The inside is comfortable and clean. The outside deck is perfect - it’s large and partly covered so you can sit there all day plus there’s a huge yard which is peaceful and private. Communication was great and check-in was easy. The water wasn’t swimmable the days we were there due to bacteria levels and seaweed which was disappointing and it would be nice to have a better view of the water but it was nice to hear the waves at night. ##### Janice R.

Aug 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A quiet retreat This is a pretty little cottage in a private setting with many mature trees, and a short walk to the beach. You can see the lake from the cottage.The cottage is very clean and well-stocked with all of the supplies you will need. If you plan to cook, just bring your favourite spices. The cottage is a short drive to several local wineries that have good restaurants. We enjoyed Paglione for pizza, Cooper's Hawk for lunch, North 42 for lunch and dinner and View Pointe for a light lunch and a beautiful vista of Lake Erie. With one bathroom the cottage is perfect for a couple, or a couple with 1 - 2 kids. It will accommodate more if everyone gets along ;) Enjoy, relax, and bring your binoculars. ##### Carl K.
