By invitation-only,
THE KAT FLORENCE RESERVE

At the very heart of Kat Florence's haven is the private Reserve, an exclusive 100-acre nature sanctuary that extends the guest experience beyond the hotel's historic limestone.
Accessible only to selected hotel guests and by invite-only, the Reserve estate includes Kat’s personal residence, and encompasses protected forest and wildlife, 2500 linear feet of secluded riverbanks and 100 acres of a private natural reserve of the famous Elora Gorge. Invited guests will experience the grounds with Kat’s Private Reserve Guide, exclusively one couple or suite at a time (to protect the land), to enjoy restorative forest walks, local wildlife spotting, and luxury picnics at the river. The conservation is not and will never be intended for the masses; Kat Florence passionately purchased this land in her hometown to ensure it never gets corporation-developed on, and that this sanctuary of her childhood remains lovingly cared for but vastly untouched for the plant and wildlife within.
Bringing the Reserve to life with Kat Florence is Theo Martin, her Private Guide, whose career as a protector and adventurer has included National Park Ranger and Hut Warden in New Zealand, extreme level Forest Firefighter all over Canada, Guide with Quetzal Trekkers in Nicaragua, Orphanage Volunteer Worker in Mexico and more. Having traversed all over the world through many different climates and terrains, including hiking seven of the eight great volcanoes, Theo’s deep knowledge of the outdoors enriches each guided experience, introducing guests to the Reserve's forests, riverbanks and wildlife.
