Property Features and Amenities
During your stay in one of our Dreamers accommodations, visit our Secret Garden in the woods, experience a shower under the stars, enjoy our outdoor kitchenette, or hang out with our Three Little Pigs, and our dwarf goats, the Brothers Grimm.
At the Dreamers Writing Farm, experience the heartwarming company of our mini pigs and Nigerian dwarf goats, residing in a large paddock at the back of our property. Meet The Brothers Grimm, a group of playful goats named Gus, Gunther, Griffin, Harry Potter, and Huckleberry Finn, inspired by the Brothers Grimm fairytales. Alongside them our three little pigs embody the beloved folktale, “The Three Little Pigs.” Our pigs go by the delightful names Cinnamon, Sugar, and Cocoa, earning them the endearing nickname “The Spice Girls.”
Hand-tamed and ever-friendly, these adorable animals adore human interaction and eagerly welcome pets and scratches. While they may vocalize their enthusiasm for dinner in the evenings, they soon settle down contently after being fed. Embrace the magic of these delightful companions, as they add a touch of whimsy to your Dreamers experience.
This was out second time staying at Dreamers and plan to make it a regular summer stay. The goats are so friendly and entertaining when we’re sitting outside. We love the location and can’t wait to come back!
~ Heather Neiser
Highly recommend. Check in was really easy. It was really clean and the bed was amazingly comfortable. The goats and pigs were so friendly. The location was close to Sauble Beach, but felt really private and secluded. Thank you Kat. Will definitely visit again in the future.

Discover the convenience of our Outdoor Kitchenette at the Dreamers Writing Farm. In our small tuck shop, find an array of snacks for purchase. Propane, charcoal, and firewood are also available for sale. We offer a selection of BBQs – charcoal, propane, and electric – along with a microwave, kettle, and Keurig, making outdoor cooking a breeze. A garden sink will soon be added for added convenience. For storing food, we recommend tent and bunkie guests bring a cooler, as fridges are not provided except in our Dreamers Studio accommodation. Complimentary coffee and tea are both available, along with milk, cream, sugar, and sweetener. We offer coffee cups and BBQ utensils, but ask that guests bring their own cookware and dishware. And of course, all water at Dreamers is potable, ensuring your well-being during your stay. After you’ve unleashed your culinary creativity, enjoy your meal at the patio table under the covered kitchenette gazebo or at the picnic tables near your accommodation.
This spot was perfect! Very close to Sauble Beach, Tim hortons, and 1 hr drive to Tobermory! The property was maintained very well. Clean bathrooms, clean linen and a nice little outdoor kitchen. I would highly recommend this place to stay!

Enchantment meets literature in our captivating Secret Garden nestled within the 3-acre woods of the Dreamers Writing Farm. Inspired by the timeless tale of The Secret Garden and the magical realms of Narnia, this literary-themed oasis beckons you to step through a door nestled between two ancient trees, reminiscent of Narnia’s passage. Once inside, you’ll discover a lamppost illuminating the woods, just like in the cherished book series.
Adding to the garden’s unique charm, a Phone of the Wind awaits, offering solace and connection, much like the one that emerged after the Japan Tsunami. Surrounded by vibrant flowers, elegant hostas, and enchanting swamp roses, the garden boasts ornamental trees, a concrete garden bench, and a wide hammock for serene relaxation. Various delightful garden displays are scattered throughout, inviting contemplation and creativity. Accessible via a well-marked path that commences with a signpost featuring literary destinations, including a prominent marker for the Secret Garden itself, this idyllic sanctuary awaits to inspire your imagination and writing endeavors.
My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at Kat’s for a couple of days. Everything was as advertised, and we especially loved the little farm and the secret garden walk. So much magic! We’d definitely come back 🙂
