We enjoyed the weekend visit at this amazing place on the water. The house was clean and had everything that we needed, what a relaxing time we had. The best part was walking down to our own beach and sitting by the water. We will definitely be back another time! 😍
Mary’s place on the beach is so lovely! It helped that I had the most perfect weather for my September vacation. The cottage is comfortable and the location is great - cottage in the city. Mary is a wonderful host to communicate with, and she ensured that all my questions were answered. Highly recommend!
A Beautiful Cottage Retreat! It's like a painting changing colors. The view is spectacular, the hostess was great, and you can't beat the location. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the property!
We had such a good time at this beautiful cottage/house. It was great to catch up with family who we hadn’t seen for a while. There couldn’t have been a more perfect place than Mary’s cottage. Set in a lakeside neighbourhood in Sarnia, it has 3 bedrooms, immaculately kept, professionally decorated, plus offers a well constructed deck overlooking a sandy beach that leads to the blue waters of Lake Huron and those awesome sunsets. We had the good fortune to meet Mary. She’s wonderful- very friendly and helpful. We’re looking forward to a return visit.
The location cannot be any better: in a very quiet area, yet 10 min drive to downtown Sarnia.
The house is very comfortable and clean. Plenty of sitting, dining, and relaxation spaces. My favorite was the sunroom, which provides great views of the lake.
There's a private deck right over the beach, and an easy access to the beach.
The sandy beach has a very gentle slope, and the clean water is perfect for swimming.
And I would like to especially thank Mary for being such an attentive host. Would love to come back here again!
I just came back from 5 nights in sarnia staying at this special home with the most spectacular views and sunsets. The furnishings are extra comfortable and beautifully decorated. The chaise lounger is a particular highlight. Loved the sun porch which stares right at the beach, with great views and the sound of the waves. It’s a very short bike ride to the River front area and Canatara park. I really can’t say enough about it and can’t wait to come back !! Mary is super responsive and sweet. Kitchen has everything you need to cook a good meal. Loved it !
This was my second time in Mary's house, and it just confirmed my first impression: the place is perfect:
* Location: as close to the lake as it gets, in a quiet neighborhood, yet, within 10 min drive from all necessities and Sarnia's Point Edward area with its restaurants, cafes, and so on.
* Outside: perfect beach (and you can walk on the beach all the way to Canatara Park), easy access to the beach, and the terrace right over the beach is a great place to relax.
* Inside: the house is very well kept, clean, and comfortable. My favorite place is a sun room - a great place to have a breakfast or to have a siesta after lunch....
* And of course a very friendly owner - Mary, and she keeps constantly improving the house and the grounds.
We had a great Stay. The beach was beautiful and the house was clean and looks just like the pictures. It is well stocked with all you kitchen needs and even a popcorn maker.
The house is a quick drive from pretty much everything. We went for a walk or a drive every evening. There are beautiful parks in the city and the Bluewater Bridge is somewhere we visited a few times.
We are a family of 4 our children are 2 and 5 and they had a great time. The children shared the bed. tip: We would put the kids to sleep in the separate bedrooms and then move the oldest to sleep with the youngest when she was finally sleeping, otherwise they would b screaming at each other all night lol.
Mary was very responsive and if we needed anything. We actually ended up leaving a few items behind and she kindly offered to ship it to us and we actually accidentally brought home a beach towel of hers and are sending it back.
We are planning to come back.
Unfortunately the laundry wasn't working which she had communicated to us prior to our trip, we over packed because of this. Hopefully next year it will be repaired so that we can try minimizing the the luggage.
Overall we recommend this to any small family trying to getaway from the hustle and bustle for a few days.
Beautiful home in a peaceful setting. The sight and sound of the waves from the lake were soothing. Kitchen adequately stocked with equipment and appliances.
What a wonderful stay! It was so relaxing and exactly as described. We stayed on a weekday so we got to see the Wednesday night sailboat race. The beach in front of the house offered a perfect location to watch from. We hope to be back next year!
Ideal place to just relax, sit by the waters edge and watch the sailboats and lakers on the lake. Of course, the sunsets are often quite spectacular. This year, we enjoyed a sandy beach leading to the lake. This wonderful 3 bedroom cottage is very clean, tidy and beautifully decorated. It’s set in a quiet neighbourhood and probably best suited for vacationers who enjoy quiet peaceful endeavours. We had a wonderful time and look forward to our next return visit.
This was the perfect stay! A decent bed, a beautiful beach and the lovely community of Sarnia to explore. Everything was perfect and as advertised... the elephant puzzle was tough!
We had a nice relaxing long weekend at this home which is exactly what we were looking for. We loved the easy access to the beach and just sitting on the deck listening to the waves while watching the sunset. The home was clean and comfortable. Everything we needed was less than a 10 minute drive away and within walking distance in some cases. Mary was was kind, available if needed and made the check in/out process easy.
A charming, cozy home/cottage overlooking beautiful Lake Huron. The view from the cottage is spectacular including: gorgeous sunsets and stunning sailboat races. We loved morning coffee on the deck overlooking the beach and lake. From there, a few solid steps took us down to the beach where we spent lovely days sun tanning and swimming in the clean Lake Huron water.
The gentle incline into the water and the clean beach make it a wonderful place for children to play. Nearby stores and restaurants make it easy to enjoy meals either at the cottage or out.
The owner is readily available to offer suggestions for entertainment and anything you might need.
We highly recommend this paradise. We will be back time and again.
It has been our 3rd consecutive summer renting Mary’s beautiful retreat with such fond memories. Big Sandy beach, clean lake water, spacious deck, friendly neighbours and well equipped and very clean cottage made for a relaxing getaway! Thank you Mary!
