Lakeside Mini-Hotel: An Investment with Growth Potential (Ontario, Canada)

Joshua and Emily’s Story:

“We had long dreamed of a hospitality business connected with nature. When we discovered a property by the lake, creating a mini-hotel seemed logical—the demand for cottage rentals is huge during the season. Traditional construction was too lengthy and required significant investment, so we sought a flexible, scalable solution.

We approached VIGO HOUSE to see if we could quickly and profitably create comfortable rental housing on our property.”

Solution by VIGO HOUSE:

“VIGO HOUSE recommended building three distinct Garden Suites tailored to various guest needs:

A compact studio ($180/night) perfect for couples and solo travellers.
A one-bedroom house ($250/night) ideal for families.
A two-bedroom house ($350/night) suited for groups and extended stays.

All three homes were energy-efficient, featured modern amenities, and panoramic lake views.”

The Result:

Guests of our mini-hotel are extremely satisfied, with many returning repeatedly. They especially love VIGO HOUSE’s idea of flat green roofs with BBQ areas and stunning lake views, a unique feature not available elsewhere. This became a decisive factor for many guests when choosing accommodation.

Additionally, VIGO HOUSE not only constructed the homes but also provided detailed budget estimates, including furniture, textiles, and even IKEA dishware, which eliminated financial surprises.

Why We Recommend VIGO HOUSE:

Turnkey business with complete support from planning to launch.
Energy-efficient homes using Net Zero Ready technology.
Clear budget forecasts with full transparency—no unexpected costs.
High occupancy rate (70% average), generating stable monthly revenue from day one.
