    I had. Booked another location nearby but there were issues with the heat and a few other things. We were reassigned to this cottage. It is very small but was perfect for 2 people. We really enjoyed Pointe Pelee. I would stay again.

    Wonderful Summer Interlude
    My girlfriend and I had a wonderful stay at the lakeside cottage, which Paul had tastefully appointed. We loved the amazing view of the lake from the floor to ceiling windows and enjoyed a fire on the patio our first night before venturing over to Pelee Island our second day. Beds were super comfy and I can't think of one amenity we needed after arrival. We had some terrible storms Thursday night but enjoyed the sound of the waves crashing over the rocks. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises to go back.

    Property was amazing, very well appointed and comfortable, close to everything, amazing view and sunsets but just an FYI, for whoever was last to leave the property before us, is that 2 side doors were both unlocked and 4 windows were not locked, we will definitely consider renting this property again tho

    Beautiful calming view of the lake
    The cottage is tidy and cute, but the best thing about it is the gorgeous view from 2 sides. There is a flattened lot next door, and next to that a pretty wrecked house, but we looked the other way and focused on the stunning lake in front of us and the view of the little park on the other side. We really enjoyed the parks nearby, with lots of walking trails, and we loved the town of Leamington and the very nice beach. The only things on the negative side - and they were minor for us - - There were big black ants, probably from the very pretty willow tree hanging over the house. We didn't see any in the bedrooms, and were very careful not to leave any crumbs or food out. - The back door next to the big picture windows was stuck shut, so we had to go around from the kitchen to get to the patio - not a big deal. - The instructions for using the TV are hilariously sun faded (it took two of us and an iphone flashlight to solve the mystery) and it'll instruct you to use a Netflix account that doesn't exist anymore. - There's no paved walk or path from the parking pad to the door, so it was awkward dragging luggage across the lawn. None of the negatives were enough for me to give our stay anything less than 5 stars. It was perfect for us, calming, beautiful, peaceful, clean, and perfectly located.

    Sweet little cottage
    It was the perfect spot for my daughter and I for the long weekend! The cottage was clean and comfortable. The beds were super comfy! The view of the lake was amazing and the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks made for a good night sleep ! This cottage has all that you need. Bonus having Freddy’s restaurant and ice cream bar across the road! Would definitely stay here again!

    Fabulous location and Accomodation
    Thank you Paul for a great stay! this is a very well appointed and decorated cottage w/ 2 nice bedrooms and a GREAT feel. Will definitely stay again. It is located in what would be a busy "main street" in summer months (again for a cottage on a point), but really nicely located to a great restaurant and the Point Pelee park.. . when we stayed it was mid-fall and we had really poor weather and so weren't able to use the really great deck and fireplace... which would have been great, BUT we got to see stormy lake Erie up close and loved every cosy minute. the hosts left a wonderfully detailed and clear welcome book (soooo good) and a bottle of wine, which was perfect after a long day of driving. the kitchen is well appointed. the toaster used w/ any other appliance will blow the breaker, BUT it is a cottage... similarly the internet was quite slow by today's standard... but that's the point.. UNPLUG! it's such a great spot. you will not want to leave. See you again soon!
