Alvina (OWNER)in concert with Gin (MANAGER) have teamed up to create one of the astonishing experiences in the rental world. The property was more than we could have expected. Their attention to detail was beyond. Their support during the stay was “wow”. Thank you very much, to the both of you, for helping create one of the best family adventures to date. We will be back. Thank you.

Weekend Getaway
Where to start... This property is truly amazing! There's so much to do that you'd probably need to stay for a week to get it all in. Three couples enjoyed a weekend get away at the Fat Raccoon on a beautiful fall weekend. In addition to the many activities at the property, we also took in Port Rowan, Long Point and a 2.5 hour walk in the adjacent conservation area. All were stunning. Evenings were also a highlight with a great space to prepare dinner and also to hang out and enjoy a fire. Thanks Alvina and Gina for being great hosts!

Great property
We had a small get together due to Covid, however the property would be wonderful for large gatherings as well. Nice to have a real fire on the cooler fall days. Hospitality was perfect.
Only issue with some guest is there is no regular TV. Only Netflix or subscriptions.
Otherwise. Perfect

Fall Getaway
Everything was perfect. The property was very clean and extremely well equipped. The kitchen had everything a chef could desire and we all agreed that this was the best kitchen our group had ever enjoyed. Bedrooms on the second floor were very nice - linens, towels, comfy socks - and well furnished. The house was really nicely furnished and every comfort was thought of. We all enjoyed that party barn and the games of fussball, snooker and shuffleboard were a real hoot. All in all, a top notch rental.

Amazing stay and venue!!!
The Fat Racoon Farm is an absolutely amazing property!
The house: you will find everything you need here. There are games, movies, all the kitchen supplies, many comfy seating areas, huge fridge/freezer, lots of towels, etc etc. They have everything! Front and back entrance and a gym too
The location: Fat Racoon Farm is on a perfect location in Port Rowan! On the highway is is easily accessible from many different attractions in the area. It is 10 mins from Long Point and Turkey Point Park. 10 min drive to many wineries, Backus Heritage Site and Long Point Eco Adventures. Close to Port Rowan town.
The space: 4 beautiful bedrooms upstairs. Great beds and windows. One bedroom downstairs. Great common areas and pool table in basement! Outdoor screened in patio is amazing and such a great spot for dinner or hanging out!
The owner: Alvina is an outstanding person!! She was so incredibly helpful with everything we needed and accommodated many requests. She always answers promptly and is understanding
The property: there is a small fire pit in the patio and a really big one outside that is awesome!! Plenty of Outdoor seating, beautiful gardens, lots of room for games and surrounded by beautiful fields! The party barn is a great addition with kids toys and adult games. Wrap around driveway is really nice
The venue: In addition to staying here for a week we also used the Fat Racoon Farm for our outdoor wedding!
Alvina was a great assistance with this and we worked with her to book everything including an outdoor bathroom, large event tent, furniture rentals etc. Alvina helped us with lighting, decorating and parking on the day of our wedding. We had 50 people in attendance at our wedding and had plenty of room! The flowers and property were beautiful and have so much potential for decorating, and setting up for an event.
I would highly recommend the Fat Racoon Farm for staying with family or friends. It is also a fantastic location for a beautiful outdoor event such as a wedding, family reunion, party, etc. AMAZING PLACE!! 10 stars!!
