Where the Historical village of Dunnattor Pier is. There is a public beach and park with stairs going down to the shore.
If you want to relax back at your retreat, there are two decks to enjoy the peace and tranquility and take in the open prairie sky. Enjoy a meal alfresco with all the your cooking needs supplied. There is more room on the flagstone patio to barbecue or for a evening bonfire.
There are trails right across from the property along the railway tracks. Take a bike ride to Winnipeg Beach or a 5 minute car ride . There you will find groceries , beer, ice cream and restaurants.

A spacious and beautiful country retreat, a short walk to the lake. Four of us were here for the Gimli Film Festival and this cottage was an excellent base camp. Owner communicated well with us. Cottage is well equipped and the several decks are delightful options for dining. Highly recommend this place and this Host!

Sadly so terrible! Dirty place, contaminated water and a rude host!

The location is wonderful, great natural light and nice decks and yard! However the home was dirty upon check in, so we spent a while cleaning it. Then the water was black and smelled of sulfur. The strong smell was giving us a headache and making us nauseous. We politely expressed concerns to the host who was offended and very rude. We eventually had to check out after a day because the water still would not run clear. The host would not refund us our money and was not the kind person we initially thought she was. We got sick as a result of the contaminated water, including my 6 month old son. But the host still did nothing to remediate the situation, she never even said the words “I’m sorry” once! Not the type of experience you hope for when staying in friendly Manitoba! There are other places to rent in the area, I strongly recommend renting elsewhere for your stay! Rent from someone who will care about your well-being! Sadly Annette did not even care about even a 6 month olds well-being.

About the host

Hosted by Annette Marion

Host profile image
I love to host because I love to travel . I love meeting people from all over the world . I know I would rather stay in some one’s home when I am travelling rather than a hotel. It is so much more personal. You get to see how other people live.

Why they chose this property

I choose this area because I love being by water. It is so beautiful and peaceful. It is not far from Winnipeg , an hour. Selkirk is 1/2 hour and Winnipeg Beach is 3 minutes and Gimli is 15 minutes. There are beautiful sunsets and beautiful sunrises .

What makes this property unique

It is on a corner lot so there is no one blocking your view of the sunset. There is an open field and the railway tracks. It is very private but yet close. It is only 4 houses away from the lake. The sun comes flowing in all directions. There is a lot of light and big windows facing south and west.
