This 1930s cottage sits atop a bank overlooking the Lake and provides an extraordinary respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. Relax listening to the waves or watching lake freighters pass in the night. The area is full of charm, fun and nature: two nearby harbors, beautiful parks and beaches, 19 covered bridges, golf, birding hot spots, scenic overlooks, historic octagon houses, 24 wineries and many restaurants - quirky casual to fine dining. We're new to VRBO, but don't worry, you won't be disappointed. The cottage and hosts have catered to hundreds of happy guests after a reopening in 2019. In the short time since then, many guests have returned two or three times and some six times. Nothing speaks louder than repeat business! For decades this cottage was booked solid with regulars who had standing reservations. As guests and the owner aged the property remained well-maintained, but was never marketed and use diminished. We're thrilled to be able to begin sharing this special place again. The electrical and plumbing have been completely updated; the heating and cooling are new. By design, some original furnishings remain to maintain the original charm and character. In a few cases, there may be a bit too much character as we painstakingly work to restore some pieces to their former glory. The process will take time, but you'll find the space peaceful and comfortable with an unbeatable view. What Canary Cottage may lack in polish, it makes up for in charm. Our guests find it a wonderful antidote to the sterile and predictable lodging that’s too common – and they tell us the hosts are great too! :) For those who need modern amenities, we offer those too. We provide 47 live TV channels, streaming options via Roku or bring your own streaming device, e.g. Chromecast, Firestick or AppleTV to connect to an HDMI port A powerful router, discretely located in the living room, is connected to 200 Mbps internet service, making it perfect for those that have to catch up on work or just for uploading your photos of the lake! ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Porch/lanai ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the marina - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Unit size: 900 square feet ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114680000/114674800/114674743/616dbd05.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### LAKE VIEW!!!

Jun 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We spent a long weekend at the cottage on our first trip to Lake Erie with an 8 year-old and 7 month-old in tow. This cottage was in a quiet location yet only a minute away from a great park and beach area with free parking. I loved the charm of the old cottage and spent a lot of time taking in the view of the lake from the screened in porch. It was clean and the host was great with communicating with us. We would definitely stay here again. It provided for a relaxing trip for us. ##### Nicole D. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bill G.

This little house has spectacular views of the lake, and it relaxes you just to sit on the enclosed porch and listen to the waves lap. This place is a throwback to lake cabins of my childhood - not fancy, but very comfortable - except, I should note, with really good wifi for computers and streaming TV. Rick and his dad were super responsive when I asked anything and very unobtrusive the rest of the time, and both check-in and check-out were a breeze.

This was perfect. The cottage is comfortable and homey. It was a little cool for sitting in the backyard, but the enclosed back porch was perfect.

Homey and warm it was a cozy spot for a mini getaway. The weather was cold and gray but the lake was beautiful. Next time we hope to use the fire pit that was provided. They also had wood for us too, but the weather was temperamental. Very enjoyable little spot. Only wish it had a bit more counter space, but we go creative. The views were amazing and worth the drive. Thanks. ##### Andrew S. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### JoLynn Y. May 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Good but not great, cute but not charming I have sent a very long email to the owner, Rick, about all the problems we had at Canary Cottage. There were things we loved about the place and things that he thinks are “lack of polish,” “charm,” and keeping original character, but in reality are simply run down and needing repaired/replaced. The location and view of Lake Erie is amazing but there is no direct access to the water and no barrier to keep anyone from falling down the steep bank. This could be dangerous for children. There is no dishwasher, no central AC (one large wall unit,) no awnings/gutters/downspouts, no driveway or sidewalk to the front door (because of all the rain the front yard was a swamp,) limited workspace, and too few utensils. The microwave blows out a breaker every time it is turned on – the breaker box is behind the flower picture. The bathtub is so bad that I didn’t even want to stand in it, and clean towels are left out in the open near cooking odors. The hot water tank was not turned on, and the kerosene heater is a fire hazard that should be removed as the electric heater does a great job of heating the porch. We did not see eagles, but we did watch bulk carrier ships pass by. Go see the covered bridges – they are fascinating and each is unique in style. Go to the beautiful public park and beach a mile north and walk the brand new boardwalk, continue to the observation deck. You will have to drive to Ashtabula or Erie to eat out as we only found a few pizza places, McD, and DQ in town. ##### JoLynn Y. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Holly K.

It was nice to be able to walk to the the park and then come back to the cozy cottage. Nice screened in back porch to sit and watch the waves of Lake Erie. The owner looked up the weather, sent the idea of walking to park, had the greatest greeter to welcome us, and had water and treats waiting for us. Couldn’t ask for a better host! The personal details were very thoughtful. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again! ##### Jessica H.
