Tucked in the heart of Halton Hills, our tiny house, is a handcrafted gazebo-style cabana nestled beside a scenic water stream and surrounded by 16 acres of private forest. Located just 45 minutes from Toronto, it offers the perfect blend of serenity and convenience. Enjoy a peaceful river with a waterfall, abundant wildlife, and natural beauty, while staying close to local shops, restaurants, and amenities. The Space: This tiny house offers stunning forest and water views with a cozy, open-concept design. Inside, you'll find: • Kitchenette: Equipped with essentials, including a toaster oven, electric cooktop, French press, Starbucks coffee, teas, and basic condiments. • Living Area: A convenient sitting space with a bar countertop overlooking the river. • Sleeping Area: A full-size mattress covered with a waterproof sanitize cover with a couple of blankets and pillows will be provided in the sleeping area. Hosts recommend that guests bring their own towels, bedding sets, or sleeping bags. The mattress is double or full size. • Bathroom: Since the tiny home is off grid there is just a sink with a faucet pump and a compost toilet. There is no shower. • Climate Control: A heat pump system ensures comfort with both heating and air conditioning. Explore nearby conservation areas like Limehouse, Silvercreek, Terracota, and Rockwood for hiking, canoeing, snowshoeing and more, or simply relax by the dock and soak in the tranquility of this one-of-a-kind retreat. This tiny home is a really perfect shelter that can serve different purposes such as a base camp for photographers, and influencers, that work enjoying outdoor activities, for example.Tucked in the heart of Halton Hills, our tiny house, is a handcrafted gazebo-style cabana nestled beside a scenic water stream and surrounded by 16 acres of private forest.

Please note, our friendly Alaskan Malamute, Luna, may make an appearance during your stay. While our home is visible through the trees, we respect your privacy and strive to provide a peaceful environment. The main house is located at the same property so guests will share the outdoor common areas of 16 acres of land with the host, that lives also at the property, and other guests that sometimes are staying in other accommodations.

ARKA did not disappoint. It's a beautiful location with the sound of the creek and the views of nature. The house itself is cozy and has everything you need. Host Hernan is very friendly and welcoming. I would love to come back one day.

Perfect setting to knit & read!
ARKA, Tiny House
We loved our stay! The workmanship in this tiny home is top quality — every detail feels so well thought out. It’s cute, cosy, and perfectly climate-controlled, making it easy to relax together. The gentle sound of the nearby waterfall was so soothing, and thanks to the excellent construction, we could easily quiet it when we wanted complete silence. The space had all the amenities we needed, from a coffee maker to a hot plate, so we could enjoy quiet mornings in. The perfect setting for catching up on some reading and knitting. A big thank you to our wonderful host, Hernan, and his charming dog Luna for making us feel so welcome. We’ll be coming back for another getaway!

Absolutely Magical Getaway – A Perfect Blend of Nature and Comfort I can’t recommend this tiny house retreat in Halton Hills enough! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful seclusion and natural beauty that surrounds this handcrafted gem. Nestled in a forested 16 acre property and perched beside a serene stream (which actually flows right beneath the firepit deck!), the entire space feels like a hidden sanctuary. At night, the crackling fire, the soft string lights, light breeze and the gentle sound of water created a truly magical atmosphere. The house itself is impeccably designed – cozy, modern, and stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Large windows frame the forest outside, and thoughtful touches like a well-equipped kitchen, clever storage, and a desk with a view made it easy to relax and unwind. The manmade dock on the stream gave us the opportunity to bask in the sun and wade in the water when necessary. Definitely made for relaxing. A huge shoutout to our host, Hernan, who was fantastic from start to finish. He greeted us warmly and gave us a clear, helpful overview of the property. His suggestions for nearby hiking trails and conservation areas were spot-on – we especially loved exploring a trail that ran throughout the property. If you’re looking to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature without sacrificing comfort, this is the place for you. Can’t wait to come back!
