This place is so cute and welcoming! We can’t say enough good things about staying here. The beds and other furniture are comfortable, it’s pet friendly, and has everything you need to enjoy the amazing view.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were first rate. The kitchen was well stocked, more than we expected. It was very quiet for sleeping and a beautiful location. We would visit again.
Beautiful cottage on the lake with outstanding views, clean beautiful decorated in all rooms of house and totally stocked with everything you need to have a great vacation. Highly recommend
The property is absolutely gorgeous. The view is breathtaking. This is our second stay. We made memories around the fire with family, enjoyed a meal with friends and sat around the chiminea listening to the waves crashing in. The cottage is so cozy and looks like something out of a movie its so perfect. We had a wonderful time.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Lake Houz. It's beautifully decorated and very clean. The House had everything we needed. It was very peaceful listening to the waves crash against the shore. Looking forward to another stay.
Very comfortable home with all you need. Very pet friendly. It would be really nice if there would be lake access from the home but this is minor compared to what it offers.Very nice place.
An incredible week there. Hosts were incredible. We had intended on using the Lake Houz for a “home base” for when we did activities in the area for our vacation but spent most of our time sitting on the deck overlooking the lake. The place was stocked well and was cozy for a nice day relaxing and then movie nights with the family. Overall amazing week and memories.
We enjoyed our stay. Inside is nice and clean. BBQ should be changed, it’s falling a part. Also, all outside chairs were covered in spiderwebs.

Hello -the bbq is 3 years old. I’d have appreciated knowing if there was an issue with it. I’ll have my handyman pop over to have a look. With regards to the spider webs and spiders - yes, we’re on the water and in the the southern most part of Ontario- it’s summer time & there are spiders. I do provide guests with cleaning supplies specifically for the outdoor patio furniture. I’m afraid It’s impossible to control. That’s lakefront country living.
Thank you so much Lindsay! We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay & hope you’ll visit again soon.
Please reach out to me if you’ll like to stay with us again!
Hope you made it back on time for the baseball game 😊
Enjoy the rest of your summer,
Thank you again,
Helene & Al
We love it here so much we've stayed a few times now. This really is a beautiful piece of paradise with something for everyone to enjoy. Fully appointed with everything you need. Close enough to any shopping or adventures you want to do yet located perfectly away from all the busy life. A real gem.
We've stayed here a couple of times now and just love it! Very clean, beautifully appointed and literally something for everyone. Hosts really care about your stay.
Thank you so much Huma!

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Cottonwood Lake Houz as soon as we saw it. We have a lot of fond memories of this place that we'd like to share with you.
Whether it is waking up in the morning to the sounds of birds & water breaking against the rocks, spending tranquil evenings sitting on the deck by the Chiminea sipping a cocktail, roasting marshmallows by the firepit, playing board games or watching TV by a roaring fire from the Woodstove; these are only a few memories you will experience!
Cottonwood Lake Houz is equipped with a fully functional kitchen that you will enjoy cooking in. Appliances include a Keurig coffee machine, dishwasher, fridge, electric stove, oven, microwave, toaster and an air fryer.
Work effectively and efficiently if you must by using the free high speed Wi-Fi service, the difference being you can do so from sitting on the deck by the water!
What makes this property unique
Modernized to offer all the necessary amenities plus luxuries for the ideal home-away-from-home.
Enjoy long walks on East Beach Road down to Hillman Creek while watching a stunning array of birds of different species.
Take in the tranquil views of Lake Erie from the deck or retreat inside to the peaceful solitude of life on the water.
When adventure strikes, you have plenty to choose from; Pelee National Park, Seacliff Beach, Pelee Island, Wine Country, and Craft Breweries are only minutes away by road!
