Welcome to Hills! We're excited to start your adventure of Meaford and the South Georgian Bay area!
You will feel right at home in this converted dairy building. Hills offers 4 units identified by Hike, Bike, Ski and Paddle. You will be staying in the "Hike" unit: a second floor, two bedroom apartment with a kitchen and open living/dining area with large windows that let in lots of natural light. Prepare gourmet meals in the fully stocked kitchen. Many kitchen staples are provided (e.g. tea, coffee, condiments, food wrap, tinfoil etc.) so you will feel at home. The refinished dining table has seating for 4 and is the perfect place to have a family dinner followed by a games night. The living room contains a comfy couch to sink into to watch Netflix or read a book while enjoying time away.
Recently renovated, the apartment is very fresh and welcoming. Up a couple of stairs features 2 bedrooms with queen beds with Endy mattresses for a relaxing nights sleep. Each room also has a dresser and small closet to hang your belongings. The full bathroom features an original brick wall next to the washer/dryer.

Guests staying at Hills will undoubtedly want to take in all the Georgian Bay area has to offer. Hills will soon be offering hourly electric bike, pedal bikes, paddle board and e-scooter rentals.

The Meaford area can be enjoyed year-round! Head out for an adventure biking, hiking, boating, or take the short 25 minute drive to Blue Mountain for some skiing. Return and freshen up to take a stroll downtown to one of our favourite restaurants or down to the waterfront and sit and watch the sunset. Retire back to the apartment for an evening of comfort.
The building is across the street from Bighead River which feeds into Georgian Bay. Daily walks around town can find locals fishing in the river or off the docks. We believe in supporting local, and have partnered with the neighbouring Craig Gallery to feature local artists throughout the apartment. All of the soaps and cleaning supplies are provided by The Keep Refillery consisting of all natural, plastic-free products that actually work!
You will have access to the entire apartment and listed amenities, which includes the 2 bedrooms, 1 bathrooms, the kitchen, living room and dining room, all for your use. Feel free to use the laundry machines. The stairwell to the apartment is shared with the other 2 apartments on the second and third floors, but only you and those guests will have access to it.
All the units are managed by our cohost Kylie. She travels all over Southern Ontario so she’s generally not available in person but is only a quick message or phone call away to help you with anything you might need! Most of the time we will not be available to meet with guests but don't hesitate to contact us. We are still getting up and running but someone may be in the store to assist you as well.
