Description

Country living, secluded amongst pines. Resident cat (Polly is adaptable to any circumstance). Location overlooks river valley,local fishing and bird watchers delight. Homestead is located on the riverbank and offers delightful views and panoramas (Child alert- steep cliff). House has 2 bedrooms, also, sleeping accommodations in finished basement. Gas fireplace on main floor, standard appliances and bathroom with shower/tub. Open concept living, large harvest table, cozy living area. Outside, 3 deck locations overlooking river valley, barbecue and fire pit. 2 bikes avaliable (I also have freinds for loaners), car availability negotiable.
If interested and pre-negotiated, I am willing to offer a secondary residence for your enjoyment that is situated 2.5 hours south on lake Erie (one of the Great Lakes). This secondary residence offers 3 bedrooms, finished basement, sleeps 6 comfortably, gas fireplace, air conditioning...located at Port Burwell Provincial Park.
On a Practical note, Canada is a very large country, Ontario is the 2nd largest province, in fact I commute 2 hours per day in total round trip to my place of emloyment, therefore you can expect travel time to reach destinations of interest. ie. 2.5 hours to Niagara falls, 2 hours to Toronto, 1 hour to Georgian Bay or Muskokas etc.

Some charming stores, awesome bakery and eatery. Local golf course, hiking and local range of activities (will provide you with seasonal local happenings).
Secondary location offers: provincial park, public beach, bike trails, close to popular lake-coast sites, oldest wooden lighthouse on Great lakes etc.

About Us

I am Canadian, I like to ski, hike, travel, run, bird-watch, garden and exist. My profession is coordinating services for persons with physical disabilities. I commute to the city of Guelph to carry out my profession. I am a mother of two sons, one who lives equally with me and his father, a cat and a dog who is also co-parented. I am interested in house-sharing to further nurture my desire to travel and experience diverse cultures. It is my hope to "house-share" with my family (my sons and mother). Note that my location also offers the option of a beach house located 2.5 hours south of my residence, located on lake Erie.
