Fantastic stay

We had a fantastic stay at Shale Beach House during the holiday ski trip with friends and family. The chalet was much bigger than expected—spacious, well-equipped, and felt more like a real home than a cottage. Its location, just a five-minute drive to Blue Mountain Village, made it perfect for skiing and exploring. The hosts were accommodating, and the beautiful surroundings made it a true winter retreat. We loved unwinding in the hot tub after a day on the slopes, and the trail right behind the house was a great bonus. The creek running beside the house added to the peaceful winter atmosphere, making our stay even more special. With Georgian Bay just across the street, the views were stunning—I can’t wait to return in the summer for a different experience! Highly recommend the Shale Beach House and would definitely stay again!
