of special touches like coffee pods and chocolates. The beds were comfortable and having two full bathrooms was greatly appreciated. Fergus is a lovely little town with lots of restaurants and charming stores within easy walking distance. We would definitely return.

This airbnb became such an iconic staple in our lives, the second time we stayed here, I proposed to my girlfriend. The place is so beautiful, it made us fall in love with the entire downtown of Port Hope. I’m so glad we found this place. It’s so beautiful and clean, it was a great place to be stuck in while it rained.

Peter was very quick with his responses and took the time to look up what was near the air bnb. The location was amazing since it was right beside a ski resort and 20 minutes away was the most beautiful skating trail in the forest. The air bnb itself was very nice. We cooked dinner and it had everything we needed and seasoning as well. The only thing would be the TV which we didn’t bring a laptop to connect to, which Peter did communicate to us we needed. It was a very great stay and Peter was ever helpful and kind ! Will come back in the summer for the lake.

The perfect little get away. The condo was super clean and updated, as well as homey/welcoming. Pino provided everything you could need. The view was beautiful. It was just what we needed for the best weekend.

Very beautiful place and surroundings. Host was very helpful with giving us advice and answering any questions we had

10 out if 10. Can’t wait to get back to this home paradise! Thanks for everything

We stayed at Mark & Lisa’s place for a night and had a great night. Mark’s very responsive and gave very detailed instructions before the check-in. The place is nice and has all amenities one needs. We didn’t get to use most of them such as BBQ, patio furnitures, dishwasher, coffee machine, etc , due to limited time there, but these are all available.
