It was great cottage, less the a minute to the beach. Backyard was great,lots of room for our dog. Most places had a size limit for dogs, this didn't. I would definitely go back again.

Location was excellent and lodgings were fine. At the price point, we expected a little more but overall experience was positive. We came as a family and brought food to cook; most of the pots and pans were old and we didn’t want to use them. The exterior was also covered in webs and old leaves; same with the chairs on the grass - a simple spray-down/sweep would solve most of these problems easily. Host was responsive, was accommodating and allowed us to check in early, and overall, we had a good time - would recommend more easily if the price reflected the quality of the experience.

Had an amazing vacation staying here. Plenty of room for everyone. We loved the large backyard with lots of games for our teenagers (and us) to enjoy! The beach is about a 1 minute walk to the sand! You can see the entry point from the cottage front porch. The central AC worked perfectly to keep us cool, even during a heat wave! Tons of space in cupboards and a secondary large capacity ice box for food. Lots of options for groceries within minutes from the cottage as well as a nice convenience store within steps. Spotlessly clean on arrival and super easy check-in. Wilson always responded right away before, during and after our stay, not that we needed to contact him for anything! We had everything we needed. You won't regret booking here!

Everything you need for a great vacation

Cottage has everything needed to enjoy your stay. Beds were awesome, lots of pillows and soft blankets. Half bath was an added bonus especially being off laundry room after a day at the beach. Had enough kitchen stuff to get by, air fryer was bonus as well as large separate freezer. Sunroom was nice for morning coffee or evening games. Enough space for everyone without being on top of each other. The outside area was very nice, fire pit was cozy and close. Mosquitos were bad after sun went down but to be expected. All in all it was just as advertised and the host was very fast to answer any questions we had. Definately recommend.

Somewhere In the Middle

Home was very nice. Lots of games and sun room is beautiful and the backyard is spacious. However, if you plan on bringing friends back to the place this place is not for you. I found it very odd as in my past other hosts allowed friends to go over. Kitchen pans are awful and caused the smoke alarm to go off on low heat. Showers were insanely cold. Overall, the place is nice but the kitchen supplies should definitely be upgraded, and if you want to bring people back to hangout this place is NOT for you.

Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the sunroom, the spacious backyard, and the variety of games—we aim to create a relaxing and enjoyable environment for all our guests. I understand you were hoping to have friends over, and I’m sorry this aspect of your stay didn’t meet your expectations. As noted in our listing and house rules, the cottage has a strict maximum capacity of 8 guests. Gatherings or parties beyond the registered guests are not permitted. The cottage operates under a Lambton Shores Short Term Rental Licence, and we are required to follow the guidelines set by the municipality, which include guest limits and noise regulations. Thank you also for your comments about the kitchen. While we provide a variety of cooking tools, including an air fryer for added convenience, I’m sorry the cookware didn’t meet your expectations. As for the smoke alarm, it typically activates when food is overheated or left unattended, but I’ll be sure everything is functioning correctly. I wasn’t aware of any issue with cold water during your stay—had I known, I would have sent our plumbing team to investigate right away. I appreciate you bringing it to my attention. Thank you again for your feedback. It helps us continue to improve, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.
