Grey Havens is waste wise: we expect guests to conserve water and minimize garbage waste. Our lakefront property has lots of water recreation possibilities: swimming, kayaking, canoeing, fishing. Free boat launch for your watercraft. Lots of County Forest and Bruce Trailhead hiking opportunities close by. We are on a small biologically special lake, the source of the Styx River, that promises quietly inspired surroundings. We especially encourage writers and readers that will also appreciate our Little Free Library and the small Libraries inside each accommodation. We have quiet, segregated spaces inside or outside for writing or reading. You can purchase works by the author/host onsite. But we are not just about books. Four seasons accommodation (Cost and availability may vary by season): +Double-occupancy lodging suite (in our Timber frame home) with Private bathroom/shower and 12'x12' raised deck Seasonal, June to October: +Double occupancy Log Cabin (16'x12') with covered porch and side patio +RV emergency overnight site with electrics and non-potable water hookup We do provide: +Patio/deck (20'x25') with fire circle and lots of locally sourced wood +Dock and canoe/kayak launch (bring your own canoes/kayaks) +Wireless access +Motorcycle parking pads for touring riders (and fully equipped shop) We don't provide: +Enclosed cooking spaces or meal-making/eating utensils New sites coming in 2025 Emergency Overnighters: Walk-in self-sufficient Tent sites with non-potable water available While Grey Havens was the final chapter in Tolkien's trilogy, we continue creating a paradise here.

Awesome place to get away
What an absolutely awesome place! My hubby and myself were living the best of our life . Grey Havens is quiet and serene. We sat by the dock and watch the birds flying, beautiful scenery, water is so clear but we didnt swim its a bit cold. At night we lit the fire pit and barbecued after dinner we sat by the firepit and enjoy the stillness of our surrounding and best of all star gazing. The log cabin is beautiful and cozy with a rustic charm love it. We had a fantastic relaxing weekend but not enough, definitely were going back again. Thank you Grey Havens for the lovely time.

The view absolutely stunning. Spending a moment sitting sunset is wonderful. The host Marc and his wife is very nice and kind. Of coz their dog too. Patiently explain equipment and rules in site. If you are looking to spend a country side night next to a lake with your partner, this place is absolutely one of your choice.

Indeed a Haven! ♥️
Me and my husband booked the cabin for our anniversary and I must say the entire place is much more beautiful than the pictures. I regret mot taking enough leaves and spending more time there. Despite heavy rain and cold the cabin was super cosy, we managed to light the bonfire and kept it going for hours. The cabin has all the basic things you would need for the stay. Best part? Every single thought put into this beautiful location is eco-friendly. The host is very sweet and greeted us with warmth and informed us about everything at the cabin when we checked in. You wake up, see the best sunrise amongst tje chirping of birds and little squirrels running around. We can’t wait to come back.. A 100% recommendation to book here. DO NOT THINK TWICE.. you will enjoy every second!

If you enjoy a quiet, yet blissful location which sits on a lake ... This place is for you. The host is friendly and insightful which made the experience just that little extra "oomph". I will be returning 💯%
