I had a short but lovely stay at Dreamers Writing Farm. I stayed in the Munro cabin and it was cozy and very much as advertised. I had a chance to communicate directly with Kat before my stay and she was very helpful and accommodating. All in all, a great stay, and I look forward to staying at the Farm in the future!

If someone is looking for a peaceful weekend or getaway this is the place you should go, amazing coups and cottages with cozy interior including every basic need. It’s surrounded by nature and if you are a couple this place is just amazing for romance.

Thanks Neil! For future guests reading our reviews, please note that during the winter (November 1 to April 30th approximately), if you are staying in one of our bunkies (called a cabin on Expedia), our camp showers are not available as our pipes freeze. Two of our bunkies are winterized and we offer them as rentals in winter, and we supply water, soap, hand-towels and a wash-tub. There is also a very clean outhouse with a compost toilet adjacent to the winterized bunkies. If you have booked our Studio, then there is a full washroom and kitchen available for you - it is only the camp showers that close in winter. I am including this here as there isn’t another location where I can put this important information so that people see it before they book, although we do email this info immediately upon receiving a booking, and we allow cancellations with a refund if this is of concern to any guests who booked without knowing about our winter setup.

Perfect little place!
Really enjoyable stay. Easy to self serve for check in and getting any supplies, like firewood. The host even reached out after we left because we had forgotten something! Even got to see some farm animals! Great place to stay for many attractions nearby like caves, waterfalls, sauble beach, etc.

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time here and will definitely book again! Dreamers Writing Farm is peaceful, quiet and provides a great escape from the daily grind. The attention to detail with personal touches in our bungalow made us feel at home away from home. I have already recommended this retreat to family and friends and can’t wait to return!!! ❤️

For future guests reading this review - this is a bunkie, so it is very similar to camping. People who are familiar with and enjoy unique glamping experiences rate our bunkies highly. The bunkie’s at Dreamers are in excellent condition. If you are not familiar with camping, Dreamers is probably not for you. Our preference would be that people read our listing fully vs coming here and being surprised by what we offer and rating us negatively. If you like camping, you will love it here. If you do not like rustic experiences, please book somewhere else.

Amazing little place my girlfriend and I went on a go on a whim vacation just outside of our area and found this little gem. The Atwood Cottage was perfect for us. The firepit was close by and well built. The outdoor shower was a great little treat although Mother Nature was cheap on the air temperature but still did it. Thank you for the hospitality and friendly area we will definitely be back.

Perfect place for a weekend getaway! The bunkie we stayed at is called Wagamese. It is very cute and cozy. Looks the same as pictured. Comfortable bed with a desk and chair and a single sofa. It has a quaint feel like a small cabin in a forest. It also has a couple of chair in a small deck where you can sit and relax. There is also a small coal grill that you can use for bbq just right outside the bunkie. Note that the washroom and kitchen are separate but it has everything that you need. Towels, shampoo and soap. The outdoor kitchen has a microwave, electric kettle and milk for your coffee, which is included. There is also a bonfire area enough to accommodate a bigger group and picnic tables. As for the area, we love it as it is only 10 minutes away from Sauble beach and under an hour to Tobermory main town. I am already planning to go back!

Thank you so very much Kat and Ryan for conceiving of and creating this wonderful space. We really liked our Cohen Campsite. The next time we come back we will plan on staying for more than just one night. The "Secret garden" was very special. We especially liked the Doorway to Narnia.
