The Country White House is a quiet, secluded bed and breakfast located in the heart of Manitoba, five minutes from the city of Steinbach. Built in 1997 on 27 acres of wooded land, the house has a country feel while including all of the modern conveniences and features guests will appreciate. It is close to many unique shops and attractions, but is off the beaten path for those seeking privacy and tranquility. It’s a perfect spot for people looking for a quiet, relaxing stay and excellent home-cooked meals. Guests looking for a romantic getaway can request special meals, served under candlelight on the night of their arrival.

Owned by Claude and Marie-Paule Bourgouin, the house is full of rich, wood tones. It has a warm and comforting feel, and your gracious hosts help to make your stay as wonderful as possible. Upon entering the home, the first thing you will notice is the open design of the lobby featuring a spiral staircase leading up to the rooms. The warm lighting in the clean, luxurious rooms help you settle in to the home right away.

In the spring and summer, the sounds of the fountain in the front yard and the chirping of a variety of birds add to the atmosphere of relaxation. Guests are welcome to sit on the covered veranda and enjoy the sounds of nature. When the weather is pleasant, it’s a perfect place to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. Golfers have a wide variety of quality 9 and 18 hole courses within 20 km of the house.

In the winter months, as the snow blankets the yard, the warmth of the house is enhanced by the wood-burning fireplace located in the sunken family room. Visitors looking for outdoor pursuits are minutes away from cross-country skiing, snowmobile trails and sleigh rides. The house is a postcard image of a snowy Canadian winter.
