We have stayed at Brent's place twice before and have enjoyed our stay very much every time we've been. Great host and a great property for a family. Our kids especially enjoyed the hot tub and the ability to dine on the deck in the dining pavilion. We look forward to visiting again.

Great northern getaway.
Our vacation was genuinely epic, comfortable accommodations in well equipped cottage, 5 minute walk to sandy beach that boasted shallow water which was perfect for younger children. Location is close to hiking, kayaking, swimming, fishing and tourist attractions. Host is honest, reliable, courteous.

Red Bay Stay
Great experience. This is our second year renting the property. That tells you something. We hiked the Bruce for 5 days. Location was great. Hot tub after a day of hiking was wonderful. And sunsets at Red Bay were stunning.Lots of space for 3 friends. Highly recommend the place.
