Peaceful cottage amongst the trees.

This cottage was perfect for our trip to explore Tobermory. It was clean with modern amenities and nestled in the trees. I would highly recommend the nearby Devil's monument hike.

The check in was good. Owner responded quickly. Unfortunately the balcony and the firepit had to be cleaned before they were used. All the windows were filled with dead bugs. I had to also clean the kitchen window because it was impossible to use the sink while looking at the amount of dead insects and dirt in the window. Also the same problem in the washroom . This problem was very gross in a beautiful cottage. The livingroom couch definitely needs to be replaced. Having to clean before relaxing was annoying.

Quick weekend stay

My husband and I stayed here for our baby moon so that we could visit Tobermory but also have our own space in the evenings to enjoy nature and have a campfire. The communication with the host was wonderful, check-in was very smooth, and all necessities were provided. We didn’t mind having to bring our own sheets, since we often do this anyways. Overall it was a pleasant stay amongst nature :)

A Nice Property, but Cleanliness was Lacking

Overall, the location of the property is good, and the amenities were accurate to the listing on VRBO. Unfortunately, the cleanliness of the property left much to be desired. The linens provided (two hand towels and one bath mat for the shower) were noticeably musty and were certainly not cleaned before our check in. The floors in every room were incredibly dirty, leading me to vacuum upon arrival. The mattress in the main bedroom was stained, which was easily noticeable while putting linens on the bed. Bringing your own linens to a cottage is completely normal, but the property owner should ensure that the rooms and mattress are clean. The septic is located in the back of the property, where the firepit is, and we noticed that a pile of what looked to be baby wipes/ other non-flushable products had been pulled out of the septic tank and left on top of the lid. This was easy to spot since you walk over the septic lid to get to the firepit area. All in all, the entire cottage could do with a good deep clean. I have visited the Bruce Peninsula many times, and decided on this property over other less expensive options available in the hopes that it would be cleaner than some cheaper properties. To my disappointment, this was not the case.

Formidable

We had a two night stay. The place was exactly like on the picture if not better. Very clean, all you need in the kitchen, all new appliances, games, and absolute peace. Just two minute walk to the lake to which you see through the window. Very big backyard which we didn’t use, neither did we use the Big TV. Near many attractions. I recommend this place to everyone who’s travelling in that area.

A perfect home base to explore the Bruce

The cottage is even nicer than it appears in photographs. We found it to be very clean, comfortable, well-appointed and equipped. It is conveniently located, close to Bruce Trail access points and roughly equidistant from Tobermory and Lion's Head. (We found the bed mattresses to be a trifle soft - but that is of course a matter of personal taste.) The owner is both responsive and congenial. Recommended without reservation or qualification.
