Discover Barrie's #1 Chalet Vacation Rental
Looking for a peaceful place to unwind, or a base for your ski vacation? Perhaps a getaway with friends and family? A great location to create a film, or stay when visiting family nearby and they don’t have space for you to sleep! Barrie's #1 Chalet vacation rental looks forward to channeling your inner tranquility while being close to your favourite pastimes. Way better than a hotel room, for not much more money. Come prepared for a great night’s sleep!
Relax in the Chalet’s quiet environment in a mature neighbourhood nestled just steps away from a beach, park, playground, dock, and walking & biking trails. Ski areas are 20, 30, and 60 minutes away, and the restaurants, marinas and night life of Barrie are just a five minute drive or less.
At Barrie's #1 Chalet Vacation Rental, we are dedicated to providing an exceptional experience for our guests. Our passion for hospitality and attention to detail ensure that your stay is comfortable and memorable. Whether you're looking for relaxation or adventure, our chalet is the perfect choice for your next vacation.
Things to Note When Booking:

-
For seasonal pricing, please click here.
-
We are pleased to offer our guests the use of a private salt water pool (heated from late June to Labour Day weekend) in a private fenced-in back yard. We also have access but rarely use it. It is unsupervised, so guests are responsible for the safety of children and other users of the pool.
-
Maximum capacity of the chalet is five people, with two queen-sized beds and a spare mattress with bedding to accommodate a fifth person.
-
No parties or events in the chalet. However, if guests would like to have a couple of family members or visitors, or you have a special event such as a film shoot, that can be arranged with prior notice.
-
The owners, a professional empty-nest couple, live on the same property in a separate home about 25 metres away from the Chalet. We respect our guests’ privacy, but you may see us around from time to time. We occasionally use the garage and office beneath the chalet, and are happy to help if you need anything.
-
Two parking spots are available for guests.
-
All booking requests are vetted prior to acceptance. The Chalet is a very nice space, and we are selective about our guests in order to ensure it remains that way! A fully refundable damage deposit of $500 is requested upon booking.
-
Cancellation policy is 100% refund if two months before arrival, and 50% refund if 30-60 days prior to arrival.
-
Discounts for stays of 30 days or more are available.
-
We have totally enjoyed hosting several hundred new friends from Toronto to Poland to Singapore over the past three years, and hope to add you to the list!

Meet Your Hosts!
Gwenaele and Dave are the proud creators and owners of the Barrie Chalet. After many long hours spent carefully curating (hmm, is painting and shoveling gravel curating too?) the masterpiece that is now the Barrie Chalet, they are pleased to share their space with friendly and responsible guests!
​
Gwenaele and Dave live on-site, and will pass along a friendly greeting if you happen to cross paths.
​
We hope you enjoy your stay!
