The photo’s of this airbnb do no do it justice, it was a great location, a stunning outdoor space and a beautifully renovated and well kept interior. Would happily stay here again!

The Bickle Hill House was a great spot for our group getaway (our group’s top pick ever)! This charming farmhouse retreat had amazing views across the countryside, with lots of space to relax inside and out. We really enjoyed the saltwater pool, hot tub and games room. They kept everyone happy, and the well-equipped kitchen made cooking easy. Doug and Kiki were super nice and quick to help, making us feel welcome by being flexible with our group size. The guidebook they provided gave us solid tips on dining and things to do in Cobourg and Port Hope. The place was clean when we got there, and the guidebook was handy for figuring out the house’s quirks. We had a blast unwinding and soaking in the peaceful vibe, highly recommend it for anyone wanting a cozy rural escape. We’d definitely come back!

Bickle Hill is an absolutely wonderful property! Truly one of the best places I’ve ever stayed. The house is gorgeous, the rooms are spacious, and the whole space is very well appointed. The grounds are incredible and the games room kept our kids busy for hours on end. We spent many perfect afternoons by the pool, followed by dinner on the beautiful deck. On a clear day, the view to Lake Ontario is stunning. I could not have dreamed up a better place to spend a week with family.

Stayed at Doug and Kiki’s place for a weekend getaway with some girlfriends. The place was beautiful and looked exactly like the photos. The outdoor area has lots of room, lush gardens and shade. We loved the pool. Thanks for the stay!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Doug’s s place! The home was exactly as described — clean, cozy, and very well maintained. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making it easy and comfortable for us to settle in. The location was great, and communication with kiki was seamless throughout our stay. She was responsive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area and would love to stay here again in the future. Thank you for making our trip even more special!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The property looked exactly like the photos and included all the amenities as promised. The game room provided endless entertainment throughout the day and evening, while the hot tub, surrounded by charming string lights, created the perfect cozy atmosphere. The backyard was spacious, with stunning views that added to the experience. I’d love to return in the summer to take full advantage of the pool!

The Bickell Hill House is beautiful, the views are stunning and the property was gorgeous. Our group had a wonderful time during our stay. We enjoyed dining outside on the beautiful deck, and having a few cocktails by the pool. This house is great for all ages, the kids loved running around the yard and playing on the big swing, and the games room was perfect when it started to rain. The house is equipped with everything you need to make a nice meal. We would highly recommend this house, it’s peaceful and nicely put together! The host were great and answered all of our questions.
