CanadaStays is Canada's largest vacation rental resource, largely given that it is unchallenged, but in saying so, it's pretty surprising given the span and variety of the country. Included in the listings are thousands of cottages, cabins, lodges, bed & breakfasts, resorts and much more.

CanadaStays recently announced a long-term partnership with HomeAway, an international rental site, which will HomeAway's crop of Canadian properties listed along with CanadaStays core selection of 30,000 rental properties.
