Nestleton Waters Inn

I attended a Chef tasting menu event in November. This was my first visit here and certainly won't be my last! The venue is absolutely stunning and the food was phenomenal. The Chef came out before each course and discussed the thought behind the food pairings and preparation. He was witty, entertaining and clearly a gifted Chef. It was a wonderful evening with good friends and a memorable meal. Can't wait to come back!

We stayed here for 3 nights for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it!! The staff were very friendly, extremely polite and went the extra mile to make our stay memorable. Our steak dinner was incredible and cooked to perfect! The Chef came out to talk with us to ensure everything was to our liking. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and well kept. I highly recommend this little piece of paradise for a staycation or an evening away.

Words truly cannot accurately explain how amazing our wedding was at Nestleton Waters. We got married last weekend on Sunday August 15th and could not have asked for a more seamless and incredible experience, from start-to-finish. Navigating a wedding during Covid is stressful enough and then having to postpone our wedding made things that much more worrisome. Nestleton was so fantastic in helping us through the entire process and our wedding coordinator, Helen, and owner, Deborah, were so responsive to my countless number of emails. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to service, and we are so glad we chose Nestleton for our big day. Leading up to the event, they guided us through what we needed to focus on and kept us on the right track. They are a full-service wedding venue and really offer everything you can possibly need, in-house, apart from your suit and dress LOL. We chose different vendors for a few services (hair, makeup, photography) and Nestleton did a fantastic job guiding us through the timeline of the event and what types of conversations we need to have with these vendors. A few days leading up to the event, I had a million questions, and they were so quick to reply and were so on top of things. Our rehearsal at Nestleton was seamless and fun and made us that much more excited leading up to our actual wedding. The officiant, Gary, was fantastic and quite funny. He was so helpful in catering his words to what suited us best as a couple. Fast-forward to our wedding day, everything was flawless. The florist, Mike Gibbs, did such an incredible job and our DJ, David, was so wonderful and was a perfect MC. Helen and her assistants kept everything flowing so nicely, the venue, décor, food, golf cart drivers, bar staff, bedrooms, and setup was absolutely perfect. We had the best day ever. They put in so much effort to ensure it didn’t feel like a “Pandemic” wedding, and although they adhered to government rules to ensure our guests were safe, it really didn’t feel like a Covid wedding, and we were so grateful for that. The whole wedding went without a hitch and the after party in the Carriage House was the best way to end off the night – we had a blast. The next morning we had brunch with the guests that stayed at the Inn and it was delicious and filled with variety. They even were nice enough to serve us the extra cake that was leftover from the wedding. We loved absolutely EVERYTHING about our wedding with Nestleton and I would be happy to chat with any future bride interested in booking Nestleton for their wedding, if you have questions or want more details about how our wedding went. You can message me on Instagram at @chrissymccabe 😊 You will have no regrets booking this venue.

Love staying here. Each room has a unique theme with amenities that make this getaway location completely unique and tailored for each person. Beautiful manicured grounds surround the inn, perfect for intimate walks together as a couple. This location is also perfect for custom, private weddings under their gorgeous white tent complete with chandeliers. A culinary journey awaits you not just at weddings but also during your stay as their private chef and culinary team provide tasty delights and each month features a 7 course tasting menu for a special night away.

I went to an afternoon event at this lovely inn and had a chance to take in a tour of the rooms and the grounds. Set in lush landscaped gardens, beside a spring fed pond, It is the most beautiful, TASTEFUL well-appointed inn / wedding centre that I have seen in Ontario. Each room has a different theme with great attention to detail. Weddings can be held outside or in a large tent. We had scrumptious snacks, sourced from local farmers. The chef is pretty awesome. I am looking forward to our "Dinner date" here in October.

We attended a wedding and everything was wonderfully done. The staff were friendly and seemed to be having fun. There are so many different views that are beautiful and romantic. At night the lights shone thru the trees and the fountains. A beautiful place to get married, words are inadequate to convey the atmosphere of the facility. If you have the opportunity to go there for some reason, you will understand what I mean.

The experience at Nestleton Waters Inn was phenomenal. From the staff to the food and everything in between it was truly unique and exceptional. Every single guest that attended our wedding was blown away and taken back by the beauty of the Inn. Some even said they were coming back with their families because it was that breathtaking. I thought the canoe was pretty awesome, allowing us to get in that bad boy and take pictures was so cool. Not only did I get married, I also learned to row a canoe so now I can give lessons lol. Now on to the food, Chef Aaron Moss painted a masterpiece in the kitchen, the food was so delicious especially the beef brisket, I could not get enough. I wish i had brought a to go container and take some home for the next day. He was so friendly helpful and overall a classy gentleman that made the whole experience from the tasting to the menu selection very enjoyable. My bride and I also both took notice that Erik the owner was also helping the staff with serving and other duties and we were very impressed we believe that a successful business is successful because of its owners and we admire and appreciate the dedication that we saw. Big shout out to DJ Steve for keeping the tunes flowing and keeping the dance floor moving, great selection of music and had all the songs we asked for. As if the night couldn't get any better after the party was over and everyone was in bed I stayed out and sat by the water watching the sky because the view was incredible as i was there at 430am I saw a shooting star which made the night complete. I can't make this stuff up everything was incredible. This was one of the most incredible experiences I've had and I made a date to come back in a year and Cheff Aaron Moss will cook up another one of his masterpieces. Thank you all at Nestleton Waters Inn for making my wedding a truly remarkable experience, you are all forever a part of my life story!

My husband and I were married at Nestleton Waters Inn on September 12, 2020. From the first day that we met with the venue, the team at Nestleton Waters Inn were warm, welcoming, and accommodating.
Even with the uncertainty with the pandemic this year, the NWI owners and staff kept us in the loop with any new developments and were rooting for us the whole time. They were flexible and determined to give us the wedding of our dreams.
Nestleton Waters Inn is the kind of place where you feel that the staff, wedding coordinators, and owners are happy to be there and supporting you on your wedding day. The landscape, food and rooms in the inn impressed all of our guests. We had a perfect day and would not change a thing!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us create lasting memories at your home. Our "staycations" here have always felt like an escape, even though you're just a quick drive away. We were so fortunate to have been able to spend one last visit with you for our 10th wedding anniversary, and we were happy to have shared a few moments on the grounds with our son (while he stayed overnight at his grandparents' nearby). We wish you well as you enter retirement. Be blessed and well rested! Much Love, The Sawyers

I can't say enough about how wonderful Deborah, Helen and the rest of the team at Nestleton Waters Inn have been over the past two years as we planned - and - re-planned our wedding. We first visited the property in early 2019 and upon seeing the gorgeously manicured grounds and chatting with owner Deborah, we knew we had found our ideal wedding venue! What sets Nestleton apart from other venues is their all-inclusive pricing - everything from décor, high quality chef created menus, DJ and officiant - which makes it so much easier to plan and manage vendors.

We originally planned to have our wedding in May 2020, and when the pandemic first struck, Deborah was so accommodating and allowed us to postpone a full year out as we waited to see what would happen. When we decided to go ahead and have a legal mini-ceremony last June just as the province began to open up, we immediately thought to see if Nestleton would allow us to use their property for a couple of hours and they were more than willing to accommodate - they even ensured that the grounds were mowed and brought flower pots to help decorate the space for us, proving once again how wonderful they are to work with.

After another postponement on our full wedding reception due to lockdown, we finally celebrated on October 3rd this year. In spite of the many setbacks and ever changing rules, the Nestleton team never ceased in maintaining optimism that we would still be able to have a magical day, and they were right! Our family who stayed onsite at the inn were all thoroughly impressed by the entire team and many have mentioned that they want to come back for another stay, while all our guests raved about what a great find the venue was.

To Deborah, Eric, Helen, Chef Moss and the rest of the Nestleton team - we cannot thank you enough for everything you've done in helping us pull off such a wonderful wedding and elopement! We look forward to coming back in the future :)

My husband and I got married at this beautiful venue in July. With everything that has been going on with the pandemic, our experiences here with the staff were both accommodating and professional. We loved having our renewal of vows here and our guests couldn't stop sharing about how great the ambiance, food and staff were. We hope to come back again in the future to relive those beautiful memories!

Spectacular views and an amazing wedding venue. The food is very high end and I very much enjoyed my stay here. The rooms have beautiful decor and the staff are very helpful.

Especially with Covid delays, the staff at Nestleton Waters Inn were so supportive and communicative with rules/regulations and limitations. In 2020, I explained that my mother from the UK was not allowed in the country due to Covid travel restrictions and with limited hesitation Deborah assured me it was her upmost importance to ensure m mothers made it to the wedding and moved my wedding to 2021 without extra charge or penalty.
in 2021, we were able to have our dream wedding with my mother present and it was SO special <3
The grounds themselves are incredible and make for some gorgeous pictures! Even though we had a small wedding of 35 guests, we were allowed to use the tent (still respecting Covid rules) without extra cost.
Deborah really goes out of her way to make you feel special and her communication is always kind and considerate. Helen, the Wedding Co-ordinator is also fantastic! She put me in touch with all the vendors and assisted where needed. On the day she also ensured everything went smoothly. If I ever needed anything I just glanced in her direction and she was at my side instantly! She even helped me get toothpicks during dinner before we got ready for our sunset photos! She offered me some moleskin aid when she could see my dress was rubbing against my skin and causing me to go a little red. Her attentiveness was very much appreciated!
All the staff were friendly, welcoming and professional.
Honestly, I could go on and on! The rooms were beautiful and have amazing features like a jacuzzi bath! The food is incredible and Chef allowed me to customise my dish especially <3
I cant wait to come back for an anniversary dinner!

We happily tied the knot at Nestleton Waters Inn a few weeks ago. We had heard about Nestleton's amazing reputation, but when we actually went through the process from our first visit, to signing the agreement to overall planning the wedding to the day-of coordination, they FAR exceeded our expectations. They are an incredible group of people to work with, including all of their recommended vendors. You can see that each and every one of them really care about your wedding and go above and beyond to make you feel special. Helen, the coordinator and her assistants, Chef Moss and his team, the staff, Deborah and the family .... they each put everything they have into making your day the most spectacular day, ever. Back to the Chef, Chef Moss: WOW. the FOOD! It was absolutely perfect and our guests all loved it. We continue to get positive feedback. It is not a typical/standard wedding menu; they work with you to craft a menu that will both shock and excite your guests. And as for the venue, the grounds are perfect, the rooms are beautifully decorated and they really think of every need you might have (including a steamer for your dress, wine bottle openers, a proper dress hanger!?), and the staff are probably some of the nicest and most accommodating people you will ever meet. Everyone at Nestleton is very responsive and you can contact them anytime with questions and ideas. Also, they are very flexible to what your vision might be and can make mostly anything happen which is not typical at most wedding venues. On our wedding day, they made sure that the day ran smoothly so that we could enjoy every moment and be present. Even so much so, that they consistently kept us well hydrated (both high-quality H20 and special beverages of our choice ;) ), allowed us to try bits of all of our menu and did a fantastic job at keeping everyone on schedule throughout the entire night. We cannot sing their praises enough. If you are considering a wedding venue and want an outdoor location, THIS IS THE PLACE!! You will have the best day of your lives here! THANK YOU NESTLETON!! WE LOVE YOU!!! <3

Attendes a wedding here.
Excellent service. Stunning location. Fabulous food. Durham Region's best kept secret.

My experience at the Nestleton Waters back in February was nothing but the best! I stayed at the inn over a month. I was treated like Royalty! From the yummy start breakfasts to delicious dinners by chef Aaron made my stay as part of my home the entire time. Deborah and her team are awesome and will go above and beyond to ensure you are happy!
Thank you very much for such a wonderful experience!

Beautiful property. Very nice moden rooms with a rustic twist. Excellent service and freindly staff.

The staff at Nestleton exceeded our expectations in every single way. We couldn’t believe how organized and smooth our wedding went. The whole Nestleton team was amazing! They all truly care for each and every couple. The grounds are pristine!

Helen, our wedding coordinator, is amazing. She made planning our wedding so stress free…we always knew we were in good hands. Her attention to detail and commitment to us was above and beyond anything we could have ever expected. The food was amazing. Thank you Chef Aaron! Mike Gibbs did our flowers and they were everything I envisioned! DJ David was awesome and he played some Greek music for my guests too! Everyone had loads of fun! Our officiant Gary was perfect and so so helpful during the rehearsal and ceremony!

Our guests noticed how great the Nestleton team was and commented on how amazing Helen was. Everyone had a memorable experience, especially ourselves. Thank you thank you!

I would 100% recommend this venue for our wedding or just to stay there!

My girlfriend and I had such a wonderful time. The staff were very friendly and ensured that we both had a wonderful time. The Inn was stunning hands down we would both recommend this Inn. Breakfast had a wonderful 5 star restaurant/home cooked fusion feel. We stayed in the cameo suite, we were very impressed with how aesthetically pleasing it was.

We could not have picked a better spot for our wedding. It was the first place we visited and no other venue ever measured up, so it was an easy choice. They were professional to the end and the entire staff clearly take a lot of pride in their work.

Wedding food, in my experience, is almost always just ok but Chef Aaron and his team knocked it out of the park. Absolutely everything was delicious, fresh, and well prepared. We had a wide variety of dietary restrictions, and they were able to accommodate everything easily and willingly!

We will find a reason to go back here in the future, be it for another party or just a quiet weekend away from the city. Thank you so much to Helen, Deborah, Chef Aaron and the whole squad!!
