About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Country Nook. A relaxing retreat from the city.

A peaceful country retreat nestled alongside a beautiful forested area, this unique space was once a barn and has since been thoughtfully converted into the welcoming getaway it is today. A small screened-in patio off the back is the perfect place to enjoy quiet mornings surrounded by nature.

Scenic hiking trails are located just a 2-minute walk away, and the world-famous Stratford Festival is only a 15-minute drive, making this an ideal escape from city life while still being close to local attractions.

The Country Nook is located right beside our home, yet offers a great deal of privacy. We live on the property and are always happy to help—please don’t hesitate to knock or send us a message if you have any questions or need anything during your stay.

Please note that there is no cellular service at the property. However, Wi-Fi calling allows your cellphone to function normally over Wi-Fi. With your opening message, we’ll send clear instructions on how to set this up prior to arrival.

We also have two large, friendly dogs who roam our property and are contained using an Invisible Fence system. They are not permitted inside the retreat unit. If you’d like to meet them, just let us know.

For security purposes, exterior cameras are in place facing the driveway and the Nook entrance. These cameras do not look into the unit and are used solely to monitor the property.

    Great hideaway - close to Stratford

    Very cool place.... We loved the screened in porch. All the comforts we needed. Very much in the country, but only 15 mins drive from all the stuff you might want in a small city like Stratford. If you want to meet them, the hosts' dogs WANT TO PLAY with you and they're adorable.

    Peaceful Stratford Stay

    My husband and I spent three nights during our time in Stratford to see some plays. It was a lovely spot outside of town but still close enough to access everything needed within ten minutes or so. We enjoyed the comfort and peace and quiet. The hiking trail just up the road was an unexpected bonus! We'd definitely stay here again.

    Beautiful cabin not far from Stratford

    The cabin was perfect for the three of us -- a couple and our friend -- because the two large bedrooms gave us privacy from each other. The cabin is equipped with everything one could conceivably need, right down to extra toothbrushes. It is stylishly decorated, bright, clean, and comfortable.
