Norfolk County Backus Woods Hotels

"This place is a gem! We needed a peaceful escape from the city and we chose this retreat due to its proximity to provincial parks. The cabin was immaculately clean, cozy and welcoming. It's even nicer in person. The king sized bed is very comfortable. We really appreciated how well stocked the property is, from extra blankets, to a spare flashlight, dishes, firewood, pans, extra chairs, and even water sandals for the shower. There is a portapoty conveniently located right outside the cabin, an outdoor cold shower, and a full 3 piece washroom with a warm shower just steps away. This cabin is very private and surrounded by trees. Our stay was in the spring and it got quite cold at night. There is a small wood furnace but it doesn't do much to heat up the cabin, so I would recommend bringing an extra duvet if you're visiting in the colder months. The host was very responsive and helpful. Overall, we had a great stay. This cabin is good value for the money and we're looking forward to visiting again."

"The unit was great and Chris is a wonderful host. Definitely recommend "

"Clean, great layout, close the beach! Definitely would stay here again."

"The house is all new construction throughout with perfect furnishings, decor, and accoutrements. The beds are very comfy with comfortable sheets and blankets. A fireplace and piano fill out the ain floor livingroom with windows everywhere open to acres of land. The bathrooms are all wonderful with lots of hot water and big fluffy towels. Feels like a resort when you step out of the shower. The kitchen was full of utilities, including pots, pans , cookware , and utensils. We made alot of meals in the massive kitchen which is full of all new appliances. We enjoyed the massive farmhouse dining table for several meals.The large property offers lots of opportunities for hiking of all challenge levels. Saw all kinds of wildlife, including deer, turkey, rabbits, and birds. The creek offers a fun destination for hiking. Beautiful place and will be back!"

"The home was very cozy and very neat and nicely decorated. The place was spacious with a fully stocked kitchen and a nice dining area. We loved the outdoor area with a firepit and beautiful walking trails. We were close to the wineries and we had a great time at the Lighthouse Theatre.We highly recommend this beautiful place. Our host was great to communicate with ."

"Don’t recommend this stay. It is set up as a large party accommodation space, however, they are very unforgiving if anything breaks. If you do stay, I recommend taking photos of how the space was left to ensure you aren’t charged for damages you are not responsible for. Unfortunately, the aftermath of our stay left a bad taste in our mouths and we are unable to recommend this stay."

"Karen was very easy to deal with. Great communication. The kitchen was well stocked and the rental was very clean. The entire process was easy. We had a very relaxing few days. "

"The cabin was cute but not as nice or clean as pictures. The worst was beds had been slept in as if someone had just left! No top sheet so I am sure blankes were not laundered either. Bbq was a joke, missing a grate and tank empty and not even connected so no way to cook a meal even if we had stayed! Not sure if this is on a campground there was a trailer close by. The bathroom is in separate building, probably shared, it had no toilet paper and bath tub had insects in it. We left and stayed in closest town hotel. I informed the owner who had been out of town and he promptly refunded us. I suggest he changes his lockbox number after each booking and get a new cleaning lady. He was kind enough to offer a free stay but we kindly decline. "

"No pictures about no access to water. Sing with rules not same like rules on website. "
