Tom was a great host friendly and accommodating! Cottage was rustic but clean. Loved the splash pad and the park right across the street and close to the beach! Great stay would definitely go back!
I love this place. Simple not luxurious. 5 minutes walk to main beach of Port Elgin. 5 minutes car ride to all grocery shops and main street. Bring your bedding and enjoy the summer vibes and beautiful nature. Tom very responsive and nice. This is my second time here and surely not last.

The location is great. The unit itself was okay. Unfortunately there was no mention in description of basement tenants. We rented the 3 bedroom. Be very aware there are basements tenants and you can hear everything through the floor.
The price for what we got was outrageous. The cabin was clean enough but tired and the place had a musty smell. Some strange guests that made us feel uncomfortable. Location was excellent, accommodation was sub par for the cost.

Ok stay. Very clean, nice beds and kitchen, cozy place, but there wasn’t enough hot water for the 4 people. Just one had the chance to have hot shower every night.

About a ten minute walk from the main beach where you can swim.
