We have secured the entire Quarry for the BGOW Community to sit back and enjoy each other’s company and WE can’t wait to celebrate YOU! The cabins, micro-cabins and glamping tents are located on a magnificent 230-acre property with access to a sparkling blue, spring-fed lake (the result of a former limestone quarry). This incredibly unique and otherworldly landscape is just 1.5 hours from Toronto. This epic location is home to five lakeside cabins, 5 micro-cabins in the meadows and six glamping tents located in the heart of the forest. With dreamy vistas, fields of wildflowers & a diverse forest teeming with wildlife, this property truly has it all!
