In 1903 the Presbyterians of the farming town of Leeburn, ON built a beautiful church on the main street. Today, the town has only 5 residents and only four addresses. The church is now the last building on the left as you travel east on hwy. 638. The old church was purchased by its current owner in 2014 and is now extensively renovated to include kitchen, two bathrooms (one with shower), covered back deck and interior balcony.This beautiful church has been renovated to serve as both accomodations for campers and an inspiring facility for group activities, music performances, parties or just a quiet retreat. The lush original woodwork, vaulted 16ft ceilings and stunning stained glass windows make this property very special.

Church with gusto! TIP!
Robbie's Church is a utopian reprieve from a crumbling society. Nestled between some foothills just east (south?) of Sault Ste Marie, this idyllic pasture was perfect for our event. We rented his evolving space for an end of summer bash and were not disappointed. Multiple bathrooms and outhouses, the cutest dang bunkie ever, lots of places to pitch a tent, rustic living quarters, lofts everywhere, plenty of parking and a beautiful sunset. Robbie himself is a whirling dervish of a host who exceeded any needs we had and was a pleasure to rent from. Stay here if you're lucky enough to get a chance. You won't be disappointed. Trust!

This place is amazing! I rented The church for a reunion of old friends and it was the perfect venue run by the perfect host. The church itself is an eclectic mix of old charm with just enough modern amenities to suit our needs- Two bathrooms, wifi and a rustic yet functional kitchen. Plenty of nooks set up for sleeping including a separate cabin with sunrise views of the pristine Leeburn countryside. There is space for camping to accommodate any overflow. Although the listing says it’s downtown Leeburn, Leeburn itself seems to have a population of about Ten. This is definitely a rural getaway. Robbie is the type of host who doubles as entertainment. Never a dull moment. Make sure to check out his comics.
