Easy Cottage Access

I was talking to someone about the new Blog an they had mentioned the neatest idea that they had seen on a rental cottage in Ontario.

For security reasons, instead of hiding the cottage key in the flower pot or BBQ, the owner installed one of those keypad type entry systems that you can purchase from just about any Home Depot.

A couple of days before their departure, the vacation property owner called them with the code that they should use to get into the cottage.

Now instead of worrying about a unauthorized vacations, the property owner / manager just changes the pass code to the door from time to time.

I think this is a great concept for any villa, cottage or B & B.

Huntsville, Ontario in the Snow

Huntsville, Ontario! What a beautiful place to stay. Even if you don't snowmobile it's worth the drive up to Huntsville in the winter. There are quite a few bed & breakfasts as well as some fantastic rental condo-hotels. The kind that are more like a resort then a hotel.

When you are there, be sure to check out the snow-tubing and if you arrive for WinterFest you'll be in luck with even more events.

After your outdoor activities theres nothing like sitting by a fireplace watching the snow fall on evergreens from your picture window.

Here are some private places to rent in Huntsville or look into hotels and resorts. Now matter what you do, Huntsville is a great place to relax in the winter.

And if you snowmobile, drag them up there. Check out the trail conditions in Huntsville here and remember you will need a license to ride on these trails!!

I'll be heading up there again this winter.

Parry Sound Ontario Resort

My family and I are frequent travellers travelling though out Ontario with our trailer. This is great for the summer months but as the seasons change the colder weather posses challenges.

This year we choose to eliminate our travel barriers, we started surfing the net to find reasonable accommodations in areas we would like see. Our first destination the Whitfield Resort right on Oastler Lake. The resort fit the budget and the area was amazing. The area is a hub for train activity but it makes for amazing train trestles as the tracks cut through the valleys and across the many lakes.

Stay posted for more adventures and neat findings.
