Modern Day

Bed & Breakfast

Finding joy in the "Green Valley".

Our property is a one of a kind experience. Our self-catering suites are re-purposed shipping containers turned into beautiful suites. Enjoy a sunset over the Grand River in your private spa.

Tucked away along the Grand River we are the perfect blend of being away but also being home.  For the ones looking for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life.  Each suite has its own private patio complete with a Sundance spa hot tub, BBQ, and a bistro set.  Enter each suite to a tastefully decorated living space. Enjoy a glass of sparkling cider while watching a sunset over the Grand River, a home away from home.  Conservation land is the backdrop to your windows. During the day take advantage of the fly fishing location, riverside seating, giant chess set and so much more.  Walk the grounds, walk up the silo-turned-gazebo to overlook the 7+ acres. Take a short 4 minute drive to the picturesque village of Elora, ON. Shop at the local shops, enjoy fine dining, sit on a pub patio, watch the horse racing at the slots.  Visit the restored Elora Mill and Spa, or zipline over the Elora Gorge. If you are still looking for more we are 12 minutes to Fergus for the Fergus Scottish Festival and Templin Gardens. St Jacob's Farmers Market is nearby, with the St Jacob's Country Playhouse for the live theatre preformances. The world’s largest Maple Syrup Festival is just a short drive to Elmira, ON.  Guelph and Kitchener-Waterloo festivals are also within 30 min drive.

We had a lovely stay in the St. Jacob's suite. It was clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. We loved watching the sunset in the hot tub and eating take out from nearby Elora. The hosts were accommodating and so friendly. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Very nice cabins, they managed to fit everything in these tiny homes with brilliant layouts. Very nicely decorated and super cozy. One morning we watched a family of deer walking through the snow looking for food while we were having our morning coffee. It's located right on the Grand river which provides a beautiful view all year around. Highly recommend!

Just spent 2 days this week for my Birthday! Stayed in the Elora Suite and I have to say, everything was perfect! Quiet time to relax, binge some Netflix and enjoyed dining, drinks and the hot tub! Thank you Laura for being amazing and making sure everything was ready. The grounds were amazing and the privacy for our stay was amazing. Can’t wait to come back!

This is a wonderful place for a peaceful getaway. The property is beautiful, the suite was just perfect and the bed was very comfortable. The grounds were well kept and we had an amazing view of the Grand River. The hosts Laura and Will were available if we needed anything yet in no way intrusive. Their thoughtful extras were very much appreciated! Great location just 5 minutes to Elora and 10 minutes to Fergus. Both have shopping and restaurants. Would highly recommend Inner Joy Getaways.

    As parents ourselves we understand the difficulty in finding childcare.  However, most of our guests that choose to stay with us have come to getaway from little voices.  Therefore we primarily cater to adults only.

About your hosts

The Journey

It started with a thought, then a dream, then a reality!!! We have been on the most amazing ride of our lifetime.  It has brought us to the edge of the "Cliff's of Insanity"...literally! We are excited to share this adventure with you.

Your Hosts

Will and Laura Feenstra & family are your hosts.   They have grown up here in the Centre Wellington community and loved it so much they decided to raise their family here. Will and Laura have four children, and have been married for over 22 years. Will is a youth counselor; he works along side youth that struggle with anxiety and depression. He sits with them along the river and guides them through the stress they are dealing with. Helping the youth to find hope and joy again in their lives. Laura has an interior design diploma and loves creating atmospheres that people can relax and enjoy themselves in. Combining the passions that both Will and Laura have for youth and couples, they decided to create not just another bed and breakfast to stay at but an experience that their guests can walk away from their property feeling refreshed and inspired in their everyday lives.

We were there with my husband and after hiking all we want to do was going back to the motel and spend time relaxing in our room with a breathtaking view. I highly recommend this place if you don’t like hotel chains or big places. We’ll definitely go back.
