John met me before I could even get out of my RV. Loved the chat, history, and now hate those damned Gypsy moths and what they do to his trees! (thinking of buying John a flame thrower for those). :-) Parking is easy and convenient, and it's easy to level if you have jacks. 30A power a big big plus. The location is kinda remote then again but not at all... so quiet and dark at night that I had my best sleep in awhile. Yet, it's minutes away from anything you need. It's cold here now, snowed this morning, but I'd really like to stop back again in the fairer weather. I'm sure it's a beautiful property to explore, lots of trees, valley on the edge of the property, and a firepit nearby the BW Parking spot. Well done John and Janice. As another reviewer said, you are model BW Hosts for sure.

No doubt, and we are picky. Yet everything, from the communication and greet, to the accommodations, it's a model location that if we were in Harvest Host management, this is the spot to show as a model of what it's all about. And they should reward this couple with a huge incentive for their service to others.

Such a quiet and pastoral location. Lovely host, very accommodating and the site was perfect and level between the trees.

The host met me when I arrived and helped me hook up to the 30A. What a beautiful spot, so very close to the Bruce trail. With the leaves all bright colours, it could not have been a better weekend.
