Sweetwater Retreat Cottage B&B

Our cottage is located on Sweetwater Farm nestled in the Cranberry Valley. Private and secluded, adjoining our 40 acres with south-west exposures and valley views. Relaxing and peaceful location on a quiet no-through road. Perfect getaway for couples and families. Located near walking trails; Mt. Erskine out your back door & Mt. Maxwell around the corner. Our cottage only 7 minute drive from the main village of Ganges and all amenities.
Be sure to drop by the farm distillery Sweetwater Distilling Co. - down the road at 360 Toynbee Rd.

Cute little cottage with lots of room for a family of four. It had everything we needed and was stocked with a few fresh groceries when we arrived, which was a pleasant surprise. Would definitely stay here again!

Clean, bright, and well-equipped; has full kitchen (not shown in photos) and we were grateful to have a well-stocked fridge (milks, butter, eggs) and fresh bread on our arrival! Very nice location, green all around, responsive hosts. Do check out their distillery too!

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and secluded cottage. The location was incredibly quiet—just what we needed to unwind and recharge. The cottage itself was spotless, with super comfortable beds that made for restful nights. Fiona, our host, went above and beyond—very responsive and thoughtful throughout our visit. We also really appreciated the many amenities, especially the breakfast items that were ready and waiting for us. A true hidden gem, and we can’t wait to come back!
