Our family had a wonderful time at the lake house. We all enjoyed swimming in the heated pool while listening to the waves of Lake Erie. Sitting on the deck just steps away from the lake was very relaxing. The house was very clean and accommodated our family of six (two kids were comfortable sleeping on couches on the main floor). It was a bonus to have the beach towels there for us to use. The first full day of our stay there was a crazy swarm of flies outside but just as quickly as they showed up, they went away. That might just be lake life in Canada. We would definitely return to the lake house for another vacation!

Loved staying for two weeks at this well equipped lake house. Comfortable and clean, with all the amenities you could ask for and more. The pool was amazing, we used it everyday and being right on the water was so peaceful. Hope to return for another summer vacation one day.

Perfect getaway

We had a short couple of days at this property and it was just what we needed. It was so relaxing being by the water and hearing the waves, all while taking a dip in the warm pool. The hosts were so kind and accommodating. The cottage had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We will definitely book this place again.

The pool was great although we didn’t use it because it was too windy and cool. Everything you needed was there. The complaint I have is the dirty oven in the kitchen stove. The BBQ was also disgusting. We still had a good time. We brought our own little BBQ thank goodness. Thanks so much Lucas.

Magical pool!

It was terrific other than the stairs. The one bathroom was downstairs , the stairs as they are, were difficult for us to negotiate with our wee boy. Other than that, it was amazing! The beach right at our feet and as my grandson said, "The magical pool!", in the backyard. It was also the best equipped cottage we have ever rented! I would highly recommend!

Colchester wedding accommodations, top notch.

Was a terrific venue for the family to stay for family wedding in Colchester. We gather for a 78th birthday celebration, we're able to jump on boat and seafood by wading out a bit. The pool and fireput definitely made the location top notch. Beds super comfy. Enjoyed all recent renovations and updates. Thank you do very much. We'll return!

We arrived at the property after a 5 1/2 hour drive only to discover that they did not expect us. The building was under construction . I have several e-mails confirming the date. Our vacation was spoiled. I will not book with vrbo again

A relaxing wonderful time

The cottage is just as described and the view is incredible. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. The pool was awesome. The steep stairs and main floor bathroom can be an issue for older folks who are up and down at night but the beds are super comfortable and the rest of the amenities make up for it.

A little Oasis

We very much enjoyed our stay. We did not get out of the pool all week even when there was cooler weather because the pool was heated. We visited the lavender farm and winery which was lovely and found beach glass on the beach in front of the cottage. After our little one went to bed, we enjoyed a glass of wine by the water. We felt like we traveled to a resort. We went in late June and the may flies were crazy! They are harmless but it required a lot of skimming of the pool and some even came home with us. Apparently June is their season. All-in-all it was a great vacation and we look forward to returning.
