About this property

A Greyt Escape at Innisfil Beach

Welcome to A Greyt Escape! Aptly named after our love of our retired racing Greyhounds, our self-contained guesthouse is located in the heart of Alcona in Innisfil, Ontario. Situated at the back half of over 1 acre of land, the guesthouse has its own yard space, small deck with sitting area, dining table with umbrella, BBQ and fire pit area. *note: outdoor yard space and above noted outdoor amenities are not available during the winter months.* It is partially fenced for privacy, but feel free to explore the rear of the property with your dog, or otherwise. You may meet our neighbourhood greeter Quattro who is our neighbour’s dog. She is friendly and may wander on to the property from time to time to say hello as the adjacent backyards are unfenced. We are all dog people here so it doesn’t bother us, but if this is an issue for you regardless of the reason (you have allergies, your dog doesn’t like other dogs or you plain old don’t want her around) we totally get it. Just let us know and her owners (who are kind and respectful people) will do their best to keep her from coming on the property. The guesthouse features a full kitchen with fridge, stove, OTR microwave, dishwasher, Keurig coffee maker, toaster and other small appliances, dishes, glasses, cutlery, pots and pans. The bedroom has a queen sized bed with medium-firm mattress, cotton bedding and down duvet, nightstand with USB charging ports and space to hang and store your clothing and other personal items. The bathroom has a new shower installed in 2024 with Kohler shower head. The unit also has heat, a wall A/C unit, and ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom for your comfort. All bedding and towels are included for your use, and extra pillows and blankets available if you need them. There is also dedicated wifi, IPTV and Netflix available, as well as board games and cards. You will also have your own free parking spot to come and go as you please. This space is perfect for much needed relaxation for a weekend getaway, extended vacation or romantic getaway for 2. Keep in mind there is only one queen bed on the premises, so the unit cannot sleep more than 2 adults and maybe a child.

The guesthouse is conveniently located only 1 km (2 min drive or 10 minute walk) from Innisfil Beach Park, Beach 5 and the dog beach at Beach 6. It is also located within walking distance to convenience stores, several pizza places, Bruno’s Bakery and restaurants. Other amenities such as coffee & breakfast spots, pharmacies, grocery stores, Canadian Tire, Dollarama and LCBO, gas stations and many local restaurants such are all within an approx. 5 minute drive. Friday Harbour is also a short 15 minute drive away where you can enjoy a walk on the boardwalk, shopping, or dining at one of the fantastic restaurants. There are also many options for golfers with The Nest at Friday Harbour, Tangle Creek, Innisbrook, National Pines and for a short 9 hole course, Allandale Golf Course. We are also a short drive away from the 400 Market and Gateway Casino/Georgian Downs Racetrack. There is no laundry on the property however there is a laundromat located only a 2 minute drive away.

This is not a party house, and group events and large parties are prohibited. Please be respectful and keep noise to a reasonable level at all times, but especially after 11 pm.

We expect our guests to treat our property with respect. We charge a very nominal cleaning fee which is meant to help cover the cost of normal and customary cleaning between reservations (laundry, vacuuming, etc.). In return all we ask is that you clean up after yourselves and leave our place in good condition when you leave. If excessive or deep cleaning is required, a $75 charge will apply post check out. Missing items or damages beyond normal wear and tear will also result in extra charges accordingly.

Absolutely no fireworks to be discharged on or around the property on any day, at any time.

Guests are only to have access to the property from the guest house onwards to the rear of guest house/back of property. No access to the garages or main home/yard.
If you have more than one pet or a pet other than a dog, please contact us with details as we may allow more than one pet or other pets on a cases by case basis.

Note: we live on the property but have our own house and yard space at the front half of the property, separate from the guest house and rear of property. You may see us coming and going as we park at the back of our house, but we will not bother you unless absolutely necessary or unless you need something. That said, feel free to ask us if you need anything at all!

Greyt Stay! May 20-27, 2025

Beautiful staycation cabin! Fully outfitted, lovely peaceful feel both inside and out. No noise and hosts were amazing! Cabin kitchen was stocked with everything you need for your stay (even baking trays, cutting boards and a few cooking essentials that would be used in a pinch if you forgot something!). Some extra supplies for furbabies! The 'fireplace' was a nice touch and was totally operational for both ambience and warmth. Bed was very comfy and had the best sleep! Shower had lots of hot water and very good pressure! Backyard/outside sitting area is fully private and very welcoming. We had rain for quite a few days during our visit, but once the sun came out my pupper and I were able to enjoy sitting outside.Beachfront was within walking distance in every direction, quiet and felt very safe staying alone. 5 min drive into 'town'. We also hit up a number of hiking trails all within a 20-25min drive from the cabin. Hosts were super helpful with questions prior to our arrival; very friendly, happened to came out to welcome us when we arrived, but other than that, we hardly knew when they were there! Easy to contact via the app and very responsive. Highly recommend this cabin and the hosts!Will be coming back for sure!!

Weekend in Innisfil

The cottage had everything we needed. Both bed and couch were very comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. One small issue which the host helped out with right away. Thank you Kara.

Comfy and Cozy

Absolutely stunning property. The cottage is updated, clean and super inviting. The bed is so comfortable. Everything you need (kitchen) is there. The cottage is "pet friendly" and I have major allergies to dogs etc, there was no sign of any dog hair etc and my allergies didn't bother me. This alone is a huge plus for me. Really enjoyed my stay.

A wonderful stay!

We had a great time at Kara and Kevin’s place ! The property was so cute and we loved the private outdoor space and the huge area for our dog to explore in the back. There were also so many thoughtful touches in the guest house including a basket of snacks and coffee pods, a supply basket for dogs (including treats, waste bags, towel for wiping paws,etc), and toiletries in case you forgot any of yours. Beyond that, the place was well equipped with everything else you’d need for your stay. The hosts were also very helpful, kind and responsive. Overall, we were very pleased and would love to come back!
