Highly Recommended Rental

This home and our host - Jason are an A. This home was exactly as described but better. It is a lovely home but even more important, it is comfortable. The beds, pillows, LR furniture are all inviting and super comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and has what you need to cook a nice meal. The yard is stunning and well cared for with grass and gorgeous flowers. Jason was available for questions, before and during our stay. He was easy to work with. We will definitely stay here for our next trip to Canada!

The property is excellent for the view and outdoor space. The deck is spacious, and the fire pit & the added fire table were great, and good location for each. Inside was fine, nothing was overlooked as far as utensils and amenities. We did find the the one bedroom wall cutout was odd as it diminished privacy in that room, and would suggest closing it. The Master BR would have been nice to have black out curtains as an option. The patio door was too heavy in the family room for the ladies to close. Having said all that, we would recommend this place and have no hesitation considering renting it again. Thanks to the owner Jason for the allowed pet consideration and for keeping in contact throughout our 5 night stay.

Amazing Getaway!

This was the getaway we needed! It was everything we wanted and more. The view overlooking Lake Erie was incredible. The location is perfect; walking distance to the beach, restaurant, and a dozen great wineries just minutes away. The game room and pool table was a hit for breaks away from the stunning porch view. The home itself is warm and welcoming. Can’t wait for the next visit!

The accommodations were as described and any questions were answered quickly by Jason. It is a lovely area to visit with golf courses, excellent wineries and good food available. We had a rainy stay but still had a great holiday. We are planning our next trip to Point Pelee area already.

Our second time here and did not disappoint. The place is lovely. It has everything you need. The one problem was that the patio door was very difficult to open. Did not slide open or close very well. Other than that cannot complain about anything. Thank you Jason.

Modern home with excellent lake views

This home is very modern and has all the comforts of home, really enjoyed the decor. The best part of the property is the beautiful landscape and views of the lake. Great communication by the owner. Location was very convenient to the wineries and there was a beach within walking distance. It The only downside is that one of the bedrooms had an opening that looked over the stairs - so not exactly a completely private space.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property and the location. The lakehouse sits up on the bluff overlooking spectacular views of Lake Erie. In the distance you'll see freighters traversing the Great Lakes while up close there is an abundance of recreational boating as we are just a short distance from Colchester Harbour. A short drive from the property will lead you to a number of local wineries along the local wine trail.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location... Take a 5 minute walk up the street to the public beach, harbour, splashpad or local eatery. The lakehouse is located just a short distance from some of our treasured Essex County Wineries and a number of beautiful little towns. Visit historic Amherstburg or enjoy the restaurants and scenery of Kingsville. Travel a little further and you are at one of the most southern areas in Canada, Point Pelee National Park.
