"The rooms are above crabby Joe's (excellent restaurant by the way) was a bit unsure at first as the entrance is not the Greatest, run down. But the room was nice and clean nothing fancy. The bed was hard though and should have had some sort of mattress cover. Overall it was a good spot, about 15 min walk to beach which of course was extremely packed. We ended up going to pinery provincial park, worth the 20 entrance fee. Less crowded. Would stay again"

10/10 Excellent
"Travelling as an extended family of 8 adults, we had a wonderful stay at this property.Property was clean and tidy upon arrival, the kitchen was stocked with everything we required, all beds were comfy and there was enough space for 8 around the dining table. The TV/Games room provided a comfortable place the the younger adults to escape to and read/play.Air conditioning was excellent with easy control and full coverage throughout the property.The outside space was comfortably and great for watching the many squirrels and the occasional chipmunk or racoon.The hot tub was great for relaxing in.The beach was about a 30 minute walk away or 5 minutes in the car. While parking was limited, we always found a space. Watching the sunset from the beach was stunning.We had issues with the Microwave/extractor tripping the breaker, but host responded quickly when contacted and advised us to switch it fully off/on at the breaker box in the laundry area (only blue switch in the breaker box). This issue occurred most days during our stay, so hopefully this will be something that the host investigates further and rectifies. This was a small inconvenience and did not in any way spoil our stay.Some recommendations for visiting:Little Boo's Sweet Shop (Weekends - Literally a few doors away and offer good coffee and lovely bakes)Grog's Pub & GrillPinery Market (Sunday)Huron County Museum/Goal (Goderich)Grand Bend BeechGrand Bend Speedway / Go Karts"
