A portfolio built one different property at a time

The story

TNG managed this property from the very beginning, building the optimization strategy and listing foundation from day one rather than retrofitting an existing setup. TNG advised the owners on amenity investments chosen specifically to increase per-stay value and drive repeat and referral bookings: the garage was converted from a parking space into a heated game room, and a sauna and hot tub were added — both of which have become primary reasons guests book. Josh sourced and coordinated the contractors for both installations, managing each project from initial quote through final walkthrough. The property backs directly onto a river, and demand has remained consistent despite a resort operating in direct competition just up the street.

What makes it distinctive

“A river-backed modern home offering a full four-season amenity stack — sauna, hot tub, and heated game room — in one property. It holds its own against direct resort competition next door.”

The story

Owen’s House was a ground-up build — the property was completely empty when the owners handed over control, and TNG was involved from the very first piece of furniture through the first booking. TNG’s team worked alongside the owners to select every purchase and interior detail, including pot lights and a custom accent wall, with a full colour and theme scheme designed specifically to be photogenic. More recently, the owners expanded into the backyard with a full deck, hot tub, and landscaping build with a fire pit — a project Josh led personally as coordinator from planning through completion, sourcing and negotiating directly with irrigation specialists, electricians, the general contractor, and the hot tub installer, and managing all municipal requirements with the Township of Severn. The project was completed on schedule and within budget, with full municipal sign-off and no design rework required after ground broke.

What makes it distinctive

“The clearest showcase for TNG’s full-furnish, ground-up service line — and proof of what one dedicated coordinator can deliver end-to-end, from a full interior furnish to a major backyard capital build, including municipal approvals, contractor negotiation, and hands-on problem-solving when plans changed midstream.”

The story

At one bedroom and one bath, Wren’s Cabin is the smallest property in TNG’s entire portfolio — a compact, waterfront cabin tucked into the trees on Lake Simcoe in Hawkestone. Where a small unit like this often gets treated as an afterthought, TNG applied the same pricing discipline and demand management used across the fleet’s largest luxury builds: dynamic rate positioning against the local market, a self-check-in flow that keeps turnover simple, and consistent guest communication that has carried it to Superhost status within its first year listed.

What makes it distinctive

“The clearest evidence that TNG’s management system scales down as well as it scales up — a one-bedroom waterfront cabin consistently outperforming market occupancy, with the review record and repeat demand to match much larger homes in the portfolio.”
