YOUR GROUP.
Your Motel
Take over all 13 rooms and make Penny's your private playground. From crisp winter saunas to lazy summer afternoons by the pool, this is your space to reconnect, celebrate, and make some memories. Whether it's a team retreat that doesn't feel like work, a milestone birthday with your favourite people, or just a weekend away from it all, we've got the keys to your Thornbury escape.
When you book out Penny's, you're not just getting a block of rooms; you're getting a private slice of Georgian Bay life. Each season here has its own rhythm, its own adventures. This is your hideaway, your basecamp, your home while you're here.
All year.
ALL YOURS.
THE OFFSITE
That Doesn’t Feel Like One….
Trade the windowless conference room for a courtyard fire pit. Take over all 13 rooms and Penny's becomes your team's basecamp — work sessions by the water, laptops closed by 5, oysters and wine by the fire.
We handle the food and drink for the whole group, so nobody's hunting down a coffee order or booking a dinner reservation for twenty. Fast WiFi, common spaces built for breaking into small groups, and a team here who's done this before.
Weekday and shoulder-season dates go quickly — worth asking early.
Spring mornings with fresh espresso and trails along the escarpment.
Autumn fires with harvest wines.
Summer afternoons in the courtyard or by the cowboy pool.
Snow-covered nights with sauna steam and Après cocktails.
With 13 rooms sleeping up to 30 guests, it’s perfect for executive retreats, reunions, wedding parties, or a full-on friends’ escape.
YOUR PRIVATE Playground
When you take over Penny’s, everything can be yours: the courtyard, the sauna, the firepit, the Après snack bar, and all the cozy corners in between. Whether it’s a strategy session over coffee, a summer pool hang, or a fireside toast under falling snow - you set the tone.

FAQ’S
Is there space to actually work?
Yes — the courtyard, lounge, and common areas all flex for meetings, and we're happy to help plan the flow of your day.
Can you handle meals for the whole group?
That's the easy part. Chef-hosted dinners, the Après bar, coffee that's actually good — it's all part of the takeover.
What's the minimum stay for a full buyout?
To get the full Penny's experience, corporate group buyouts require a minimum two-night stay. We believe the best ideas, strongest connections, and most memorable moments happen when there's time to settle in—not just check in. One night flies by; two nights gives your team the chance to unplug, connect, and make the most of everything Penny's has to offer.
